The Vine Yard, Stanton, Broadway, Gloucestershire, WR12

An attractive Cotswold stone house, tucked away in the sought-after village of Stanton.

The Stumps is a handsome, architecturally designed house built in 2001 to a high specification. Situated off a shared, private drive overlooking the village cricket ground, it is presented in extremely good decorative order. There are four reception rooms including a generous vaulted garden room with French doors leading out to the courtyard garden. There are flagstones in the kitchen and entrance hall and a Painswick stone fireplace in the sitting room. The first floor consists of 2 guest suites, 2 further bedrooms and a family bathroom. The second floor offers 2 further rooms, ideal as bedrooms with a Jack & Jill shower room.

The property benefits from a double garage as well as ample parking and there is a delightful courtyard garden with well stocked borders and a pergola. The gardens are designed for all year-round colour but with minimum maintenance work. The courtyard is partly paved and partly gravelled. There are also lawned areas in front of the house with mature shrubs, young silver birch trees and a path leading to the front door. The drive is to the left-hand side of the house leading to the garage and parking area, set behind solid timber gates.
