Description:
Little Orchard is a fabulous Cotswold home in the heart of the village. Beautifully renovated, the house is both welcoming and superbly laid out with generous living spaces and quiet cosy corners.
The ground floor has been renovated with love and attention to detail. The owners have been mindful to create inviting living spaces which adapt perfectly to contemporary living.
The kitchen is clearly the heart of the house and a wonderful room in which to entertain family and friends. It is equipped with all the necessary modern appliances and there is plenty of worktop and discreet storage space. Bi-folding doors provide a smooth transition from indoor to outdoor living with the terrace coming into its own during the summer months for al fresco dining and sundowners. The adjacent utility room is generously proportioned and keeps all the washing out of sight! Garden access comes in handy for muddy wellies after a long country walk.
The sitting room with sliding doors to the garden is ideal for unwinding in front of a good movie or with a good book. The fireplace adds extra warmth in the colder months.
There is a guest bedroom with en suite bathroom on the ground floor.
Upstairs comprises the master bedroom with a dressing area and en suite bathroom. There are two further bedrooms and a family bathroom. All the rooms have been thoughtfully laid out to provide comfort and plenty of storage.
Outside the terrace overlooks the garden and is ideal for summer BBQs and entertaining. The garden is predominantly laid to lawn, framed with pretty herbaceous borders and hedging.
Above the garage is the studio which is ideal as a home office and makes working from home a superb option. The velux windows allow for an abundance of natural light.
There is private parking on the gated driveway alongside the garage.
Vendors' thoughts: "Little Orchard has been a great home and we have thoroughly enjoyed our time here. We saw potential in it the first time we saw it and were fortunate enough to be able to redesign it in a way that has worked extremely well for us. By adding more windows and changing internal layouts we think have created light filled rooms that catch both morning and afternoon sun. We’ve enjoyed some great weekends here with friends and family with plenty of room to entertain both inside and out. The location has been perfect in terms of both work commute and for journeys to London and beyond. The village has a great community of residents including a local WhatsApp group that keeps everyone informed of what’s happening on a day to day basis. Bell Lane is particularly friendly and has its own organised street party gaining permission to close the road off on an annual basis."
In a nutshell: A superb village house with great living spaces!
Council Tax Band G and EPC rating C.
Tenure: Freehold.
Services: Mains water, electricity and drainage. Oil-fired central heating.
