Property description & features

  • Grade II* Listed
  • Elegant and well-proportioned
  • Private mature grounds
  • Ancillary accommodation and outbuildings
  • Tennis Court
  • 12 acres
This beautiful country house dates originally from the late 17th century, with later additions. Rightly listed Grade II*, the house is of great architectural merit and shows a fascinating mix of styles. The main front is Regency, dating from c.1824, with elegant sash windows and a curved porch having a Venetian bow window above. The Regency part of the house has typically elegant rooms with excellent ceiling heights and fine plaster cornices. The drawing room and dining room are on either side of the hall which has a beautiful cantilevered staircase. In addition to good entertaining space, Atcombe Court has well-balanced family living space with a separate sitting room, a study and a well-equipped kitchen/breakfast room. The main house has seven/eight bedrooms and four bathrooms, spread over the first and second floors. A self-contained three bedroom wing is ideal for guests or family, or to generate letting income.

Atcombe Court is approached via a long driveway leading up past the ponds to the south east façade. To the rear of the house are various period outbuildings. These include extensive garaging and other outhouses. A pretty Grade II listed detached stone building, known as The School House, provides a large home office on the ground floor with a useful apartment on the first and second floors. The house sits within lovely mature gardens and grounds. The south west façade is covered with a large wisteria and beyond is a large lawn with mixed borders. The vegetable garden includes a 30’ productive asparagus border and two period greenhouses. To the north east is a well-maintained hard tennis court. To the rear of the house are two grass paddocks, edged by mature woodland and to the side of the driveway are two large ponds.

Woodchester is an attractive Cotswold village with a primary school, a pub (The Royal Oak) and a post office stores. It is also home to the well-regarded Woodchester Valley Vineyard. Nailsworth is about 2 miles away and offers a really excellent choice of shops and services, with more in Stroud which also has its famous Farmers' Market. Other local towns include Tetbury and Cirencester. Educational facilities within the area are excellent in both the private and public sector. The latter include a primary school in the village and a variety of grammar schools including Pates Grammar School in Cheltenham, Strou High and Marling School in Stroud and in the private sector there is Beaudesert Park at Minchinhampton and Wycliffe. Access to the M5 motorway is via junction 13 with Cheltenham, Gloucester, Swindon, Bath and Bristol all within daily commuting distance. Direct rail services to London Paddington from Stroud take about 88 minutes. Alternatively, the journey from Kemble (13 miles away) is about 72 minutes. There are many local sports facilities including various golf courses and many equestrian events such as racing at Cheltenham and Badminton Horse Trials.

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on May 30, 2023

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
