Property description

THE PROPERTY The Fern House is a quietly situated three-storey Grade II Listed substantial Period town house tucked away at the end of The Ferns, a quiet cul-de-sac immediately off the town centre.



The extremely versatile accommodation consists briefly of reception entrance hall, family room/office, a double bedroom with en-suite bathroom which the owners currently use as a gymnasium and a utility room. Up the stairs from the entrance hall takes you into an amazing 33' long lounge/dining/kitchen - a fantastic family room for living in. From here an inner hall leads to the master bedroom with an adjacent luxury bathroom while a staircase then goes up again to two further double bedrooms, one of which has an en-suite shower room.



The property is served by gas fired radiator central heating with a modern combi boiler and is offered onto the market with no onward chain. We would certainly recommend an early appointment to view this distinctive home of character.

 

DIRECTIONS From our office in the centre of town proceed down Long Street and bear right into London Road, take the first right into The Ferns and the Fern House will be seen on the right just past the Doctors surgery at the far end of the cul-de-sac.

 

AMENITIES Tetbury, often referred to as the entrance to the Cotswolds, and once voted by Country Life magazine as the third most desirable town in the country, is a thriving historic Cotswold market town situated less than half an hour from both the M4 and M5 motorways and within easy reach of Cirencester, Cheltenham, Bath, Bristol and Swindon. There is good access to Kemble Railway Station with regular Intercity services to London and other regional commercial centres.



Tetbury is well known for its royal houses with HRH The Prince of Wales at Highgrove House, and Gatcombe Park the home of The Princess Royal both close by. Tetbury boasts an exciting range of shops including specialist boutiques, city standard delicatessens, the Highgrove Shop and many fine antique shops. The town has an excellent variety of hotels, restaurants, cafes and brasseries offering a mouth watering range of cuisine.



A visit to the Tourist Information Office will provide you with a map of the area showing some of our local attractions including the world famous Westonbirt Arboretum, or the nearby Cotswold Water Park or perhaps the Abbey and Abbey House Gardens in Malmesbury.
