Property Information
Situated on the edge of a very welcoming and friendly village, The Old School House has the luxury of being embedded in the Cotswold countryside with vast views of rolling hills and fields of green, as well as being within a 15-20 minute radius of a handful of glorious neighbouring towns and villages.
The Old School house is a 4-bedroom property that comes with a self contained 1-bedroom annex (with separate entrance directly accessible from the street) as well as internal access from the homes utility room. This 1-bedroom annex is absolutely full of potential which you can use according to whatever fits your lifestyle, for example it could be a guest bedroom, staff quarters, an office/study, a gym or even storage! It was previously used as a gallery, which just demonstrates the creativity that having this holds.
The exterior of the property is very classic and grand, with stone bricks, large windows and a pillared arch entrance complimented by the lush green foliage that climbs up the front of the house that adds vibrancy to its welcoming feel. The Old School House enjoys direct views over a paddock, which contain horses peacefully grazing on the grass. As you enter, the house opens up to a lovely, welcoming entrance space with large wooden-framed windows that absorb the natural light and create a bright and airy reception space. Down the hallway you will find the living room in a similar style, including the wooden floors, high ceilings, wooden shutters and open fire place and painted a gorgeous teal colour which truly brings the space alive! Having these two reception rooms gives you flexibility throughout. In the hallway corridor, you'll come across the set of stairs that wrap around upwards to the first floor, which carry rustic features as well as a unique chandelier which hangs from the top. Just past the stairs on the ground floor, you will find a WC. Opposite the sitting room, there is a door that leads into the kitchen.
The kitchen has had the luxury of a recent refurbishment, with a delightful stretch of cupboards, cabinets and storage in a light grey/blue colour which contributes to the property's light and airy feel. There is also room for a breakfast nook, which is ideal for sipping on your tea in the early morning, reading the paper or making a hearty breakfast. The kitchen is quite often the centre of a property and The Old School House reflects this in every way. The kitchen flows inside to outside, which is an absolute sun trap! It is the perfect space to create a cosy snug, sun lounge or an office. The sliding doors open up to a contained courtyard, which would be wonderful for outdoor dining in the summer with a BBQ. At the far end of this flexible space, there is a stone wall with a door which leads into a practical utility room. From here is the entrance to the annex which can either be a part of the home, or entirely separated. On the first floor, you will be greeted with two double bedrooms, one ensuite as well as a family bathroom. The bedrooms are both of generous size for comfortable living, as well as bathrooms which have been refurbished to an incredibly high standard with sleek interior and modern appliances. Up another set of stairs, you will find a further two smaller bedrooms under the eaves, along with a shared bathroom.
Outside to the front, the enclosed garden is found just across the drive from the front door, enclosed by a classic Cotswold stone wall, a fence and a gate. The canopy of trees and foliage with surround & shelter the garden, offer a secured sense of privacy. With sunlight beaming through the branches and onto the lawn, it is a peaceful outdoor space to be enjoyed by all whether you're reading a booking, gardening or playing games.
The Old School House is equally suitable to couples, entertainers, family units or really anyone seeking more flexibility than the "usual" four bedroom house. It has been completed to an immaculate standard, whilst maintaining that character and creativity that is so sought after in the Cotswolds. In a blissful location, The Old School House is an absolute gem and is offered on a long let, bills-excluded basis.
