Shipton Moyne, Tetbury

Accompanied by a generous garden and paddock reaching three acres (approx.), an attractive Cotswold stone home on the outskirts of a desirable Tetbury village.

Crossroads has been home to the current owner since the 1990’s and provides a truly unique detached home with enormous scope within the sought-after village of Shipton Moyne. The property was sympathetically extended by the current owner in 2000/2001 and today stands as a well-proportioned home of just over 2000sq.ft of accommodation that is set across two floors. Externally there is a detached outbuilding that combines both a workshop and garage, along with a paddock that has independent vehicle access and a timber-built shelter.

The accommodation is commenced via the front door that leads into the entrance hallway. Here there is a solid oak floor that runs throughout and continues into the adjacent reception room that provides both sitting and dining areas. This is a beautifully light filled room from its quadruple aspect, which also includes French doors opening onto the garden. There is a centrally positioned, focal open fireplace that has a solid wooden surround and mantel. Walking back across the hallway passes a handy boot room, which has a further door to the gardens and houses the oil-fired central heating boiler, before reaching a second reception room. This space creates a natural study with a three-bay window that looks out to the front lawn. Beyond the study is a rear hallway with a handy utility and cloakroom with W.C to one side, along with a door to the kitchen on the other. The kitchen is a well-proportioned room with another focal fireplace to one end, two windows running along the side elevation of the property and an original turned staircase is found to one corner with a useful store cupboard underneath. A collection of base units and a wall cupboard are fitted to one side of the room and provide space for an electric cooker and under-counter fridge.

The first floor of the property comprises three principal bedrooms, but there are two further rooms that could be utilised as occasional bedrooms, a nursery or further home offices to suit the new owner’s needs. With some re-configuration and subject to the relevant permissions, the first floor could be re-designed. The three principal bedrooms are all of double proportions and one has a shower and basin fitted. The accommodation is completed by a family bathroom that has a bath, wash basin and W.C, along with a fitted airing cupboard that houses the hot water cylinder.

Externally the property occupies a peaceful location along a country lane to the northern side of Shipton Moyne. There is a Cotswold stone wall that runs the majority of the property and paddock, and within the garden there are a selection of specimen trees, well-stocked produce beds with a greenhouse and the remainder is laid to lawn. A gated driveway enters in from the road where a generous level of off-street parking is found beside the garage and workshop.

The paddock is bounded by post and rail fencing with a vehicular access to the lane, it benefits a water supply and a timber framed field shelter. In all the grounds reach just shy of 3 acres.

The property is connected to mains electricity and water. Central heating is fired by oil. Drainage is via a private cesspit. The property is freehold.

EPC – Awaited.
