Description

Positioned within sight and earshot of the gently cascading Blockley Brook in the grounds of what was one of Blockley's seven former silk mills, this Grade II listed, 3 storey, 1-bedroomed period cottage is full of the innate character and charm of the early Victorian period and is strongly recommended for inspection by those looking for a second home or a holiday home for investment purposes.

Approached through an archway into a secret wooded hideaway location, adjacent to the mill stream, the property lies within it's own protected environment and enjoys a particularly tranquil location. The property has been used as a holiday cottage over the last 22 years with many repeat bookings.

The property now features a welcoming living kitchen on the ground floor with a rustic brick fireplace and a homely woodburning stove. There is a stylish fitted kitchen, gas fired central heating from a combination boiler and a recently renewed ensuite bathroom to the bedroom on the second floor in addition to a ground floor cloakroom and w.c.

Period features include leaded small paned windows with two built-in window seats in the cosy living room on the first floor and many exposed beams and roof timbers. Externally, the four cottages within this small mews, overlook and can use the lawned area immediately in front of the cottages and beyond which there is unallocated parking for one vehicle for this property.

The environment in itself is rather special with the mill race flowing in to a large former mill pond with a Monet-style bridge and landscaped garden.

Blockley Court is located only a short walk from the centre of one of the most popular villages in the north Cotswolds with two public houses and a fashionable village shop and cafe, which doubles as a fine dining restaurant many evenings a week. Walks in the surrounding countryside in an area of outstanding natural beauty can be enjoyed directly from the cottage, especially at the end of the High Street which terminates in Dovedale Woods.

The village is positioned mid-way between the Cotswold cafe society of Chipping Campden and the more traditional Cotswold market town of Moreton-in-Marsh where there are links to Oxford and London Paddington.
