3 bed detached house for sale

Millers, Westonbirt, Tetbury, Gloucestershire GL8

Just a stone's throw from the leafy walks of Westonbirt Arboretum, Millers sits quietly at the heart of a small, characterful development of converted barns and former farm buildings, each with its own story to tell. Once part of Home Farm to Westonbirt House, this house is no ordinary conversion; it is an inspired transformation that honours its agricultural past while embracing an elegant, modern country lifestyle.
Approached via a private road and charming courtyard, the entrance has double doors that lead straight into the kitchen and entrance hall. The kitchen is beautifully considered, with a central island perfect for convivial cooking, ample storage, and integrated appliances tucked discreetly into bespoke cabinetry. From here, doors swing open to the garden, offering an effortless flow between indoors and out-ideal for summer suppers and morning coffee in the sun.
Beyond is an inner hall with pale parquet flooring that gleams underfoot, while the stairway rises gently to the first floor with a stunning glass staircase. Off the hall are a utility room and a cloakroom, which were once the original front entrance.
The drawing room is arguably the heart of the house. A graceful, light-filled space with sash windows, rustic beams salvaged from the old barns, and more of that soft parquet underfoot. French doors open to the terrace, inviting the garden in and giving this room a tranquil, almost poetic feel.
Upstairs, the principal bedroom has natural light, thanks to an elegant trio of windows, including a central arched feature. The en suite bathroom makes for a private, peaceful retreat. A guest suite sits across the landing, spacious and serene, with handsome stone mullioned windows on two sides, a dressing room, and a smart en suite bathroom.
There is a well-appointed dressing room and a beautifully finished family bathroom with both a bath and a separate shower. Then there's the hidden wing: A charming internal passageway, more bridge than corridor, crosses the drive like a secret walkway. With lighting on both sides, it leads to a third bedroom/library and a spiral staircase that winds down to a further reception room (ideal for a 4th bedroom if needed) currently used as a cinema.

Gardens:
The south-facing garden is nothing short of spectacular. Bathed in sunshine from dawn until dusk, it feels like a secret world of its own: Beautifully tended, blissfully private, and made for lingering. A paved terrace spills out from the house, perfect for long lunches, evening drinks, or quiet moments with a book. Beyond, lawns stretch out with quiet elegance, bordered by mature plantings that soften and shelter. There's a tucked-away corner with an outbuilding, and the whole space is layered with atmosphere, part country garden, part green sanctuary.

Services:
Mains water, electricity and private drainage. Oil fired central heating. Fibre Broadband to the house.
