Set on a quiet North Cotswold lane, this spacious three-bedroom detached cottage blends period charm with practical family living. Ground-floor accommodation is arranged for easy entertaining — separate dining and sitting rooms, a dual-aspect kitchen/breakfast room with underfloor heating, and a utility, cloakroom and boot room for everyday comings and goings. French doors and a wood-burning stove bring warmth and light into the sitting room while a landscaped rear garden and patio extend the living space outdoors.
Upstairs are three double bedrooms, the principal with an en-suite and underfloor heating; the family bathroom also benefits from underfloor heating and a rainforest shower. A separate, well-equipped home office with hot/cold air conditioning and internet connectivity gives real flexibility for remote working or study. Driveway parking for several cars and side access to a decent plot suit family life and visitors.
Practical points to note: the property dates from before 1900 and has stone walls that appear uninsulated (assumed), and the current EPC rating is D. Council tax is above average, and local crime statistics are higher than average in the area. Broadband is fast and mobile signal average, and there is no reported flood risk. The house sits within Chipping Campden School catchment and offers an appealing village lifestyle close to Blockley and Moreton-in-Marsh rail links to London.
This home will suit families seeking character, space and countryside living who are prepared to accept period-property realities — including potential improvements to wall insulation and the ongoing upkeep that comes with older stone construction.
