Eastleach, Cirencester, Gloucestershire, GL7

A unique Cotswold cottage set within this idyllic village, away from main roads within the heart of the Leach valley.

In 1875, five cottages were commissioned on behalf of the local estate. Traditionally constructed of local stone with mullion windows, set beneath a pitched blue slate roof, the cottages occupy a prominent position, lying to the south of the village public house within the conservation area. They are Listed Grade II for their historical importance.
Number 44 Eastleach, also fondly known locally as ‘The Clock House’ lies on the western end of the row. The cottage accommodates the village clock and the occupiers are required to keep in working order.
The cottage offers accommodation over two floors, briefly comprising front door leading into an entrance lobby, providing access to both reception rooms

The current sitting/dining room features an open fireplace and window to front aspect, door to cloakroom and inner lobby. The sitting room has a wood burning stove, dual aspect and door to the kitchen. Fitted with a range of base and wall mounted units, the kitchen adjoins a breakfast space with door to garden and site of newly installed oil-fuelled boiler.
There are two double bedrooms to the first floor, one offering a sizeable store; the bathroom completes the accommodation.
