Property description
The epitome of Cotswold charm: this stunning 6 bedroom detached period farmhouse encompasses everything you might hanker after from a home in the country. Whether it’s amazing panoramic views, character features, sunny gardens or a rolling 4 acre paddock for the horses you’ve always wanted...this property has the lot, all located on the edge of picturesque Painswick.
The property is believed to date from the late 16th /early 17th Century and this extensive period home is packed with original features throughout, including immaculate stone mullion windows, exposed original beams and huge inglenook fireplaces with wood burning stoves.
The house is approached by a smart sweeping drive, recently renewed with Cotswold stone chippings and there is plentiful parking on both sides of the property. The paddock has water supply, three gates and with easy access onto the main road it offers the opportunity to create the ideal equestrian home.
The ground floor is arranged around an impressive entrance hall with a superb inglenook fireplace and wood burning stove. There is a sizeable kitchen breakfast room complete with Aga and breathtaking views.
The sitting room again boasts a fantastic fireplace and yet more stone mullion windows; this leads to the separate study/snug that overlooks the garden.
To complete the ground floor there is a separate utility room with a useful downstairs shower and WC, pantry, boot room and a large double height store room ripe for conversion into a dining room.
On the first floor is a light and airy landing that accesses the spacious dual aspect master bedroom and walk in wardrobe. There are two further double bedrooms together with main family bathroom and another separate modern shower room.
Accessed via a spiral staircase is the 2nd floor with two substantial double bedrooms with beautiful exposed beams. Both bedrooms are served by a well appointed bathroom complete with free-standing claw foot bath.
Bedroom six with its impressive vaulted ceiling can either be accessed by a second staircase located at the far end of the property or a secret hatch from bedroom five.
Outside, the house boasts a glorious wisteria and is set in a large garden laid mainly to lawn with pretty borders and beautiful views of the valley and beyond.
The property can be found on the outskirts of the popular village of Painswick with a selection of local shops, cafes, restaurants, church and primary school. For more comprehensive shopping the market town of Stroud is easily accessible as well as Cheltenham and Gloucester. M5 access is approx. 4 miles away and with rail links from Stroud, you can find yourself in London in under 90 minutes.
