House For Sale £595,000
A charming Cotswold stone townhouse in the heart of Tetbury.
Description
Just moments from the centre of thriving and vibrant Tetbury is this characterful and very lovely townhouse, arranged over two floors with a useful cellar and the benefit of off-street parking. As well as being very central and offering great access to the town’s plentiful and very walkable amenities, the house has lovely views to the front over the handsome St Mary the Virgin parish church and to the rear towards Black Horse Hill, the Cutwell Valley and the river meadows that border the Tetbury Avon.
The cottage is built from Cotswold stone and is believed to date back to the 18th century. The layout is deceptively spacious, going back some way behind the front elevations and offering more than 2100 sq ft of space. Internally it is beautifully presented in heritage colours and has a number of character features, including exposed timber beams, sash windows and original fireplaces. On the ground floor there is a good-size dining room and snug/office, a separate sitting room, a shower room and a kitchen with AGA and walk-in pantry. There is also access to the cellar. On the first floor there is a principal bedroom with dressing room/study, a second double bedroom and a family bathroom, with a third good-size double on the second floor.
55 Church Street benefits from an off-street parking space, which is rare for the centre of town. To the rear of the house there is an attractive and mature south west-facing garden stocked with a variety of shrubs. There is a paved terrace for garden furniture and lovely views over the countryside beyond.
Location
Tetbury is a popular and lively traditional Cotswold market town, well known for its 17th and 18th century architecture. Historically, the town was known for its wool market and more recently antique shops but today boutique and specialist shops, together with cafes, an award-winning bakery, restaurants and bistros have come to the fore. There is superstore shopping on the edge of town and a wider choice of supermarkets, shops and leisure facilities in nearby Cirencester (12 miles).
There are direct rail services to London Paddington from Kemble and Swindon stations, the latter scheduled to take approximately 55 minutes. There is good access to the M4 and M5 towards Bristol and the A419/A417 on the other side of Cirencester. The main regional centres include Cheltenham, Bristol and Swindon, all of which are within daily commuting distance.
There is a good choice of private and state schools in the area including Westonbirt, Rendcomb College, Beaudesert Park and the Cheltenham Colleges.
Nearby is the world-famous National Arboretum at Westonbirt which covers 600 acres and boasts one of the most varied specimen collections in Europe as well as some 17 miles of trails. Other recreational opportunities include golf at Westonbirt and Minchinhampton, sailing at the Cotswold Water Park, motor racing at the Castle Combe circuit and racing at Cheltenham.
Square Footage: 2,234 sq ft
Directions
From Cirencester, take the A429 west and proceed on the Tetbury Road for approximately 12 miles. At the roundabout in Tetbury town centre, take the third exit onto Church St. The property will be on the right-hand side after approximately 0.2 miles, just after the turning to West St.
