Charming mid-terrace Cotswold cottage.
Description
Situated in the prized village of Lower Swell and overlooking neighbouring countryside is Leys Cottage, a traditional mid-terrace Cotswold cottage. The property is very well presented with accommodation set out over two floors. On the ground floor is a charming sitting room with wood burning stove set within an inglenook fireplace. There are shelves and cabinets to either side of the fireplace. An arch leads to the kitchen which is fitted with a good range of cabinets. There is plenty of space in the dining area for a good sized table. Double doors open to the garden. A door from the dining area leads to a very useful utility room. Completing the ground floor accommodation is the family bathroom.
A staircase leads from the sitting room to the first floor where there are three bedrooms, one of which is en suite with a walk in shower. Bedrooms one and three benefit from fitted cupboards.
The enclosed garden lies to the rear of the property and is principally laid to lawn with a paved terrace from which to enjoy wonderful rural views.
The property is very well-presented and will appeal particularly to buyers looking for a weekend retreat or investment property with a proven track record.
Location
Leys Cottage is located in the quintessential and picturesque Cotswold village of Lower Swell which supports a church, a primary school and a pub. Most of the properties in the village date back to the 16th and 17th centuries and are constructed from Cotswold stone. Nearby Bourton-on-the-Water (two miles) and Stow-on-the-Wold (one mile) both provide excellent facilities for day-to-day shopping with supermarkets, libraries, banks and a range of speciality shops. The Daylesford organic and lifestyle shop is six miles away.
Cheltenham (20 miles), Cirencester (20 miles) and Stratford-upon-Avon (22 miles) provide extensive cultural, shopping and leisure facilities. The area is renowned for educational establishments including The Cheltenham Ladies’ College, Cheltenham College, Dean Close and The Cotswold School.
There are golf courses at Naunton Down, Chipping Norton, Burford and Broadway. National Hunt Racing at Stratford-upon-Avon and Cheltenham. Stratford-upon-Avon is also home to the world renowned RSC. There are fine walks via an abundance of bridleways and footpaths for the horse riding and walking enthusiasts.
The Cotswolds’ year is packed with events ranging from world famous international festivals like Cheltenham Literature Festival and Cheltenham Gold Cup Week to major musical events such as the Wilderness Festival, Cornbury Festival or the Big Feastival, as well as a jam-packed events calendar featuring concerts, exhibitions, arts and literature festivals and theatrical productions.
