Manor Gardens, Lechlade, Gloucestershire GL7

If you seek a unique home within proximity of shops yet away from roads, then this delightful home set within a walled garden is worth a look. An imaginatively designed home ready for occupancy.

Tucked away within the enchanting grounds of the former walled gardens of historic Lechlade Manor. Originally part of the manor’s gardens and coach houses, the estate was thoughtfully converted in the early 2000s to create a collection of period residences and characterful new cottages, each designed to reflect the heritage of the manor.

Traditionally constructed of red brick and rendered elevations set beneath a pitched blue slate and conservation tiled roof, this attractive home has the comfort of a gas fired heating system and sealed double glazed casement windows.

The kitchen is a splendid size that comfortably accommodates space for dining, it reflects a range of fitted base and wall mounted units incorporating gas hob, extractor and eye level oven. Glazed door opens into the garden. Adjoining the kitchen is the sitting room, again a good-sized room well lit by two windows, glazed door and two Velux roof lights. A door leads into the double bedroom with fitted wardrobes and en suite shower room. The ground floor further encompasses a second sitting room or bedroom with feature fireplace opening into a conservatory with views of the grounds. There is a separate bathroom featuring white suite.

East House occupies a corner position within this former walled garden. Pedestrian gate leads from the communal gardens into the private garden, which has been predominantly hard landscaped and features mature planting, lawn and raised beds.
