Property description

Detached and well designed individual home in a magical setting. With the added bonus of a proposed building plot for one dwelling. Plans have been submitted to Tewkesbury Borough Council on 26th April 2016 for outline permission for one dwelling. This process is likely to take 8 weeks from the above date.Elevated from the village itself and around 1 mile from the river, this house is secluded from the road into the village by its own wooded private commonland. A driveway runs down to the house where there is garaging for up to seven cars and gravelled parking for at least another seven.With an emphasis on natural light and beautiful garden views, there are spacious interconnecting rooms which open up for entertaining or close off as the mood or season dictates. The accommodation is highly adaptable providing great family space - equally the house is capable of providing independent living to one end of the building where there is a guest suite and separate entrance. Including this downstairs space there are 5 bedrooms with a master suite which has two dressing areas (possible 6th bedroom), an en-suite with 4 person sauna and a lovely roof terrace/balcony which overlooks the beautiful and abundant gardens and open farmland beyond.A major feature of this property are the wonderful landscaped gardens which stretch to around 1.80 acres. To one end, on the tennis court area is where the proposed bulidng plot would be sited. Originally designed and planted by an arboraculturist, many rare and spectacular trees, shrubs and plants are found along the paths which wend round this very special garden. There is an all weather tennis court to the far end and a beautiful lily pond with a water feature and outside dining area to the other end. The whole garden borders open farmland to one side and woodland to the front. The open woodland stretches to just over 4 acres, owned by the property, and forms part of Brockeridge Common.This is a house and garden which truly has to be seen to be appreciated, and along with the proposed building plot, offers an unique opportunity.

- (around 6 acres in total. Formal gardens of approx 1.80 acres

Professionally designed and planted by a renowned arboriculturalist for his own use, this is a truly outstanding garden which features unusual trees and plants at every turn. Sweeping lawns and paths lead through established shrubbery and trees with an all weather tennis court in the furthest corner of the garden and a beautiful lily pond complete with a water feature and al fresco dining area to the other end. Directly outside the house is full width York stone paving with a pergola at one side over a barbecue area with established climbers over. There are also productive vegetable and soft fruit areas as well as a secluded rose garden, greenhouse and various sheds and outbuildings. Outside the formal garden boundary lies the wooded area of private commonland which also belongs to the property. This area is a wildlife haven and provides an excellent screen from the road down to Twyning village, so much so that you have to drive past very slowly to see the turning.
