The house is approached via a welcoming entry porch which leads into the principal reception rooms, immediately establishing the comfortable and well-proportioned nature of the accommodation. At one end of the house is a well-appointed kitchen/breakfast room, arranged to provide both practical workspace and informal dining.

Positioned adjacent to the kitchen is a formal dining room with fireplace, creating an excellent arrangement for both family life and entertaining.

A further reception room, currently used as a study, leads to a substantial double height sitting room, sympathetically converted from the original
cow barn. The room benefits from excellent natural light, a large wood burning stove and double sliding doors leading out onto the garden.

A cloakroom completes the ground floor. Outside the kitchen is a utility room and two storage areas with stairs leading to loft spaces above.

rooms have magnificent views across the Painswick valley.

The principal bedroom benefits from an adjoining bathroom, creating a comfortable and private suite within the house.

Further bedrooms are well proportioned and served by a family bathroom and separate lavatory, making the property ideally suited to family or
guests. Also on the first floor is a comfortable double with a triple aspect and built in storage.

The second floor provides two double bedrooms together with a substantial central playroom, offering flexible additional living space suitable for older children, hobbies, games or ancillary accommodation.

Outbuildings and equestrian facilities

A particularly significant feature of Lovers Hall Farm is the exceptional range of outbuildings, which considerably enhance the versatility and
lifestyle appeal of the property.

Across the lawn from the house is a light-filled garden room, currently used as an artist’s studio. Well-insulated with its own log burner and large
sliding windows, this is an ideal space for working, with views across the garden.

Set away from the house is a substantial detached garage, together with numerous useful outbuildings including garden stores, machinery and mower sheds.

The stable yard comprises 4 loose boxes together with tack room, feed store, hay barn and cloakroom, creating a practical and well-arranged
setup for those with equestrian interests.

Gardens and grounds

Lovers Hall Farm is set within approximately 15.87 acres comprising formal gardens, grounds and paddocks creating an outstanding lifestyle
property ideally suited to equestrian or recreational use.

The well-established gardens surrounding the house provide an attractive outdoor living space. Lawns, flower beds, a pond, seating areas and a brick-built barbeque, make it ideal for outdoor entertaining.

Beyond the formal gardens, there is an orchard planted with apples, cherries, pears and plums. The land extends into a series of paddocks
and fields offering year-round grazing and recreational opportunities.

For riders, there is a 40m x 20m all-weather floodlit arena and excellent hacking direct from the property. The grounds provide a rare combination of practicality, privacy, and flexibility, while enjoying attractive outlooks across the surrounding countryside.
