Property details

Bedrooms: 3

Offering a contemporary twist to a traditional Cotswold stone cottage with spacious light and airy inverted accommodation, with the living room on the first floor, this detached two storey, three bedroom individually styled home can only be fully appreciated by internal inspection which is strongly recommended.

Initially redeveloped in 2003 the property has been substantially extended over recent years to provide an open plan living room and dining room with 13ft high apex ceilings and exposed roof trusses and a large side Juliette balcony. There is a stylish fitted kitchen with central podium, solid oak parquet work tops and a good complement of units and appliances. There are modern bathroom suites both on the ground floor and the first floor.

Other notable features include exposed solid oak floors on the first floor which also has a walk round facility and some attractive views and there are three double bedrooms on the ground floor. Externally the gardens are divided into two sections with an enclosed patio ideal for alfresco dining and a south facing elevated lawned garden incorporating off street parking for one vehicle.

The property is positioned in a quiet residential cul-de-sac in the centre of this popular North Cotswold village between Blockley, Draycott and Moreton in Marsh (where there are rail links to London Paddington). The property is in the catchment for Blockley primary school and Chipping Campden secondary school.
