An exciting opportunity to convert an agricultural building in the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, four miles from Cirencester.
Description
Scrubditch Farm Barn offers the rare opportunity to convert a former agricultural building to a striking and beautifully appointed family home. The property is situated within a mature and well-established plot surrounded by the breath-taking countryside of the Cotswolds AONB. Full planning permission has been approved for the conversion of the barn, to a substantial house designed for the modern day, while respecting the rural setting and the earlier uses of the building ref: 24/00315/FUL.
CGI renderings and plans, by acclaimed local architect, Blake Architects of Winstone, show a simple structure with a large open plan living space, with the bedrooms raised on elevated level for privacy and far-reaching views. The drawings are shown with robust materials reminiscent of farm buildings, including rammed earth, sawn timber and a salvaged metal roof, while the interior design is one of clean lines and sharp contours – a thoroughly modern display of rural elegance. This is a truly fantastic chance to create your own home in a rarely found setting at the heart of the Cotswolds.
Outside
Scrubditch Farm Barn is situated on a farm with access via a shared driveway, used by just a handful of homes. The plot is bordered by agricultural fields to the north and west with a number of belts of mature native trees. The gardens are proposed to be sown with wildflower meadow mix and are situated to the north and east of the house, with an orchard to the north.
Location
Scrubditch Farm Barn enjoys a rural setting amongst rolling countryside, less than a mile from the village of North Cerney. North Cerney is a popular village which supports a church, a good primary school and an excellent pub - The Bathurst Arms. Cerney House Gardens is a beautiful private visitor attraction, which is also nearby.
More extensive shopping, leisure and educational facilities can be found in Cheltenham and Oxford, including Cheltenham College and Cheltenham Ladies, Wycliffe and Rencomb, the latter about two miles north. There are further good schooling options locally in both the state and private sector, including Deer Park and Kingshill secondary schools in Cirencester and Hatherop Castle, Beaudesert and Westonbirt.
A good range of sporting opportunities in the area include various golf courses, racing at Cheltenham, sailing and water sports within the Cotswold Lakes, polo at Westonbirt and Cirencester Park and a number of high-profile equestrian events including Badminton Horse Trials.
Communications are first class with a direct service from Kemble (approximately 8.5 miles) to London Paddington taking approximately 75 minutes. Both the M4 and M5 are easily accessible via the A417/A419 dual carriageways.
All mileages are approximate.
Square Footage: 4,973 sq ft
Directions
From Cirencester, proceed north through Stratton and join the A435 heading north east towards Cheltenham. After 1.8 miles bear left onto Cutham Lane and after 1.4 miles turn right towards Scrubditch Farm. The barn will be seen on the left-hand side.
Additional Info
