The Property
Discreetly positioned within the idyllic village of Ruscombe, this enchanting Grade II listed period terrace enjoys a beautifully elevated setting and has been renovated to an exceptional standard throughout. Arranged over three storeys, the house offers a fusion of historic character and refined contemporary living. The interior is rich in authentic detail, with exposed Cotswold stone walls, original timber beams, stained glass windows and an open fireplace combining to create a home of warmth, elegance and enduring appeal. A traditional stable door opens into a welcoming entrance hall, where tumbled limestone flooring flows effortlessly through the utility room, cloakroom and into the kitchen. The kitchen/breakfast room is a striking, light filled, double aspect space, beautifully appointed with an elegant in-frame Shaker style kitchen, polished quartz work surfaces and a Belfast ceramic sink. A breakfast bar provides informal seating, while integrated appliances include a dishwasher, with space for a range style cooker. The fridge/freezer is discreetly positioned across the hall, enhancing the kitchen’s sense of symmetry. Adjoining the kitchen, the dining room offers an intimate space for entertaining and flows seamlessly into the sitting room, both finished with striking herringbone engineered oak flooring. The sitting room is particularly atmospheric, featuring sandblasted stone walls, exposed beams and a HETAS registered multi-fuel stove set within an open fireplace. Bespoke cabinetry beneath the stairs provides practical yet elegant storage, while a door leads directly to the front of the property. The first floor is home to a beautifully re-fitted family bathroom and a generous principal bedroom suite, complete with en-suite shower room and enjoying views over the garden. The top floor is devoted to a second double bedroom, enhanced by two substantial built-in cupboards offering excellent shelving and hanging space. The property has gas central heating
Outside
The property’s gardens are a true delight, offering a series of beautifully curated spaces in which to relax, entertain, or simply soak in the serene surroundings. A shared pathway leads to the main lawn, where a raised patio provides a peaceful vantage point with enchanting glimpses across the picturesque valley. Elsewhere, a charming seating area, laid with Cotswold stone gravel and subtly illuminated for evening ambiance, invites quiet reflection, while a discreet area serves as a practical wood store. A further paved courtyard offers a private, low maintenance space ideal for alfresco dining or entertaining, seamlessly accessible from the kitchen. Complementing these gardens is a versatile stone outbuilding, thoughtfully upgraded by the owners to create a flexible studio, home office, or storage space, with additional room above to suit a range of lifestyle needs. Each corner of the garden has been designed to blend beauty and functionality, creating an outdoor sanctuary that perfectly complements the elegance and character of the home. Ofcom reports that the property enjoys access to ultrafast broadband speeds alongside good mobile phone coverage.
