Petty France, Badminton, GL9

Charming countryside retreat in this 2 bedroom gem of a barn conversion, sitting in about 2.5-acre communal grounds. Part of a secure gated complex, this property was restored and converted in early 2000s from a group of outbuildings associated with the former Petty France Hotel. The property brims with bespoke fittings designed to enhance and preserve the features of the original stone buildings that are Grade II listed.

There are stunning country views from the rear, to enjoy the setting evening sun! Beautifully presented accommodation includes a sociable open-plan living room and spacious kitchen, dining area, landing, 2 bedrooms and shower room: with high ceilings to promote a light-and-airy feel throughout. The master bedroom benefits from a reading area/office with panoramic views across the 1.6-acre shared gardens to unspoiled fields beyond. Going outside from the living room, French doors open to an ‘owned’ patio that is South-West facing to the garden, and there are two sheds and two allocated parking spaces. Attractively finished in traditional materials, the natural stone walls feature stone arch lintels, under a Cotswold stone tile roof, and solid oak doors, windows and beams. Stable Yard enjoys a private environment behind a 5-bar gate with plenty of visitor car parking. It has direct access to miles of countryside footpaths through fields and woodlands, connecting you to the nearby villages of Horton, Hawkesbury Upton, Badminton and beyond. Truly something a bit different from the run-of-the-mill, this delightful home is offered for sale with no onward chain.
