House For Sale £1,150,000
A deceptively spacious family house together with a
separate annexe set in a very desirable village.
Description
Understood to date back from the early 18th century, Mill Brook Cottage is a charming period house which retains many period features including exposed stonework and ceiling beams. The external appearance belies the amount of accommodation offered which is surprisingly spacious and ideal for family living. Complementing the house is a pretty cottage style garden.
Internally the house provides two reception rooms to the front, a heavily beamed sitting room and a larger drawing room which opens out into the good sized kitchen. Indeed the kitchen extends the full width of the house and creates a real hub for family living. Off the side hall is the cloakroom and utility room. Five bedrooms are provided on the first floor with the main bedroom having two built in wardrobes and its own shower room. There is also the family bathroom and three of the bedrooms have fitted wardrobes. There are intranet cables connected.
Externally the property is approached through double gates with gravelled parking for a number of vehicles. The detached garage has been converted to provide for self contained accommodation and comprises a sitting room with kitchenette, shower room and a first floor bedroom with Velux roof lights. The remainder is made over to a single garage which also houses the oil fired boiler.
The established garden is found to the front of the house. The south west orientation makes it particularly sunny and therefore ideal for outside entertaining. Mature and private, the garden is divided into two with lawn and shrub borders close to the front of the house. A picket gate leads through to the second half which is also lawned and having a raised border and a timber garden shed. There is a vehicle charging point on the garage and external power points in the gardens.
In summary Mill Brook Cottage is a delightful family home set in a favoured part of this North Wiltshire village. The inclusion of a separate annexe makes the property particularly appealing for home workers or for those who want additional accommodation for family needs.
Location
Mill Brook Cottage is situated in a prime location in the village within walking distance of all the amenities that make the village so popular – thriving primary school, post office, community run shop, parish church, a public house and garage. There are an inordinate number of societies in the village,
;an excellent example of a thriving community. The village is self-sufficient in many ways but Cirencester and Swindon, the two major towns in the area, are both within easy motoring distance and provide comprehensive but differing shopping, commercial and recreational amenities.
The village is also situated in the Cotswold Water Park providing water sports, walking, cycling, riding and golf opportunities. The Thames Path passes through the village. There are also leisure centres in Cirencester and Cricklade.
Access to London is particularly easy via the M4 (J15/A419 ORJ6/B4696) or by train from Kemble, or from Swindon where trains reach Paddington in approximately 55 minutes.
Preparatory and public schools in the area are numerous with Hatherop Castle, Rendcomb College, Prior Park in Cricklade and Pinewood at Bourton all being close by. In addition there are the schools and colleges in Cheltenham, Ashton Keynes Primary School is a highly regarded school, ranking within the top 1.5% of Primary Schools nationally and featuring in the Sunday Times Top 250 Best Schools lists for the last two years of publishing.
Square Footage: 2,257 sq ft
Directions
