Description

Formally two cottages married together, believed to have been built c. 18th century, this substantial Grade II listed cottage now offers tremendous space, charm and elegance, set in a picturesque plot in the highly sought after village of Great Cheverell.

Arranged over two floors and totaling over 2650 sqft, entering through the front door, you are welcomed with a wealth of character and charm, feature beams and flagstone flooring. Downstairs, the property consists of a rear entrance hall leading off to a dual aspect study/ bedroom 5, with adjoining downstairs shower room. The kitchen/breakfast room features a range of shelving units and cupboards, with ample worktop space, and leads to a formal dining room with inglenook fireplace and the original red brick bread oven as a feature. There are also two sizeable sitting rooms separated by a further beautiful inglenook fireplace, with the second leading to a bright and airy conservatory, with French doors out to one of several patios.

The first floor is accessed via 2 staircases and boasts 4 double bedrooms, two family bathrooms and ample storage space. The dual aspect principal bedroom bursts with light and character, with exposed beams and views over the pristine garden.

Externally, the property delights with its west facing rural aspect and unusual amount of birdsong.Gravelled paths lead to various garden areas and secret places. There are two flagstone terraces, which get the sun at different times of day, both perfect for alfresco dining. And in a wild area, landscaped with stone and boulders, a picturesque waterfall runs down to a lily pond with another paved seating area beneath the trees, which provides lovely cool on very hot days. There is a new summer house built by Malvern Garden Buildings and a new greenhouse built by Rhino- both with a power supply. There is also a further greenhouse, and a newly roofed garden shed. The private and peaceful garden has mature planting, trees, shrubs and vegetable patch. There is off road parking for several vehicles and subject to the relevant planning consents, the ability to install a garage/carport and extend the driveway.
