Arranged over three floors, the house underwent significant renovation in 2016 by the owner, creating a fabulous interior-designed finish to an otherwise historic country house. Having retained its period character, the house has charm in abundance with the benefits of the classic Georgian detail in the principal reception rooms with notable features including sash windows with large glass panes, ornate fireplaces, high ceilings, window shutters and wide panelled doors. A brief description of the principal accommodation follows below and further detail of the arrangement of the rooms can be seen in the floor plans enclosed.
The West Wing (Ground Floor):
The ground floor of the west wing may offer potential as annexe. This entered internally from the Rear Lobby but can also be entered separately directly from the drive. Please refer to the floor plans for the layout of accommodation, which comprises:
Boot room, Laundry, storeroom, entrance lobby, shower room and sauna. The Games Room/Family room has a vaulted ceiling with exposed beams and large windows overlooking the walled garden to the west.
Gardens and Grounds:
Brook House has a wonderful garden with a little steam (The Avening Stream) running through it. Formal areas lie in front of the house with a stone paved terrace and a traditional walled garden at the rear, in which there is a fine Victorian greenhouse, refurbished by the current owners. Beyond the walled garden to the north is a small paddock on the far side of the stream. In all the grounds extend to about 2 acres.
Avening is an historic Cotswold village situated about 3 miles north of Tetbury and 12 miles west of Cirencester. The village which is set in a gentle valley has many fine houses and cottages, pub, and a popular
