Description: - Carriers Cottage is a sensational Cotswold cottage, clearly renovated with love, attention to detail and creative flare. The accommodation flows beautifully allowing for an abundance of natural light, well designed entertaining spaces and cosy corners.

The kitchen/dining room is clearly the heart of the house and fabulous room in which to entertain family and friends whilst cooking up a feast.

The dining room area is such a great space with gorgeous flooring and plenty of room for a large dining table.

The snug is cosy and quaint and perfect for movie nights and lazy Sunday afternoons with a good book.
The utility room is a great addition to the ground floor perfect for kitchen overflow, piles of washing and winter coats and wellies.

Upstairs comprises the master bedroom with ensuite shower room. There are two further bedrooms and a family shower room. All the rooms have been beautifully laid out to provide ample discreet storage and lovely views over the village and countryside.

The landscaped garden, is predominantly laid to lawn with a pretty water feature, beautiful herbaceous borders and potted plants. The terrace overlooking the garden is ideal for al fresco dining during the warmer months and benefits from the sunshine throughout the day. The thoughtful lighting scheme highlights the outdoor features in the evenings. There is private parking on the driveway and an outbuilding.

Vendors' thoughts: "We came across Carriers Cottage four years ago in a very sorry state, in need of serious updating and extending. However, the position was the key, elevated with views over the Chedworth valley, secluded and not overlooked with only horses and dog walkers passing by. It was clearly going to be a major project. We embraced the current thinking of insulation and alternative heating throughout the house and have been richly rewarded by the results. As we put all our efforts into every minor detail the house does mean a lot to us both which, if not for ill health, would be the perfect last home. Our lovely house can now be someone else’s project to add to and enjoy."

In a nutshell: A sensational Cotswold cottage with exceptional charm and character.
