High Street, Longborough, Moreton-in-Marsh, Gloucestershire, GL56

Carpenters sits within the highly desirable village of Longborough and has the benefit of stunning views across the Cotswold landscape. The property is unusual in so far as you approach the house through a walled entrance, which in turn leads into a wonderful courtyard terrace area.The current courtyard house was architect designed to bring the outside into the house by maximising the light and views of the green space, by extensively using triple glazed Swiss made frameless sliding doors. The house flows into the large courtyard which transitions seamlessly into the garden and countryside beyond. All this is conveniently combined with a village location with easy access to the shop, primary school, pub and Longborough Festival Opera. As you enter the property the spacious entrance hall has a complete wall of built-in cupboards that cleverly hide away the utility area. The rear hall has a cloakroom and leads through to the dining room. Beyond the dining room is the spacious drawing room with a log-burning stove. No doubt the heart of the home is the wonderful kitchen/dining/family room with a full range of fitted units, integrated fridge freezer, dishwasher, gas hob, extractor fan and oven. Upstairs are three double bedrooms with a family shower room and en suite bathroom to the principal bedroom. Completely separate from the main house and approached from the courtyard is the annexe. Currently used as a separate art studio and office, there is also a shower room and this could be converted to additional guest accommodation or self-contained accommodation.
