Baunton, Cirencester, Gloucestershire, GL7

A beautifully positioned and comprehensively refurbished Cotswold home, situated in the sought-after village of Baunton, deep within the picturesque Churn Valley.

The property has been refurbished throughout by the current owners, creating a stylish and comfortable home with a particularly flexible layout. A real strength is the extent of the ground-floor accommodation, making the house equally well suited to family life, downsizers, multi-generational living or those looking for a home that can adapt to changing needs over time.

The ground floor provides a welcoming sitting room with log burner and a brand-new kitchen/dining room, complemented by a fully fitted utility room and downstairs cloakroom. There are also three further versatile rooms, offering excellent flexibility as bedrooms, a snug or home office. This adaptable layout lends itself particularly well to predominantly single-level living, visiting guests or multi-generational family life, while still retaining generous and comfortable living space.

To the first floor is a particularly generous principal bedroom, providing a sense of separation from the ground-floor accommodation and enjoying views across the surrounding countryside.

Outside, the property is approached via a country lane and set back from the road behind a sloped driveway providing ample off-road parking. The private and secluded south-westerly facing garden is predominantly laid to lawn, with a dining terrace, large pond and established planting.

A further feature of the garden is the attractive shepherd’s hut, providing a charming and versatile additional space, ideal as a home office, studio, hobby room or simply somewhere to enjoy the peaceful surroundings.

The garden backs directly onto the River Churn, with the property benefiting from fishing rights, adding another special dimension to this wonderfully peaceful and picturesque riverside setting.

With its extensive and adaptable ground-floor accommodation, riverside position and fishing rights, shepherd’s hut and comprehensive refurbishment, this is a particularly special village home offering an excellent combination of flexibility, rural tranquillity and convenient access to Cirencester.
