Description

Positioned in the centre of one of the most desirable villages in the North Cotswolds, and undoubtedly one of Blockley's best kept secrets, this end one of four, two storey, split-level barn conversion, is one of only nine properties within 1.25 acres of partially-communal grounds fronting the gently cascading Blockley brook, and with excellent views over sweeping lawned areas towards the beautifully landscaped gardens of the Manor House. The property owns two parking spaces.

The property itself is the result of a conversion of a former farm building that has been extended to incorporate a west wing which is now a stunning living space with 14ft high ceiling, and a mezzanine - perfect as an occasional fourth bedroom/study.

The main section of the cottage has a through living and dining area, formed in part open-plan with the stylishly re-fitted kitchen, with limestone style flooring, solid beech worktops, and a range of stylish fitted cupboards and built-in appliances. Double doors from the dining area open onto the beautifully presented and well-screened south-facing garden.

In this section of the property there are three bedrooms at first floor level all with superb views over the grounds of Lower Farm Cottages.

The 'wow factor' of the property, however, is the stunning main living room, which has a Scandinavian wood burning stove, electric under floor heating to the Travertine stone floor, and beyond which there is a separate utility room and wet room.

The cottage has a real atmospheric charm which can only be fully appreciated first hand, and internal inspection is strongly advised.

Blockley is located mid-way between the cafe society of Chipping Campden and the more traditional market town of Moreton-in-Marsh, where there are rail links to London Paddington. The village has its own shop and cafe which opens as a restaurant several evenings a week, two public houses, a hotel and primary school.
