Description
This handsome Grade II Listed property, built in the mid 18th century boasts classic dressed and rubble honey coloured stone elevations under an impressive Cotswold stone tile hipped roof. Large sash windows form the front elevation, whilst three venetian windows span the southern elevation to take in the excellent views of the Avon valley. The property enjoys spacious and versatile accommodation arranged over 4 floors and is in excess of 3,300 sq ft.
A welcoming reception hall leads with a period tile floor to the principal ground floor reception rooms. The two large and square reception rooms enjoy feature fireplaces, wood panelling, high ceilings and tall sash windows. At the rear of the house is a superb open plan kitchen/dining/family room, excellent for entertaining and opening into the garden through glazed double doors. There is a utility room and W.C on this floor with a door leading down to the spacious cellar.
The property enjoys three upper floors which are arranged as five bedrooms and four bath/shower rooms with the option of a sixth bedroom as required. One of the bedrooms on the first floor has a large walk-in wardrobe as well as opening into a large conservatory that leads into a section of the garden at the rear of the property.
There is a wealth of character on offer in this delightful period home to include feature fireplaces, exposed wooden floors and beams, ornate shutters, sash windows, exposed stone walls and wooden panelled doors. The tall sash windows affords an abundance of natural light and the open views to the front and side improve the further up you go in the property.
Grounds
A private walled drive leads to a large garage and store area with parking for numerous cars in front. The gardens are arranged around the house, a lawn with a pond and shrub borders to the front, again with the views, whilst a large paved patio leads around the side, creating a Mediterranean feel with climbing plants perfect for al fresco dining. Steps lead up to a vegetable garden and terrace. There is a further lawn to the rear, next to a former indoor swimming pool, in need of updating and up until more recently had planning permission and listed buildings consent to convert into annexe accommodation.
Directions
The property is located towards the end of The Batch which is a no-through road just off the High Street.
