6 bed detached house for sale

Arlington Green, Bibury, Cirencester, Gloucestershire GL7

Quintessentially Cotswold. An immaculate detached cottage overflowing with character.

The charming Cotswold village of Bibury lies within the Cotwsolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. William Morris described Bibury as the “most beautiful village in England”.

The village itself has a village store, café, deli and coffee shop a hotel and pub and the nearby villages of Burford and Northleach provide shopping facilities for day-to-day needs, whilst the larger market town of Cirencester (about 7 miles) provides more extensive shopping and
recreational facilities. The larger centres of Cheltenham and Oxford are also within easy
reach.
Bank Cottages formerly comprised two independent C17 homes. The current owners, having happily resided for many years in one, had the option to buy the adjoining cottage, some years ago. Successful in the purchase they set about joining the two together. The skilful yet sympathetic work has now created a splendid home with immense character offering a flexible layout, either as one home or it could easily afford a division to accommodate a blended or two generation family.

Beautifully presented, this charming cottage sits proud upon the bank looking towards Awkward Hill and convenient for the village amenities.

The layout currently provides entrance hall that serves three reception rooms and support kitchen. Both sitting rooms offer dual aspect, open fireplaces each housing wood burning stoves. The kitchen is well appointed with a range of bespoke units incorporating domestic appliances with breakfast dining off. A jewel to this home is the dining room with its stone barrelled ceiling, a superb space to entertain. A cloakroom and utility complete the ground floor. The first floor is accessed via two stairwells that serve four bedrooms, two bathrooms and study. Stairs rise to the second floor where a delightful fifth bedroom is located.

Grounds include a private alfresco terrace, well-maintained lawns bound by stone walling and well stocked herbaceous borders. Parking for four cars.
A true Cotswold gem!
