Care has been taken to combine the innate character and charm of a mid 19th century period cottage with all the contemporary refinements of modern day living manifest particularly on the lower ground floor where there is a beautiful garden room extension with bi fold doors and a lantern roof.
There are several antique fireplaces, one with a homely woodburning stove, some exposed pointed stonework, original elm floorboards to the spacious through living room and there are some cosy built in window seats.
The property is further warmed with gas fired central heating, mainly with radiators but there is underfloor heating to the garden room and renewed windows with double glazed panes in a fashionable colour scheme. There is limestone flooring to the whole of the lower round floor where there is a separate wc in addition to a very attractive bathroom/wc on the first floor.
Externally the garden is formed on three levels with a dining patio and two lower level lawned areas which ultimately back onto grazing land where deer roam freely creating a real feeling of country living.
Only to be described further in superlatives, the property is perfect as a main or a second home or would be perfect as a holiday cottage for investment purposes.
Blockley is located midway between the cosmopolitan Cotswold Cafe society of Chipping Campden and the more traditional market town of Moreton-in-Marsh where there are rail links to London Paddington. Blockley has two public houses, a small supermarket and a cafe which doubles as a bistro several evenings a week. There are many walks to be enjoyed directly from the cottage in the surrounding countryside in an area of outstanding natural beauty.
