Forming an integral part of the street scene of one of the most picturesque villages in the North Cotswolds, and within earshot of Longboroughs gently cascading Ash well , this semi-detached, three storey, three bedroomed early Victorian Cottage combines the innate character and charm of a period dwelling with many other contemporary refinements of modern day living.
The current property is the result of a fusion of an original cottage with a separate outbuilding which has subsequently been extended creating an en suite shower room to the ground floor bedroom or study. The connection has resulted in the creation of a stone flagged central dining hall with full height picture windows over looking the westerly facing rear garden.
The spacious through living room has a Victorian fireplace, and original shutters to both front and rear windows. There are many antique crittall windows and latches complemented by many modern louvred shutters.
More contemporary confinements include gas fired central heating, a stylish modern fitted kitchen with a range of integrated appliances and a modern bathroom suite on the first floor, which also has a double bedroom in addition to a further double bedroom on the second floor, with superb views over the surrounding countryside.
Externally, the property has a courtyard garden to the rear for al fresco dining and steps ascend to a higher level garden taking full advantage of the afternoon and evening sun.
The property could not be more centrally located within the village, and is only a few hundred yards walk from Banks Fee House, the concert hall to which is host to the Longborough Promenade Festival Concert in the summer time, which is one of the highlights of the Cotswolds season.
The village is located midway between the famous market towns of Stow-on-The-Wold and Moreton-in-Marsh, which has its own railway station with links to Oxford and London Paddington. The village has its own public house, village shop and primary school and there are fabulous walks to be enjoyed in the surrounding Cotswold countryside.
Whilst ideal as a main home, the property would be perfect for those looking for a supplementary home or indeed a holiday cottage for investment purposes.
The property offers vacant possession on completion and there is no onward chain.
