3 bedroom detached house

Mansills House is grade II listed and is believed to be over 400 years old in part, built of mellow lias stone with Cotswold stone mullion windows and quoins under a Cotswold stone roof providing beautiful traditional elevations, with a south-facing conservatory overlooking the garden. The property has been in the same ownership for over 40 years. Most windows take full advance of the views.

The house incorporates traditional features, including flagstone floors, ceiling beams, lovely handmade elm-boarded doors, stone mullion windows with metal casements and traditional dormers on the second floor.

Reception hall with cloakroom off with flagstone floors. There is a fine stone inglenook to the drawing room, with stone fireplace inset with stone slate canopy and flagstone floor. Fitted kitchen with painted units with tiled tops, shelves and cupboards, with double bowl sink, dishwasher, cooker and gas hob. There is a large utility room with a tiled floor which houses the boiler, with a sink and plumbing for a washing machine and dryer. A glazed porch has double doors to the garden and to the large timber double-glazed conservatory, which has a tiled floor and low lias stone walling. The conservatory will benefit from updating.

Double bedroom two is currently used as a sitting room with a traditional dressed stone fireplace with gas fire and window with timber shutters and built-in cupboards and shelves to one wall.
