Broadway Road, Winchcombe, Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, GL54

A beautiful detached family home combining classic architecture with contemporary design, set within stunning gardens overlooking the countryside, just a short walk from the centre of Winchcombe.

Green Oak House is an exceptional detached family home set within a large plot, a short walk of Winchcombe's town centre.

Built within the last ten years, it is a home that has been carefully curated, offering classic architecture with the use of contemporary building methods and sustainable materials to create the bespoke house you see today.  In a marriage of glass, oak and brick, the frontage is a timeless facade and at the rear, the addition of a double-height glass and oak structure gives a completely contemporary feel, all whilst adding volume and light to the interiors.  Exacting standards, a well-considered floorplan and attention to detail combine with impressive accommodation, perfect for entertaining and family life alike.

The entrance hall is wide and welcoming, the centre point for the principal reception rooms to connect.  The sitting room is a lovely size and focuses on a wood-burning stove and bi-fold doors that open to the decked terrace and further to the gardens.  On the opposite side of the hall is a formal dining room with pocket doors opening into the contemporary kitchen, allowing the space to be opened or closed as required.

The kitchen/breakfast room itself is the heart of the house, with a focus on the rear elevation of glass offering a natural and open connection to the gardens.  With a contemporary feel, this beautiful room comprises a range of well-appointed units, integrated appliances and an island unit.  To one side is a cloakroom and utility room with rear access, while to the other is a study, also with access to the rear garden.

The first floor offers four double bedrooms, three with en-suite facilities, while a family bathroom serves the remaining bedroom.

The principal suite is particularly impressive, featuring a fully glazed gable end with far-reaching views across the private grounds of Green Oak House, surrounding fields and the River Isbourne. Two of the larger bedrooms also benefit from built-in wardrobes.

Outside: The property is set back from the road and fronted by a large driveway offering parking and access to the garage. The gardens of Green Oak House are simply lovely, enjoying a westerly orientation, the grounds extend to circa 0.3 acres of lawn and includes a small greenhouse.  The gardens are further enhanced by the open views of uninterrupted countryside, and the orientation of the gardens, and the height at which the boundaries are kept, allow for an open aspect to be a sweeping vista for miles.

Situation: Winchcombe is regarded as one of the Cotswolds' most sought-after towns, renowned for its charming and vibrant centre offering an excellent range of cafés, boutiques, restaurants, traditional pubs and everyday amenities. The town is also well served by highly regarded primary and secondary schools.

Set within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Winchcombe is surrounded by rolling countryside, providing some of the finest walking and riding in the Cotswolds. Despite its semi-rural setting, the town is highly accessible, with Cheltenham just six miles away, offering renowned festivals, excellent shopping and exceptional schools including Cheltenham College, Cheltenham Ladies' College and Dean Close.  Transport links are excellent, with regular bus services to Cheltenham, easy access to the M5 at Tewkesbury and routes to the M4 via the A40/A419. Direct rail services to London are available from Cheltenham Spa and Kingham, the latter approximately 35 minutes by car.
