Outside:
The plot of Parrs Farm is very special, to the side is a large area for off road parking behind electric gates and to the rear, the gardens unfold. Enjoying the most private of positions, the gardens are a particular feature, extending to over c0.55 acres of level lawns which are well planted and planned with a variety of trees, flower beds and curated hedgerows. The River Isbourne forms a natural boundary to Parrs Farm adding to the rural feel of the position with the backdrop of the rolling Cotswold escarpment and the fields of Sudeley Castle. Adjacent to the house, sharing the large patio terrace, is an outbuilding which was used for many years as a bakery. Subject to the necessary planning, it could be converted for further usage if required.
Situation:
Over the years Winchcombe has established itself as one of the most sought after Cotswold towns to live in. Its status has been retained, in part, by the growth of the amenities on offer in the cultural town centre, offering the discerning buyer a wonderful choice of coffee shops, boutiques and restaurants, in addition to some beautiful Cotswold pubs, a doctor's surgery, butcher, bakery, well stocked shops and a florist to name but a few. Schooling in the area is particularly good with a well reputed primary and secondary school. Positioned in an Area of Outstanding Natural beauty, it is noted for its rolling hills and open countryside, which makes for some of the best walking and riding landscape in The Cotswolds. Whilst beautifully semi-rural, it has the benefit of being extremely accessible, which has enhanced its popularity, with the larger centre of Cheltenham only six miles away. A fashionable hub home to well-regarded festivals and exceptional schooling, including Cheltenham College and The Cheltenham Ladies’ College. For the commuter, transport links are strong with regular bus routes between Cheltenham and Winchcombe, easy access to the M5 at Tewkesbury and the M4 corridor via the A40/A419. There are direct trains from Cheltenham to London and from Kingham, which can be reached by car in 35 minutes.
