About this property
Garden House is a beautifully restored Grade II Listed village home, finished to an exceptional standard and set within an idyllic south‐facing landscaped garden.
The dining room, with its restored flagstone floor and impressive fireplace with wood‐burning stove, leads through to a stunning bespoke kitchen/breakfast room by Stroud Furniture Makers. Leathered granite worktops, a central worktable, Lacanche induction range, a marble‐shelved larder and hidden coffee station create a refined and functional heart to the home. Bespoke cast‐iron French doors by Cotswolds Casements open onto the garden and courtyard, while a light‐filled glass atrium provides a perfect spot for informal seating. The utility room, also bespoke, offers practical external access, and underfloor heating warms both the kitchen and atrium. The sitting room features traditional panelling and a wood‐burning stove, and the adjoining family room opens onto the garden via classic French doors. A cloakroom, finished with Timorous Beasties wallpaper, completes the ground floor. Upstairs, the first floor offers three double bedrooms. The principal bedroom includes excellent storage and a luxurious en suite with a roll‐top bath and separate shower. A family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms. The top floor houses a charming fourth bedroom with pitched roof, open‐plan en suite with freestanding bath, and far‐reaching countryside views. Additional fitted storage enhances the first‐floor landing.
At the top of the garden, a versatile outbuilding with independent heating and a shower room provides an ideal home office, studio, gym, or fifth bedroom. Throughout the house, modern upgrades include a new heat pump, remote‐operated thermostats, smart lock, integrated alarm, multi‐room sound system, Gigaclear broadband with Cat 6 connection to the outbuilding, an EV charger, and premium finishes including Mylands and Paint & Paper Library paints, Lefroy Brooks bathroom fittings, Original BTC lighting, and appliances by Lacanche and Miele.
The south‐facing garden is a standout feature, beautifully arranged with lawns, terraced beds, fruit trees, roses, stone walls, and a children's play area. To the front are three off‐street parking spaces, and there are lovely views towards Chastleton House, a National Trust Jacobean manor.
Chastleton is a particularly attractive and unspoilt rural village set within the beautiful Evenlode Valley, perfectly positioned between Moreton‐in‐Marsh, Stow‐on‐the‐Wold and Chipping Norton. These popular market towns provide an excellent range of day‐to‐day amenities, from independent shops and cafs to supermarkets and well‐regarded restaurants. For a wider selection of retail, cultural and educational facilities, Cheltenham, Stratford‐upon‐Avon and Oxford are all within easy reach. The award‐winning Daylesford Farm Shop lies just over 3.5 miles away, while Soho Farmhouse is less than a 30‐minute drive.
Transport links are strong, with regular direct trains from Moreton‐in‐Marsh to London Paddington in under 90 minutes, making the area ideal for both full‐time living and weekend retreats.
The surrounding countryside is designated as a special landscape area, offering superb walking and riding amid rolling fields, wooded valleys and a wealth of historic houses and gardens nearby.
Life in the Cotswolds is enriched by an outstanding year‐round calendar of events, from internationally renowned festivals such as the Cheltenham Literature Festival and Cheltenham Gold Cup Week to major music and cultural gatherings including the Wilderness Festival and the Big Feastival, alongside an ever‐changing programme of concerts, exhibitions, arts events and theatrical performances.
