Glebe House, Sapperton, Gloucestershire GL7

Accessed via electric gates and a large, sweeping driveway, the house offers exceptional, light-filled entertaining space. The ground floor benefits from underfloor heating throughout, while newly installed log burners in both the drawing room and study provide warmth and character.
A beautifully designed orangery extends the living space, creating a generous family dining area with direct access to the gardens. The bespoke kitchen, crafted by Parlour Farm Kitchens of Cirencester, features brand-new appliances and a walk-in larder.
The first floor comprises four well-proportioned double bedrooms, each with en suite bathrooms finished in elegant travertine tiles and featuring underfloor heating. All bedrooms enjoy impressive ceiling heights and delightful views over the surrounding gardens.
