House For Sale £710,000
Corner House sits nestled into the unspoilt Cotswold village of Leighterton and has been a much-loved family home to its current owners for the past 17 years. During their ownership it has been very sympathetically improved and extended to now provide beautifully presented accommodation across its two floors, as well as a sociable landscaped garden that provides further entertaining space during the warmer months.
Following its rear extension, the natural everyday entrance to the house follows around from the driveway and into the rear of the property. Here there is an entrance lobby with stairs to the first floor, with a useful cupboard underneath, and an attractive flagstone floor that flows through into the kitchen. The kitchen/dining room is a dual aspect room allowing plenty of space for a dining table whilst the kitchen itself is fitted with a range of base units under a solid wooden worktop, and there is an integrated electric hob and oven along with space for a freestanding fridge freezer. The sitting room is situated beside the kitchen and has a beautiful focal stone fireplace with a log burner inset, plus wooden flooring and a dual aspect. The original front door is also found in the sitting room should it be desired to be used. To complete the ground floor there is a family bathroom with a white suite, and an adjacent utility room that provides some fantastic storage as well as space and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer.
Continuing up to the first floor there is a central landing that provides doors to all the bedrooms. There are three doubles and a single, which is currently used as a study. The master bedroom is at the rear of the property and benefits from fitted wardrobes and a pleasant rural outlook across the neighbouring farmland.
Externally, there is a rear garden which is surrounded by Cotswold dry stone wall. It is mainly laid to lawn with raised borders, plus a useful stone shed with power and behind this is a log store and the oil tank. A great addition to the garden is the stone built, wood fired hot tub. Beside the property is a driveway that provides parking for two vehicles.
We believe the property to be connected to mains water, electricity, and drainage. Oil fired central heating. Council Tax band E (Cotswold District Council).
EPC – Exempt.
