The Chipping, Tetbury, Gloucestershire GL8

Occupying an enviable position in the very heart of Tetbury, The Manse is an elegant Grade II listed townhouse situated on The Chipping, one of the town's most picturesque and historic settings. Renowned for its charming, cobbled streets and the iconic flight of steep stone steps that lead from The Chipping, this instantly recognisable corner of Tetbury is amongst the most photographed and admired in the Cotswolds. Rich in character and period charm, The Manse offers beautifully proportioned accommodation across several floors, providing versatile, practical living in one of the town's most sought-after addresses.
A spacious reception hall and inner hallway form an impressive introduction to the house, with an elegant drawing room positioned to the front, enjoying views across The Chipping and centred around a handsome fireplace. The staircase rises gracefully through the centre of the house, leading from the hall to a formal dining room and a charming farmhouse-style kitchen/breakfast room to the rear. The kitchen is complemented by a useful pantry and adjoining utility room, while a cellar provides valuable additional storage.
The first floor is particularly impressive, with a generously proportioned principal bedroom that enjoys delightful views over The Chipping. Also on this floor is a comfortable second sitting room, creating a superb secondary reception space, which in turn leads to a further bedroom currently arranged as a home office and a bathroom. On the second floor is an additional bedroom benefiting from exposed beams, and a large bathroom with a cast-iron bath.
Further enhancing the practicality of the house is a useful cellar, accessed from the reception hall, offering excellent ancillary storage.

Garden:
Enclosed by traditional Cotswold stone walls, the beautifully landscaped garden enjoys a wonderful sense of privacy and seclusion, creating a peaceful retreat from the bustle of daily life. Thoughtfully designed, it features a charming mix of gravelled pathways, areas of lawn and deeply planted borders brimming with mature roses, fragrant lavender and an abundance of established shrubs. At its heart, a delightful terrace sits beneath the canopy of an apple tree, providing a sheltered, picturesque setting for al fresco dining, summer entertaining, or simply relaxing with a morning coffee. There is also a gate for side access by the church, for coming around the back or taking the bins out, plus a rail-fenced area for storage, currently used as a wood store and for bikes.
It is a wonderfully inviting outdoor space, perfectly suited to both peaceful enjoyment and social gatherings throughout the seasons.
