Believed to date back, in part, to the 1600’s, Church House has been sympathetically improved during the current owner’s tenure and sits in a substantial plot of 0.61 of an acre in an enviable location, nestled alongside the grounds of St Nicholas Church and with a separate paddock approaching an acre. The property provides four-bedroom accommodation in excess of 2700 sq.ft, which is laid out over two floors and retains a great deal of character, from flagstone floors to wood panelling, exposed stonework and timber beams. A spacious reception hall with a cloakroom leads to a generous kitchen/breakfast room which is undoubtably the focal point of the home, overlooking the beautiful front garden and providing spacious open plan living, conducive to modern family life. The kitchen is well-equipped, with a walk-in pantry and provides ample space for a large dining set, as well as further seating in front of the fire. A separate dining room, and a sitting room, are situated at the other end of the hall, both with a range of character features, the latter benefitting from an attractive fireplace with inset gas fire and the dining room has been finished with beautiful wood-panelling. A study and a utility/boot room complete the picture on the ground floor. The first floor plays host to an impressive principal bedroom, complete with a large ensuite bathroom and a walk-through dressing room with an abundance of built-in wardrobes. There are three further, spacious bedrooms on the first floor, and a family bathroom.

OUTSIDE
The grounds at Church House extend to 1.53 acres, split between mature, formal gardens and a separate paddock adjacent to the property with Cotswold stone walling, mature hedging, trees and a hard standing ideal for a horse box. The gardens envelop the property and are well-stocked and beautifully maintained with mature planting, shrubs and trees, well-manicured formal lawns and a range of paved terraces in order to enjoy outdoor entertaining. Upon entering, a gravel driveway provides parking for several vehicles and secure, internal gates lead to a further driveway, double garaging and an extensive workshop. Beyond the outbuildings, lies a vegetable garden with a stunning outlook over the grounds of St Nicholas Church.

N.B. A pedestrian right of way to the church exists between the rear garden and the ancillary vegetable patch.
