Description
This very pretty Grade II listed end of terrace cottage is situated down a quiet no-through lane within the highly-sought after village of Westonbirt enjoying a peaceful open view across fields opposite. Formerly part of the Holford estate believed to date back to c.1854 and designed by Lewis Vulliamy, the cottage features attractive Cotswold stone elevations beneath a stone slate roof with a striking steep gabled porch complete with chamfered Tudor arches and an original plank front door. Internally, much character has been retained throughout. The cottage sits well within it's plot and it is considered to have great scope for extending, subject to planning.
The accommodation is arranged over two floors extending to around 882 sq.ft. The front porch opens to the large dual-aspect reception room boasting flagstone flooring and an open fireplace. The rear fitted kitchen has a side lobby off with rear access. Upstairs, there are two bedrooms and a spacious bathroom.
The cottage is set amongst wonderful gardens of around 0.15 acres. A driveway to the side provides private off-street parking for numerous vehicles. The gardens include a front lawn, a secluded rear seating terrace beside a store shed, whilst there is an additional larger garden laid mostly to lawn with an elevated position overlooking the field beyond.
Situation
Westonbirt is an unspoilt charming village situated in the south Cotswolds and was recently quoted in The Times as being one of the top 30 places to have a second home. The village is world renowned for its famous Arboretum which also plays hosts to various cultural events and concerts. Westonbirt School is on the doorstep and has a modern leisure centre and swimming pool as well as a 9 hole golf course open to the public. In addition there is a parish Church and The Hare & Hounds hotel and bar. The area is ideal for those with equestrian interests as Beaufort Polo Club is close by and the property is within Monday country of The Duke of Beaufort's Hunt as well as being close to both Badminton and Gatcombe horse trials. Sherston, at about two miles away, provides 2 public houses, an excellent village stores/post office, butchers, café and other amenities whilst the popular market town of Tetbury is about 2.5 miles away. Well known for its 17th and 18th Century architecture and antique shops, Tetbury has a wide range of everyday shops, exclusive boutiques and shops as well as two supermarkets. The larger centres of Cirencester and Bath easily accessible and provide a more extensive range of shopping and recreational facilities. The property is conveniently located with access to the M4 at Junctions 17 and 18 which provide easy access to London as well as Bristol where it links with the M5. There are regular rail service to London Paddington from Kemble, about ten miles away, taking approximately 75 minutes.
