Gretton, Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, GL54

A beautifully presented detached family home with immaculate gardens, parking and a picturesque countryside and village setting.

This charming home is positioned in a quiet and private enclave of just two other properties, in the heart of this wonderful village.  Individually designed and built in the classic mellow Cotswold stone, the attractive facade has the look of a symmetrical cottage set which extends out at the rear with a clever layout that allows for the reception rooms to enjoy peaceful views over the gardens.

The standard of finish throughout is both immaculate and of high quality, yet the current, and only owners, have taken the original structure and upgraded elements of the house, to create a contemporary feel with all modern commodities added for extra comfort.  The ground floor contains the practical living space around a reception hall, to one side is the spacious sitting room with views to the front and French doors opening to the sun terrace and garden and the rear.

To the other side, in symmetry, is the formal dining room, also with side access and double doors that open to the rear part of the house and to the magnificent, open plan kitchen/breakfast/family room.

This entire space benefits from its southerly aspect, and natural light floods the glazed doors and lantern above the dining area, the kitchen itself is well appointed with a range of neutral fitted units, quality integrated appliances and an oversized breakfast island unit all designed to overlook the terrace and garden making it a superb room for both entertaining and family life. Off the inner hallway is a cloakroom, and a useful utility room is off the dining room.  

On the first floor are four double bedrooms.  The principal bedroom has a luxury shower en suite. The guest bedroom also enjoys an en suite shower room.  The two remaining bedrooms share a family bathroom.

Outside:
The setting is much of the charm of this lovely home, positioned within its gardens and forming an attractive scene of just two other houses.  To the rear is the landscaped gardens that enjoys a southerly aspect and owing to this the entire property and gardens enjoy all day sun.  To the front of the house there is parking for three cars.

Situation:
Gretton is a hugely sought after village, about 9 miles north of Cheltenham and just a mile from cultural Winchcombe.  The village is best known for its active community where life centres around an excellent primary school, church and pub. Winchcombe itself is within a bike ride or short drive, an excellent market town that offers everything to the discerning buying, including a well-stocked local shop, various eateries, excellent pubs and coffee shops and some independent shops.

Gretton offers the best of both worlds, semi-rural living yet with easy access to the main centre of Cheltenham and close to the very best of The Cotswold's, with Stow on The Wold, Daylesford, Kingham and Broadway all within a twenty minute drive. For the commuter, fast trains from Kingham and Evesham to London and easy M5 motorway access.
