The Lanterns
Guide price £800,000
The Property
Occupying an elevated position and enjoying delightful countryside views, The Lanterns is an individually designed detached home set within a generous plot of approximately 0.4 acres. Built in the 1970s and never before offered for sale, this much-loved property now presents an exciting opportunity for the next owners to undertake a full renovation and create a bespoke home to their own specification. The ground floor includes a porch, entrance hall, bedroom with side access, home office, cloakroom, and a workshop/store housing the boiler, together with a cellar (with restricted head height). An impactful hall with a vaulted ceiling and open-tread staircase—a striking feature of its 1970s design—rises to the first floor. A sliding glass door opens onto the landing. To the left-hand side, the living accommodation comprises a sitting room leading into the dining room, with access to the kitchen/breakfast room. Both the sitting room and kitchen open into a 31ft conservatory on two levels. To the right-hand side, the main bedroom enjoys a walk-in dressing room/nursery, together with a shower cubicle, a WC and basin. French doors open directly onto the rear patio. There is a further bedroom, family bathroom, and ample built-in storage. Once a unique and stylish home, now offers excellent scope for modernisation and potential reconfiguration to suit the next owners’ vision and lifestyle.

Outside
Set on a generous plot of approximately 0.4 acres, the property offers extensive grounds. The sloping terrain is a particular highlight, providing delightful vistas from the rear. At the front, an open driveway sweeps in front of the house, offering plenty of parking and access to a single garage, alongside a front lawn. To the side, on a much higher level, lies a disused swimming pool with an adjoining patio. Further sloping lawns stretch behind the house, enjoying the most joyful countryside views. Like the house, the grounds are in need of redesign, presenting a blank canvas for the next owner with a flair for gardening. Due to Health and Safety concerns, you can not inspect the interior of the garage or the swimming pool and the terrace that surrounds it.

Situation
Chedworth is a beautiful and historic Cotswold village lying between Cirencester and Northleach, just off the Fosse Way. The village is made up of three distinct areas – Lower, Middle, and Upper Chedworth. Nearby lies the famous Chedworth Roman Villa, one of the finest examples in Britain, offering a fascinating glimpse into the area’s ancient past. Surrounded by rolling Cotswold hills, the village enjoys a wealth of countryside walks, including the Chedworth Nature Reserve, which provides a haven for local wildlife. Chedworth has a strong sense of community centred around St Andrew’s C of E Primary School and a well-used village hall. For dining, The Inn at Fossebridge and The Stump public house are the closest and both popular with locals and visitors alike.
