Description

Description

Lilac Cottage is a charming and very pretty semi-detached Cotswold stone period cottage situated in the heart of the peaceful village of Sopworth located on the doorstep of the Badminton Estate. The well-presented accommodation has been updated in recent years and is arranged over three floors extending in all to 1,269 sq.ft. The cottage has a plethora of charm with notable features including excellent ceiling height in the living room, window seats, exposed beams and a traditional stone fireplace.
 
The ground floor opens to an entrance hall with the configuration including a living room, kitchen/dining room, and useful utility/downstairs WC. The refitted kitchen/dining room has slate tiled flooring and a former bread oven has been retained as a lovely feature. The dual-aspect living room features the magnificent inglenook fireplace as the focal point complete with a wood burning stove inset. On the first floor, there are two spacious double bedrooms and a well-appointed bathroom. The top floor offers a further double bedroom with ample built-in storage, including a convenient walk-in wardrobe.

The south-facing garden is a particular highlight, occupying a private corner plot. Enclosed by traditional Cotswold stone walling and fencing, the garden is laid to lawn with beautifully stocked flower beds and shrub borders. An inviting gravelled seating terrace adjoins the kitchen, perfect for outdoor entertaining and relaxation. On street parking is conveniently available outside. 

Situation

The pretty unspoilt Cotswold village of Sopworth is situated amidst some delightful countryside close to the Gloucestershire border in the heart of Beaufort Country. Sopworth is about 6 miles south west of Tetbury and 6 miles west of Malmesbury. The village, which is set close to the heart of the Badminton Estate, has many fine old houses and cottages, most of which will have formed part of the Estate at some point. As such the village is largely protected by the surrounding park and farmland. Within striking distance are popular villages such as Sherston, which has a wide range of amenities, Westonbirt with its excellent school and renowned arboretum, and Didmarton with a popular pub. For shopping, Tetbury provides two supermarkets, many antique shops and fine food outlets. Bristol, Bath and Cirencester are within 23, 19 and 18 miles respectively. The surrounding countryside provides a wonderful source of walks and opportunities to ride. Sopworth adjoins Badminton Estate, the home of the Duke of Beaufort and the venue of the Badminton Horse Trials. There is a golf course at Westonbirt and an outstanding course at Minchinhampton.
