Kemps Lane, Painswick

A spacious and light-filled arts and crafts inspired home located in the heart of the sought after village of Painswick offering sensational views, beautifully landscaped garden, swimming pool, garage and parking.

Description - Ladymead offers a spacious and light-filled home nestled in the heart of the historic village of Painswick.

Inspired by the Arts and Crafts era, the home has a wonderful sense of elegance, alongside well-proportioned rooms that work equally well for entertaining as they do for everyday living.

A good-sized reception hall with original parquet flooring, sets the tone to the property, which is warm and welcoming.

The kitchen is clearly the heart of the home with bespoke blue/grey units and wooden worktops, creating ample discreet storage and plentiful space for food preparation. A tiled floor makes for easy living. A stunning garden room leads off the kitchen. Offering the perfect spot to soak up the sensational valley views, the garden room is used as both a snug and for everyday dining by the current vendor.

The sitting and dining room are open-plan, with parquet flooring throughout, creating a wonderful sense of flow. Both rooms overlook the valley and garden and offer the perfect space for hosting, as well as cosy nights in. Doors open from the sitting room to a patio area and the garden, making this a great space for alfresco dining.

An inner hall leads to a cloakroom and a sizeable utility, ideal for hiding laundry and country paraphernalia. A second reception room is located at the end of the inner hall, with doors opening to the garden. Currently used as a snug/family room, the room would work equally well as a ground floor, fourth bedroom.

The first floor comprises three good-sized double bedrooms, the principal with en-suite and walk-in dressing room and bedroom two with an en-suite shower room. All the bedrooms have been thoughtfully laid out to provide both comfort and ample storage and the two rear facing bedrooms benefit from exceptional views across the garden and valley. A family bathroom is also located at this level.

A purpose-made ladder leads to a large attic room, fully boarded and with natural light, used by the current vendor as an overflow bedroom and office space.

Garden - The garden is clearly much loved and a real feature of the property, thoughtfully landscaped, with an array of well-stocked borders, cosy corners and a choice of seating areas.

A good-sized heated swimming pool sits at the centre of the plot and a summerhouse provides the perfect spot to relax or change into swimwear.

A meandering path leads around the garden, with manicured topiary hedging providing privacy and a well-stocked vegetable plot hidden away at the bottom of the garden. A greenhouse and large shed offer practical growing and storage space. A garage and gravel area are located to the front of the house, with parking for several cars.
