Tucked away up a private drive, in an elevated setting, possessing breath taking panoramic views across the Golden and Toadsmoor valleys, sits this outstanding family home. Adjoining farmland on two sides, this much adored property has been transformed over the years from a modest Cotswold cottage to a show stopping country residence.

Formal entry to the home is via the vaulted front porch which leads directly into the entrance hall. This sizable area with its travertine floor, exposed Cotswold stone wall and wood burning stove, gives access to both reception rooms, a secret under the stairs entrance to the cellar and the staircase leading to the first floor. Down a couple of steps, the dual aspect sitting room will be located. This enjoys oak flooring, French doors out onto a front patio and a contemporary wood burner tucked in a corner position. Currently this space doubles up as a home office. The impressive drawing room is well proportioned and flooded by natural light. It too boasts a travertine floor with a splendid central, floor to ceiling, Cotswold fireplace with a wood burning stove being the main focal point of the room. Bespoke built in shelves and cupboards sit either side of the door leading into the inner lobby. A further door takes you to the rear porch, where the cloakroom and stairs to the main bedroom suite are found. The inner lobby has an attractive lantern roof and a door to the utility room. From here the magnificent 35’6” oak framed kitchen/dining/family room is situated. This dreamy, vaulted room is simply phenomenal and acts as the hub of the home with a comprehensively fitted ‘shaker-style’ kitchen including a substantial island at one end and at the other three walls of bi-fold doors allowing the terrace to become part of living space on warm days.

The marvellous valley views can be celebrated from here. A rustic limestone floor runs through this room and into the inner lobby and utility. Our vendors use the kitchen door as their everyday entry point.  On the first floor, the main bedroom suite is found. This comprises of a vaulted double room with feature fireplace, dual aspect windows framing the far-reaching views and a doorway leading into the dressing room which is abundantly fitted out with wardrobes and cupboards. The luxuriously vaulted ensuite bathroom is superb; it offers a freestanding bath specially placed in front of the window making most of the view in addition to a walk-in shower. Also on this level are two further bedrooms, and a family bathroom, all-embracing an open aspect. A further staircase leads up to the top floor, home to two further bedrooms and a shower room.
