6 bedroom detached house for sale

The Property:
Bulk Farm is an exceptional stone-built Grade II listed property, being sold by the Ozleworth Estate. Situated in one of the most beautiful and unspoilt southern pockets of the Cotswolds with views down to the lake, it is believed to have origins from the 18th century with later 19th century additions, at a time thought to be a school. Bulk Farm was extended again around 15 years ago and is a true hidden gem, which enjoys breathtaking open countryside views and complete rural tranquillity.
The house offers wonderfully proportioned and practical living space, rarely found in period homes. Arranged over three floors, the accommodation includes six bedrooms and three bathrooms, with surprisingly high ceilings and a wealth of original character features.
The ground floor features three elegant reception rooms, a study, a spacious farmhouse kitchen, utility/boot room, and a family area that flows on to the beautifully landscaped gardens.
The first floor has four bedrooms with a good-sized principal suite; one has the potential to be adapted to be a dressing room for the principal bedroom. On the second floor are two good-sized attic bedrooms.
This is a property that combines timeless charm with a layout that supports modern, practical life.

Gardens and Grounds:
Accessed via a quiet lane off Blacksmith Hill, the property is approached by a private drive passing a detached garage, with ample parking available. A pretty lawned garden sits at the front of the house, while a large, secluded stone terrace lies to the rear, perfect for outdoor entertaining and enjoying the surrounding landscape.
The gardens are enclosed mainly by a high stone wall, with mature trees and well-established borders enhancing the feeling of privacy. Every aspect of the garden benefits from the stunning rural views that define this truly idyllic location.
The property also includes an attractive stone stable block, which, subject to the necessary consents, offers potential for conversion into additional accommodation. A separate detached garage block provides further flexibility and storage.

Services:
Oil-fired heating, private drainage, borehole and mains electricity.
