House For Rent £3,000
This is a superb and rare example of an 18th century cottage fused with modern 21st century architecture to create an outstanding Cotswold home offering a multitude of combinations for country village living.
The original cottage forms the end section of a terrace of cottages dating back to the 18th century and their listed status protects the important character and history of this highly sought after Cotswold village. The former owner was a notable architect with the vision to create a spectacular detached one bedroom studio with vast lines of modern glazing blending seamlessly with the period features it attaches to. This is all accentuated by a secluded rear garden and valuable driveway parking space.
From the pavement, you will step through the charming cottage front door to the entrance hall where you will find the characterful dining room on your right and the living room on your left. Full of period features, nooks and crannies and a a vast inglenook fireplace (please note, the woodburner has been decommissioned).
A couple of steps up takes you to the kitchen at the rear of the cottage where there is a range of fitted units adorned with a beautiful marble worktop surrounding the butler's sink and range cooker. Off to the side is a utility room and a downstairs cloakroom with WC. At the opposite end is the rear entrance porch with an opening to the dining room and a rear door giving access to the garden, driveway and studio.
Upstairs are two bedrooms and a bathroom tucked into the cottage roof space all oozing with charm and exposed timbers. The dual aspect master bedroom has a king size bed whilst the second has bunk beds cleverly bespoke fitted to make the most of the space. There is ample storage upstairs with built in shelving and wardrobes in the master bedroom, landing and bathroom.
Heading outside to the detached studio building there is a double bedroom, shower room and an incredible open plan kitchen/dining/living space flanked by a full feature glass wall. This space is a pure delight and offers a range of uses from the obvious additional accommodation or a bright home working space for those in need of it. The studio has it's own gas central heating boiler.
The landlord is flexible to offering both longer or shorter term fully/partially furnished letting options including possibility of having all bills included for those looking for a temporary stop gap.
