A beautifully presented detached residence situated within the sought after village of Hornton which has been well looked after by the current owner and comprises a welcoming split-level entrance hall which provides access to a downstairs wc, a useful study with a window to the front, an excellent sitting room which has an open fire in feature stone surround, a patio door opening out to the side of the property, window to the front and two symmetrically placed arches which lead to a breakfast kitchen with ample work surfaces and space for a table, windows to three elevations and door leading to the utility room which houses the boiler and in turn has a door opening out to the side.
There is a formal dining room which comfortably seats eight, ideal for those who like to entertain whilst French doors lead to a lovely conservatory with windows and French doors overlooking the stunning, large rear garden.
To the first floor, a split level landing leads to a very spacious master bedroom with windows to the front and side providing a good amount of natural light and a door to a four piece ensuite shower room with a window to side. Bedroom two has built in wardrobes and a window which also provides stunning views over the rear garden in addition to two further double bedrooms, both with windows to rear and a principal family bathroom.
One of the nicest features of the property is the rear garden which is of an excellent size with a backdrop of lovely fields, a feature pond, well kept shaped lawns with mature trees including a beautiful weeping willow, whilst to the front of the property, there is a double garage and driveway.
Seller Insight I was initially attracted to the property due to it being a conservation village which benefits from a highly rated primary school. The neighbours either side in fact came here due to the school itself. I love entertaining so I have found the sitting and dining rooms to be of an excellent size and ideal for this, yet there is nothing better than sitting in the conservatory looking over my beautiful rear garden with its lovely pond and the seeing the weeping willow gently swaying in the breeze. * These comments are the personal views of the current owners and are included as an insight into life at the property.

THE COTSWOLDS Defined by the bedrock of Jurassic Limestone, The Cotswolds is an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty spread across six counties in south central England. The name Cotswold is derived from The Old English “Cuda’s – Wold;” Wold is a common suffix meaning Hill, so The Cotswodlds are the hills belonging to Cuda - a goddess from Celtic mythology thought to have been worshiped in the area during the 8th century. During the Middle Ages, the Cotswolds became prosperous from the wool trade with the continent, with much of the money made from wool directed towards building the many handsome Cotswold Stone “wool churches,” many of which are still preserved. Designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in 1966, the area is characterised by attractive quaint villages and small towns built of yellow, gold Cotswold stone, winding roads and rolling hills. Places of interest include, Sudeley Castle, Broadway Tower, Corsham Court and Chedworth Roman Villa, amongst many others. The villages of Bourton-on-the-Water, Broadway and Stowon-the-Wold are amongst those renowned for their charm, attracting visitors from across the world. Cirencester is home to the Royal Agricultural University, the oldest agricultural college in the English speaking world, while Chipping Camden is notable for being the home of the Arts and Crafts movement, founded by William Morris at the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th centuries. Larger urban centres, which border on The Cotswolds include Bath, Cheltenham, Dursley, Gloucester and Stroud
