Barton-On-The-Heath, Moreton-In-Marsh, GL56

Broomhall Cottage is a recently built generously proportioned house, sensitively constructed of local materials in a period style. The property is situated on the edge of the village with far reaching views over its own land including paddock of just over 3 acres.

We arrive at Broomhall through an attractive wood and iron gate, onto a graveled driveway, with ample parking into a walled courtyard area. Ahead of us, there is a double garage with annex above. To the right, the wide front door in its projecting two story porch. Entering the porch, we find ourselves in a large entrance hall with a trompe l’oeil dressed stone finish to the walls and cupboard for cloak storage. The wide staircase is straight head of us. To the left, the oak-paneled dining room, which currently doubles up as the current owners study. There are windows to three walls, and French windows to the South-East that lead onto the flag stone terrace with Knot garden. Returning to the hall, a downstairs loo with wash basin is on our right. Passing through the entrance hall, the vast dual aspect drawing room with its attractive inglenook fireplace with open fire. To the rear of the entrance hall, the Utility room with built in storage and sink. Beyond, the Aga kitchen with built in appliances, shaker style fitted units with granite worktops, and butler’s sink. There is also a useful island unit at the working end. To the rear of the room, a generous breakfast space and French windows that lead out onto the garden. Behind the dining area glazed double doors lead into a ‘orangery style’ further reception room with Inglenook fireplace containing a log burner. This room has a fully glazed wall to the right and French windows leading on to the flag stoned terrace that links all the reception rooms by their external access.

Upstairs we arrive on a light and spacious landing. To our rear, a double bedroom (bedroom 3) with views over the garden and en-suite shower room. On the landing, there is a deep airing cupboard/linen storage, a further family bathroom with bath and access to storage in the eaves. To our right, bedroom 2 is a double with views over the Cotswold landscape. Bedroom 4 currently serves as a dressing room to the master and has a wealth of fitted wardrobes, but could comfortably serve as a double bedroom if required. The principal bedroom also contains fitted storage, benefits from the rural views and provides access to the en-suite with its loo, bath, double sinks and walk-in shower.

The gardens are terraced, and laid to lawn with formal and secluded areas and well stocked perennial borders. Just the other side of a the quiet private track to the North of the property, a fenced grass paddock of just over 3 acres offers equestrian potential.

Barton-on-the-Heath is an attractive village in the Cotswold AONB with period properties situated in Warwickshire. The village is a short drive from Chipping Norton and Moreton-in-Marsh where we find rail links to London. Popular schools including Kitebrook are a short drive.
