South Cerney, Cirencester, GL7

As with many houses built of this time there are two impressive formal reception rooms situated either side of the entrance hall where the eye is drawn to unexpectedly high ceilings and large sash windows set into stone mullions with working shutters which flood the rooms with natural light. The drawing room enjoys a dual aspect and stripped wood flooring with the dining room being an equally impressive room with beautiful flagstone flooring. Both rooms benefit from elegant stone fireplaces with a fitted wood burner to the dining room. The kitchen breakfast room is also a lovely bright room featuring a part glazed vaulted ceiling, with a comprehensive range of handmade units, designed and installed by Hush kitchens with Calacatta worktops, a quooker tap, top oven with an integrated microwave. To the first floor is a delightful master bedroom with walk in wardrobe and a further spacious dual aspect double bedroom. Both rooms are lit by large sash windows. There is a stunning family bathroom with marble tiles, resin stone sinks, stand alone bath, and separate shower.

The second floor features two generously proportioned bedrooms each beautifully restored timber beams and exposed vaulted ceilings. A modern and well equipped shower room concludes the internal accommodation.

The property is conveniently located within walking distance of a full complement of local amenities situated within the much sought after village of South Cerney, just 4 miles South of Cirencester

Outside

On approaching Edwards College, a driveway for the residents provides access along the front of the building, around to the rear. As you curve round, No.12 is located at the end. A private gravelled parking area is allocated to the property, with an adjacent area of lawn screened by yew trees, and enclosed by estate railings. A further area of land, deemed as agricultural, is laid to lawn with a historical pump building.

This area also gives access to a small paddock, which is owned by the residents for their use if they choose. To the front of the house, and located across the drive, there is a further area of lawn with a large chestnut tree and a gravelled seating area with stunning views over neighbouring parkland. Just behind the property is an attached store room accessed by a small shared courtyard.
