Description
Charter House, a significant wing of an 18th Century farmhouse, is tucked away in the very heart of the desirable Cotswold village of Colerne. With an unassuming frontage, this Grade II Listed property boasts deceptive and generous accommodation spanning over 2,400 sq.ft., exuding elegance and character throughout. Features include stone mullion and sash windows, traditional fireplaces, exposed beams, and charming panelling details.
The spacious ground floor is designed for both comfortable family living and entertaining, offering three versatile reception rooms, an entrance hall, and an impressive kitchen/breakfast room. The sitting room and drawing room both feature elegant fireplaces, and all three reception rooms interconnect, creating a natural flow. The kitchen is a fantastic focal point, fitted with a large island breakfast bar, an Aga, and a separate oven and hob. A convenient utility/pantry accompanies the kitchen.
Above the kitchen area, there are two well-proportioned double bedrooms and a bathroom. The main first-floor accommodation is accessed via a separate staircase and comprises three additional bedrooms, an office/sixth bedroom, and two further bathroom facilities.
Externally, Charter House benefits from a private driveway providing off-street parking for two cars, a rare and valuable asset for a High Street location. The fully enclosed rear garden offers a secure and private space to enjoy. A spacious terrace, perfect for outdoor entertaining, adjoins the principal ground floor rooms, with steps leading up to a small lawn area.
