House For Sale £875,000
Holly Cottage has stunning views south easterly across farmland with
views up towards the Cotswold escarpment. Shadwell and Uley are well
known to be in an area of outstanding beauty which enjoys peace and
tranquillity. The property dates back to the early 18th century when it is
believed to have been the Old Dairy. The current owners have extensively
renovated and extended the property to a high standard, creating and
enhancing character features, including fireplaces, latched doors and a
mixture of wooden and flag-stone flooring.
The property is an exceptional family home in an enviable rural position
with spacious accommodation arranged over two floors. To the front are
two living rooms with wood burners and a central hall with a staircase. To
the rear of the property, there is a fantastic kitchen/breakfast room
designed by Johnathan Randal of Uley. This is built into a light atrium-style
conservatory with underfloor heating and doors which lead into the
patio and garden. A handy utility room with a downstairs WC and stable-style
back door sits off the conservatory. Upstairs there are four
bedrooms and two bathrooms. The principal bedroom takes the prime
position with en suite shower room, walk-through wardrobe and stunning
views from the front of the house. There are three double bedrooms, two
very generous and one smaller, all serviced by the family bathroom.
To the front, the garden is landscaped with lawn, shrub borders and
specimen trees; a driveway leads to a detached garage with electric
roller doors. A private, peaceful garden bordered by mature shrubs and
trees is at the property's rear. The gazebo and summer house is perfect
for outside entertaining and extra accommodation.
