Description
An impressive six bedroom detached home offering excellent and practical accommodation that extends to over 3400 sq ft all set in the most beautiful plot in a tranquil village location with views over fields to the Cotswold Hills beyond. The accommodation is both flexible and practical with a well-planned layout that is traditional of this style of house, offering bedrooms on the ground floor allowing for the rooms to be used as required to suit all genres.
Entrance is via a wide and welcoming reception hall which introduces both the living rooms to one side and three bedrooms and a bathroom, including one with en suite, to the other. The study acts as a central point to the accommodation linking the impressive principal living areas that have been designed in more open plan style, with dedicated areas for dining, cooking and sitting. The kitchen is contemporary in style, a wonderful space that offers an excellent range of modern units, integrated appliances and an island, with a breakfast bar seating arrangement. From here, an opening leads into the dining area and further into the sitting room, with its vaulted ceiling and under floor heating for comfort. A double sided chimney breast provides a natural distinction between the two areas, this would make a lovely fireplace should one require. To complete the downstairs accommodation there is a utility room from the kitchen as well as a cloakroom, which can be found off the study.
The first floor accommodation enjoys a primary bedroom, with views across the surrounding fields, as well as an en-suite bathroom, with under floor heating, and a private terrace for seating. Also, on the first floor are two further double bedrooms that are serviced by a Jack and Jill style en suite.
