2 bedroom apartment for sale

A spacious 2-bedroom apartment, part of Filkins Hall and set in beautiful gardens and grounds.

Flat 10 is a spacious apartment within this impressive Cotswold stone property. The original Georgian building was destroyed by a fire in 1876 and rebuilt in the Jacobean style in 1912. It has many character features including high ceilings, stone mullioned windows and stone fireplaces. The hall was converted into ten apartments during the 1980s and has been cared for and much improved by the residents since the early 2000s. The main entrance hallway features an impressive oak staircase which leads to the first and second floors. This spacious apartment is set on the second floor with far-reaching countryside views.

The Hall sits in approximately three acres of its own land, with its own private gravel driveway and ample parking. The immaculate communal gardens are mainly laid to lawn with some impressive borders; there is an orchard and various walkways linking the estate together. The tennis court is a lovely addition to the grounds.
