Location

South Cerney is a delightful Cotswolds village situated five miles south of Cirencester, with pubs, a Co-op convenience store, village hall, dental clinic and a primary school.

The village is also situated in the Cotswold Lakes providing a number of leisure opportunities.

Communications are first class with a direct service from Kemble (about four miles) to London Paddington taking approximately 80 minutes. Both the M4 and M5 are easily accessible via the A417/419 dual carriageways.

The local area has a wide selection of highly regarded schools in both the public and private sectors and the property is within the catchment for both Kingshill and Deer Park Schools in Cirencester. Private schools include Hatherop Castle, Rendcomb College, Prior Park in Cricklade as well as the schools and colleges in Cheltenham.

Description

In a prime position at the heart of a charming village, surrounded by amenities and in close proximity to the Cotswold Lakes, this end-of-terrace home is the perfect character cottage. The house is believed to be 17th century and is constructed from Cotswold stone under a stone slate roof, with a number of period features internally including an original fireplace, exposed beams and floor tiles. The interiors are beautifully presented in an elegant, country style that complements the character of the house, with cream carpets, light-coloured walls and a cream-painted kitchen making the interiors feel light and airy.

The cottage is entered to the side onto an entrance hall with a cloakroom/WC. Doors lead to the kitchen at the rear, which has a view over the garden from the Belfast sink, and the spacious sitting/dining room which has a wood-burning stove and French doors opening to the garden and terrace. Upstairs there are three lovely bedrooms and a family bathroom.

Outside
The cottage is situated at the end of a pretty terrace on a popular road that runs through the centre of South Cerney. To the side of the house there is a gravel parking space for a small car in front of the single garage with barn-style doors, which also has an access door onto the garden. The latter is south facing and is a pleasant space to sit and enjoy warmer days: there are a number of seating areas, beautiful mature borders and flowerbeds, areas of lawn and a established trees. To the rear there is a kitchen garden with raised planters, a greenhouse and a delightful potting shed.
