Description
Private grounds and countryside are the background to this superb family home which occupies c3.5 acres of its own land and gardens. Forming a small cluster of properties on this country lane, it is a significant home to the village as the original farmhouse, which dates back to 17th century. The idyllic semi-rural setting yet easy accessibility into the village of Westbury, beautiful walks and riding countryside and quick access for the commuter to major links and towns, are all elements that make this an extremely special place in which to live. This is the first time in 40 years that Gatwick Farm House has come to the open market and whilst lovingly maintained, it would now benefit from a series of cosmetic enhancements internally yet the annex, The Cowshed, was converted only 5 years ago making a wonderful, modern addition, ideal as a let.

The layout is traditional of its farmhouse heritage, large rooms with period detail including an inglenook fireplace, leaded light windows and beams to some of the rooms makes it a home of charm. With the internal accommodation extending to over 3250 Sq Ft, it is generous in size and could be rearranged to suit family requirements, should a prospective owner wish, as it is not listed. There are two points of entrance, one is via a porch and door into the kitchen/dining room, which is a classic cottage kitchen with tile flooring and an Aga set into the brick recess. Adjacent is a cloakroom, a utility and attached to this, a wood store and from the other end of the kitchen a set of steps leads down to the cellar. A further door opens into the stairwell and sitting room, a lovely double room with an inglenook fireplace and access to outside via the principal entrance door and porch with a fitted window seat. From here is a study, enjoying a double aspect outlook.

The bedrooms are accessed from a set of stairs between the kitchen and the sitting room, on the first floor are three equally generous bedrooms, all double in size, sharing a bathroom and separate toilet off a landing. There are two unconverted loft rooms on this level, currently used as storage, which would benefit from being remodelled and incorporated to enhance the bedroom space. On the second floor are two further double bedrooms and a shower room.

Outside
Externally, the house offers approximately c3.5 acres made up of acreage and gardens which wrap the main house, the outbuildings and The Cowshed. There are several access points from the house that lead to the private gardens, which are more formal in style with hedged boundaries. There is also a small, separate area of woodland. The grounds are filled with an abundance of fruit trees and mature planting; making them private and an ideal spot for a small-holding. The outbuilding is also a significant part of the plot, a substantial unconverted barn which is currently arranged as space for garaging, a chicken coop and storage, accessed by two sets of traditional stone steps to the side and front. This would naturally lend itself to conversion, subject to the necessary planning. Behind here, discreetly positioned away from the main house, is a converted Cowshed with one bedroom and en suite adjacent to a sitting room with kitchenette. This has been successfully let since its conversion, generating a supplementary income for the owners.

Situation
Westbury-on-Severn is a charming country village with an active local community, a parish church, primary school, Doctor’s surgery and pub in addition to the highly acclaimed Severn and Wye Smokery, which has become a renowned place to eat both for locals and those coming just to visit it. Westbury’s local amenities are excellent, day to day, yet it is within a short drive of both Gloucester and the market town of Ledbury and for a broader selection the popular hubs of Cheltenham and Ross on Wye are both reachable by car in under 30 minutes. The surrounding countryside is beautiful and offers access to extensive walking and riding paths including river and woodland walks. Schools within the local area are excellent and the choice for Grammar, state and private are superb, with local and well reputed The Kings School in Gloucester centre, a mere 9 miles and in Cheltenham, just c15 miles, more comprehensive options at both Junior and Senior level.
