A stylish Cotswold house in a renowned village

Description

The owners have invested considerably in the extensive renovation of the property to an exacting standard. This light and deceptively spacious property offers beautifully presented accommodation and interior throughout that is set out over two floors with plenty of storage space.

Earby House is ideal for entertaining with a generous sitting room featuring a wood burning stove and a contemporary open plan kitchen with dining area.
