A uniquely characterful Grade II listed former alms house in a highly popular village, with character features and an enclosed garden.
Description
Edwards College was built in 1837 as a row of 12 alms houses, originally founded by Anne Edwards for widows of the clergy. Now Grade II listed and notable for their Tudor Gothic style, each of the houses is now privately owned and modernised for the 21st century, while retaining a great deal of their original character. Number 4 is situated within the terrace and is attractively appointed, with character features including picture rails, a open fireplaces, stone mullioned windows and wooden doors. The kitchen to the rear has a vaulted ceiling with exposed beams, as does the top-floor bedroom, while a number of stone details remain. The windows have been upgraded with bespoke secondary glazing and frame beautiful views over the surrounding meadows to the south.
The interior is deceptively spacious and comprises two good-size reception rooms, a cloakroom, an open plan kitchen/dining room and a utility cupboard to the rear. There are two double bedrooms on the first floor alongside a bathroom, and the principal bedroom is on the second floor with an en suite bathroom.
Outside
Edwards College benefits from private allocated parking for each property. To the rear, an enclosed courtyard-style garden provides a low-maintenance outdoor space for enjoying warmer days; it is laid to paving with mature shrub borders. To the front there is a covered loggia with further space for seating, overlooking the meadows to the south.
Location
South Cerney is a delightful Cotswolds village situated five miles south of Cirencester, with pubs, a Co-op convenience store, village hall, dental clinic and a primary school.

The village is also situated in the Cotswold Lakes providing a number of leisure opportunities.
Communications are first class with a direct service from Kemble (about four miles) to London Paddington taking approximately 80 minutes. Both the M4 and M5 are easily accessible via the A417/419 dual carriageways.
The local area has a wide selection of highly regarded schools in both the public and private sectors and the property is within the catchment for both Kingshill and Deer Park Schools in Cirencester. Private schools include Hatherop Castle, Rendcomb College, Prior Park in Cricklade as well as the schools and colleges in Cheltenham.
