Location

Stow-on-the-Wold is a charming market town which enjoys an elevated situation within the Cotswold Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The town is a renowned centre for speciality shops and in particular fine art and antiques.

Stow-on-the-Wold is strategically located just off the north south Fosse Way and near to the A40/M40 to London and the A44 Oxford to Worcester east/west trunk road. The area is well served by excellent hotels and restaurants both in Stow-on-the-Wold and the surrounding villages.

The important centres of Oxford and Cheltenham are very accessible and there are a number of first class educational establishments in both these centres. Stratford-upon-Avon, with the resident Royal Shakespeare Company, lies about 18 miles to the north.

There are mainline railway stations at Moreton-in-Marsh and Kingham which serve London Paddington, Oxford, Worcester and Hereford.

Sporting and recreational facilities are well catered for in the area with golf courses at Lyneham, Chipping Norton and Naunton Downs. National Hunt Racing is at Cheltenham, Stratford-upon-Avon, Warwick and Worcester.

The surrounding countryside is particularly beautiful with traditional Cotswold villages, rural walks, interesting churches and important gardens at Hidcote and Kiftsgate.

Description

Spinners Cottage is believed to date from the 18th century and is constructed of local Cotswold stone. The recently fully renovated property combines traditional features, including timber beams and exposed stone walls, with all the comforts of modern living. Spinners Cottage is approached via a timber gate and paved and gravelled path which leads to the front door and beyond to the two adjoining cottages.

The front door opens into a hall which leads on to the sitting room with wooden floor, oak beams, a window seat and fireplace housing a wood burning stove. The kitchen/breakfast room is beautifully appointed and there is ample room for a table and chairs.

Stairs rise from the kitchen/ breakfast room to the bedroom accommodation comprising a principal bedroom with window seat, exposed stone wall and beams and en suite shower room. Bedroom two is equally characterful and there is a family shower room.

There is off street parking for one car in a shared car park next to the cottage. Free on street parking is available on Back Walls.

The property will appeal to those buyers looking for a permanent home, a turn-key weekend retreat or investors seeking a charming holiday let (the property is currently run as extremely successful holiday cottage accommodation).
