5 bedroom detached house for sale

Sevenhampton House is an attractive Grade II Listed Cotswold village house constructed of ashlar stone elevations beneath a traditional Cotswold tiled roof, complemented by two pitched dormer windows. The current owner has thoughtfully enhanced the property with a sympathetic two-storey extension, seamlessly integrating with the original architecture. The approach is via an enclosed porch leading into an impressive dining hall featuring exposed beams, flagstone flooring and a timber staircase. The elegant sitting room benefits from a dual aspect, exposed wooden flooring and an attractive fireplace. The kitchen/breakfast room spans the width of the older part of the house and features: bespoke fitted cabinetry, quartz work surfaces, breakfast bar, part-vaulted ceiling, French doors opening to the rear garden, and room for a dining table that seats up to 10 people. The newer wing provides a highly practical addition, incorporating a utility room, cloakroom, family room and study. On the first floor, the original house offers two well-proportioned bedrooms and a family bathroom with a full-height window overlooking the garden. The principal suite, situated within the extension, enjoys a vaulted ceiling, excellent storage, far-reaching views and a well-appointed ensuite. The second floor comprises two further characterful bedrooms, one with an ensuite shower room.OutsideTo the front, the property is enclosed by low dry stone walling, with gravelled areas and mature hedging. Parking is available on a block-paved driveway to the front, with additional private parking accessed via a separate driveway to the side. A stone archway leads to a rear courtyard with integral storage, from which steps rise to a terraced area and a detached outbuilding, currently used as a gym and secure storage. The building offers further potential, subject to the necessary consents. The gardens are arranged in two principal areas, predominantly laid to lawn with well-stocked borders, mature hedging and attractive rural views.SituationThe hamlet of Sevenhampton is within an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty providing a myriad of footpaths and bridleways across lovely rolling countryside.
