A magnificent Grade II Listed family home in the heart of the Cotswold village of Painswick with 5/6 bedrooms, period features and 130ft rear garden.
Description - Dating back to the 18th Century, Madison House offers a handsome period property in the heart of the village. An impressive reception hall sets the tone to this fabulous home which is both welcoming, whilst also well-adapted to contemporary living.
Once a restaurant, the home is steeped in historic interest with numerous period features, including original fireplaces, aged beams, sash and leaded mullion windows. The sitting room leads off the reception hall and the two rooms could easily be combined to create one large drawing room. A feature fireplace with wood burning stove inset, creates a warming focal point to the sitting room and a deep window seat
provides the perfect spot to relax and enjoy the view overlooking the courtyard garden. The kitchen is set to the rear of the house and is a fantastic room, which works equally well for hosting as it does for family suppers. A cream Aga and fitted shaker-style units provide plentiful storage and cooking/preparation spaces. A family room with flagstone floor, provides a second reception space, together with a rear reception hall. Steps lead up from the kitchen to a large utility/boot room, ideal for hiding laundry, muddy boots and country paraphernalia and with room for a second fridge/freezer. A superb full-height cellar serves as a wine-store and cloakroom, with WC. Both the kitchen and rear reception hall
open directly to the courtyard garden, offering a sheltered area with a wonderful Mediterranean vibe and the ideal location for alfresco entertaining.
Three spacious bedrooms are located on the first floor, together with a good-sized family bathroom. Sash windows give access from the front facing bedrooms, to the pretty views along New Street, with its many historic buildings. High ceilings throughout, create a wonderful sense of space. Leaded mullion windows add historic charm to the rear facing rooms. The principal bedroom benefits from an en-suite bathroom. Two further bedrooms and an office/bedroom 6, are located on the second floor, together
with a further bathroom. The garden is an absolute hidden gem. A large, sheltered courtyard garden provides the ideal space for entertaining family and friends and topiary adds style and interest. The remainder of the garden comprises sweeping lawns, stretching back circa130ft. Well-stocked borders combine to create an archetypal English country garden. A large shed provides useful storage.

Property information from this agent
About this agent
Painswick, arguably one of the prettiest villages in the Cotswolds, is situated between Cheltenham and Stroud. It contains an exceptional number of fine old buildings dating from the 17th and 18th centuries with a particularly special Grade 1 listed church as its centrepiece. From the village there are commanding views in every direction across a verdant landscape comprising unspoilt valleys, interspersed by a series of little country lanes. The village, which has good local amenities, is popular with all ages but particularly amongst the retired. Painswick is ideally located for Cheltenham and Gloucester and within two hours of London by road, being very accessible to the A417 which links the M4 (Junction 15 with Junction 11a of the M5 motorway). Cheltenham has a main line station (Birmingham New Street from 45 minutes) and this famous Regency Spa town is also famous for its racing, literature, music and science festivals as well as its excellent schools, shopping, restaurants and theatre. The Painswick Office serves the village and a large area from across to the River Severn, round the southern edge of Gloucester and Cheltenham to the villages to the north of Cirencester. It is consequently responsible for selling properties in some of the most sought after locations in the whole region while working closely with its sister offices at Stroud and at Minchinhampton and The Mayfair Office in central London.
