An immaculately presented four-bedroom period home occupying a private and elevated position with views across the countryside surrounding Tetbury. Features include generous front and rear gardens, off-street parking for multiple vehicles and all within walking distance of the town centre.

This charming home is situated on Cirencester Road, which is to the northern side of Tetbury town centre and walkable of all the local amenities. The property is believed to date back to the late 1800’s and forms part of a terrace built as railway workers cottages. The current owners have been calling the house home for the past 10 years and they have sympathetically extended and improved the accommodation. This includes a loft conversion and a single storey extension to the rear, plus oak internal doors throughout and replacement sash windows. Today the house offers approximately 1243 sq.ft spread across three floors, and is lovingly presented whilst retaining elements of period charm.

Entering the property via the front door leads into a bright and light hallway with space for coat hooks, doors to the sitting room and kitchen as well as stairs that rise to the first floor. The sitting room sits to the front of the property and boasts a beautiful bay window that engulfs the space in natural light due to the south-east facing aspect, plus a focal fireplace with a wood burner inset, an oak mantel and stone hearth. At the rear of the ground floor, the open-plan kitchen/living room reaches the width of the property and enjoys underfloor heating and bi-fold doors that open onto the patio terrace. This room is an exceptionally sociable space for entertaining and offers ample space for both a dining table and a sofa area, in addition to the excellently appointed, fitted kitchen. There are a generous selection of wall and base units with solid stone worktops and integrated appliances comprising a dishwasher, induction hob, electric oven and a fridge freezer. There is a further store cupboard under the stairs, and another focal brick fireplace with a second wood burner installed. A utility room completes the ground floor, which is accessed from the kitchen, and has space and plumbing for washing machine, a fitted larder cupboard and houses the gas combination boiler. This room also has a W.C and wash basin.

Rising up to the first floor is a welcoming landing space with doors into three of the four bedrooms, and the principal bathroom. Two of the bedrooms are of double size and provide ample space for freestanding furniture, and the third a single which is current utilised as an office. Both the front bedrooms enjoy a far-reaching view across the outskirts of Tetbury and the Cotswold countryside beyond. The bathroom comprises a white suite including a freestanding, roll-top bath, a separate shower cubicle, W.C and wash basin. The room is finished with solid oak flooring, white tiling and a traditional towel radiator.

Further stairs from the landing rise to the second floor, which is a loft conversion completed in February 2020 that now offers the final bedroom and an en-suite shower room. The room is of double proportions and benefits access to fitted storage within the eaves and again is light filled owing to four skylight windows; two on each aspect.

Externally, the property sits centrally within generous gardens to both the front and rear. At the front is a gradually sloping lawn with various trees and decorative box hedging. There is also a pathway leading down to Cirencester Road, which is shared with the neighbours in the terrace. The rear garden has been tastefully landscaped to include a fantastic patio terrace that leads directly out from the house. There are flagstones laid to create a large dining area, perfect for outdoor dining in the warmer months, plus Cotswold stone walling with a built-in outdoor fireplace and chimney, and a cleverly recessed store cupboard with wooden doors fitted. An original Victorian water tank arch, build in red brick, has been exposed and partly glazed over to preserve and highlight this historical feature beside the patio. A couple of steps and a path lead through the lawned garden to a second terrace, which has access to the rear portion of the garage, which has been cleverly converted into an office space with French doors.
