Description
Top Cottage is a most deceptive property enjoying a tucked away position in the very heart of the village of Burton close to the pub, farm shop and café. The cottage's front elevation only shows a hint of the property which occupies a private location, complete with its own parking, a garage and home office with en suite that could be a potential annexe. The main access to the property is via the rear driveway which is accessed from Toll Down Way.
The cottage has been largely extended over the years, is well appointed and beautifully presented throughout. The main accommodation extends to around 1,435 sq.ft. Arranged over two floors. A reception hall looks straight out across the garden through double doors and leads into the kitchen/dining room. The kitchen has been refitted with a bespoke Neptune kitchen and Ca’Pietra stone flooring. The living room also flows out to the garden and has a cosy aspect from a fireplace with wood-burning stove. Adjoining the reception hall there is a utility room with rear access and downstairs WC. Upstairs, there are four bedrooms. The spacious main bathroom is equipped with a roll-top bath and separate shower unit. The principal bedroom features an exposed stone wall, extensive fitted wardrobes and an en-suite shower room. There is Amtico flooring within the entrance hall and family bathroom.
The garage/outbuilding enhances the accommodation with the excellent addition of a versatile room with underfloor heating downstairs which could be used as home office or ancillary accommodation, currently dressed as a guest bedroom complete with en suite shower room, and could equally be used as an annexe or additional reception space. The garage has driveway parking in front, plus loft storage above, power, lighting and water connected. The garden benefits from a sunny south-facing aspect landscaped into two principal terraces. The lower terrace adjoins the back of the cottage with a patio terrace, lawn and path leading up to the second terrace which serves the garage/annexe complete with a timber decking area.
Situation
The village of Burton lies on the southern tip of the Cotswolds and is in an area designated as being of Outstanding Natural Beauty close to the quintessential village of Castle Combe. The village comprises a variety of old cottages, farmhouses and larger country homes. The property is located within an easy short walk of the village amenities which include the popular public house/restaurant 'The Old House at Home', the well-stocked farm shop with café, a play area and the parish church. There is a bus service to local schools conveniently close to the property while this vibrant community hosts an array of clubs and a monthly village newsletter. The village is surrounded by beautiful Cotswold countryside with an abundance of walking routes to enjoy and explore. In the neighbouring village of Acton Turville (0.5 mile) there is a convenient shop and post office as well as the Fox and Hounds pub. More comprehensive amenities can be found in the market town of Chippenham and the Georgian City of Bath both of which have main line rail links to London. The property is well placed for access to major road links including the M4 (Junction 18) and the A46 both within just a 10-minute drive. The road networks provide excellent access to Bristol, Bath (both 25 minutes), London and the south-west.
