The Pike, Bibury, Cirencester, Gloucestershire, GL7

An extended, sizeable three-bedroom semi-detached family home nestling in the most tranquil position with views to the front and rear over adjoining farmland. Sitting on the fringes of this ever-popular and picturesque Cotswold village of Bibury, the property is well placed to be close to a wide range of amenities, facilities, and some delightful countryside walks.

The accommodation briefly comprises an entrance hall where there are stairs to the first floor and a door to the downstairs bathroom, which as well as a bath has a separate shower cubicle, wash hand basin, and WC. The dining room has an archway leading through into the kitchen where there are a range of wall and base units with working surfaces over and integral appliances. The sitting room enjoys a dual aspect with a window to the front and french doors leading to the conservatory where you can sit, relax, and overlook the garden. From the kitchen, a door leads to a rear lobby where there is a door to the side and to the workshop.

At first floor level, the landing leads to three bedrooms.

Outside, there is ample driveway parking to the front. Pedestrian access leads to the side of the property to the rear garden which is generous in its proportion. There is a lawn area, a sizeable vegetable plot, and a patio to relax and entertain, all backing onto adjoining farmland.

This property is subject to a covenant under the 157 Housing Act 1985. This covenant is entered on the title of all homes originally sold under the Right to Buy Scheme in the Cotswold area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. This is to ensure homes developed with public funding are retained by people with a local connection and who will live in the property as their only home. In accordance with the statute, consent is also needed if the property is to be let.

Bibury is a charming, typically Cotswold, village just a short drive from "The Capital of the Cotswolds", Cirencester. Bibury was once described by William Morris (1834-96) as "the most beautiful village in England".

Attractions in Bibury include Arlington Row, a row of weavers cottages built of local stone next to the River Coln, Arlington Mill, the Bibury Trout Farm and the Saxon Church, the Church of St Mary. The north Chancel wall of the Church is home to a stained glass window which was designed in 1927 by Karl Parsons and was featured in the 1992 Christmas stamp set issued by the Royal Mail.

The River Coln flows through Bibury sandwiched between the main village street and an expanse of boggy water meadow known as Rack Isle. With Arlington Row as a backdrop, it makes one of the most picturesque scenes you will find in the Cotswolds.
