Woodmancote Farm is a beautiful late 17th century vernacular Cotswold stone, Grade II listed, character farmhouse situated at the foot of Cleeve Hill and the Cotswolds area of outstanding natural beauty. Constructed over three floors, it is a substantial (over 4,000 sq ft), solidly built, comfortable family home, set in an approximately third acre cottage garden, with ample off-road parking and garage space. It has an abundance of original character features, such as stone tiles, an ancient well and dovecote, stone mullioned windows, leaded lights, exposed beams and inglenook fire places.
