Description

Standing on the lower slopes of Chosen Hill, The Old School House is a rare opportunity to own a piece of local history. Thought to date from the 1600s, the property was a school for around 130 years in the 17-1800s and is now a delightful and unique home offering character and period details in abundance.

The ground floor accommodation is comprised of a triple-aspect sitting room with oak-panelled fireplace housing a gas stove, a dining room with a brick fireplace housing a gas stove and three sets of French windows overlooking the gardens and a kitchen fitted with a range of oak units. On the first floor, the generous landing creates a sense of space with evenly proportioned bedrooms at either end and a family bathroom in between with a roll-top bath and separate shower enclosure.

An annexe situated behind the double garage offers a spacious living room, a bedroom and shower room and would be perfect for use as guest accommodation, as a holiday rental (STP) or as a home office.

Outside

The gently sloping gardens surround the house and are a feature of the house offering a combination of lawns, well-stocked shrub and plant borders, a vegetable garden and mature specimen trees. A timber deck adjacent to the annexe and paved terraces at either end of the cottage offer options for seating and al fresco entertaining. To the front there is off road parking in addition to the double garage.

Situation

Churchdown is situated between the Cathedral City of Gloucester and Regency town of Cheltenham. Nearby Churchdown Hill (also known locally as Chosen Hill) rises to 154m above sea level and offers panoramic views of the Cotswold escarpment, The Malverns and the Severn Vale. Gloucester and Cheltenham are approximately 5 and 6 miles respectively whilst the M5, A40 and A417 offer easy access to Bath, Bristol, Oxford and the Midlands. Education options in the local area are particularly strong in both the state and private sectors with several primary and two secondary schools in Churchdown whilst nearby independent schools include Kings School in Gloucester, Wycliffe College in Stroud and Cheltenham College, Cheltenham Ladies College and Dean Close in Cheltenham with Grammar schools available in Stroud, Gloucester and Cheltenham. Leisure opportunities nearby include Brickhampton Court Golf Club with football, rugby, tennis and bowls clubs all based in the village.
