A beautiful country home, with a barn, a one bedroom guest annex, heated outside swimming pool and 15 acres of glorious land close to Winchcombes centre and only a short, easy drive from Cheltenham.

Situation
Private grounds, countryside and views are the background to this superb family home which occupies c15 acres of its own land and gardens. Homes in this valley between Winchcombe and Cleeve Hill rarely come to the market, the idyllic semi-rural setting yet easy accessibility into the town of Winchcombe and the larger town of Cheltenham, in addition to some of the best walking countryside in the Cotswold's, make this an extremely special place in which to live.

The property itself has a classic mellow stone facade, befitting its neighborly Cotswold architecture and whilst more modern in age it is full of characterful detail and charm. The orientation of the house allows for full views over its private grounds as it sits at the foot of its own 15 acres.

At over 3230 Sq Ft, the internal accommodation is both practical and traditional, the superb barn/gym, workshop, double garage, studio annex, swimming pool and grounds make it a true family country residence. Over the many years, the current vendors have made Cockbury Willows into the most inviting and comfortable of homes with an immaculate and stylish finish.

Entrance is via an oak and glazed framed porch and into the impressive hallway which introduces the reception space via a few stairs. The study is set to the front with a boxed bay window and opposite is a boot room adjacent to a utility room. There is a useful bedroom with double doors out to a terrace and gardens with a shower room almost opposite, whilst currently used as a guest bedroom this would also make for a lovely reception room, should a prospective owner wish. To the rear of the house is a spectacular, partially open plan space which contains an informal sitting room/snug, a kitchen/dining and family room which opens to a spectacular sitting room with a fireplace and doors leading to outside. Each of these rooms enjoy access to and views of the grounds. The kitchen itself is beautifully finished with bespoke country units, high end integrated appliances and a large breakfast island. From here, doors open to the sun room with three access points connecting the internals to outside by way of a large decked area offering excellent views. This room is a feature in itself, an Oak framed addition which is fully glazed with a vaulted ceiling allowing for full views of the surrounding land.

On the first floor are three excellent bedrooms. Due to the configuration, it would be very easy to create a fourth bedroom from the generous landing. The master suite is beautiful, a large room with built in cabinetry, an en suite shower room and stunning views. Two bedrooms are serviced by a modern family bathroom. There is ample storage throughout this floor.

Outbuildings, Annex and Garaging.
Within the plot is detached garaging, suitable for two cars and a further detached building offering an extensive barn, which is ideal for a home gymnasium, machinery or classic cars in addition to a workshop. Adjacent is a wonderful studio annex, contemporary in style, with an open plan living/bedroom area with kitchenette and an adjoining shower room. This stunning space opens to outside by way of Crittal doors, enjoying an uninterrupted view of the grounds. The annex offers ample possibilities to be utilised as a prospective owner requires, ideal for guest accommodation, for a live in relative/staff quarters or as a home office, away from the main house.

Of worthy note, subject to the necessary planning, the barn could be a separate dwelling, should a prospective owner wish to separate it from the main house and gardens.

The Grounds and Gardens:
Cockbury Willows is positioned off a discreet and private entrance, as the road drops down from Cleeve Hill into the valley towards Winchcombe. Electric gates provide a grand entry to the extensive driveway opening to the gardens and acreage and to the house and outbuildings. The grounds are stunning, providing a beautiful and relaxed setting for this country home they comprise areas of formal lawn, acreage and paddocks extending to a total of c15 acres. The large sun terrace, with the heated outside swimming pool, is a seamless addition to the interiors, when the doors open this entire inside/outside space merges, ideal for entertaining and a perfect spot to take in the views. The whole plot is enclosed by well-established boundaries ensuring privacy at many points and the setting is an unanticipated expanse, however it is the open views of uninterrupted countryside, that makes a magnificent position.


Situation
Over the years Winchcombe has established itself as one of the most sought after Cotswold towns to live in. Its status has been retained, in part, by the growth of the amenities on offer in the cultural town centre, offering the discerning buyer a wonderful choice of coffee shops, boutiques and restaurant including a Michelin Star restaurant, in addition to some beautiful Cotswold pubs, a doctor’s surgery, bakery, well stocked shops and a florist to name but a few. Positioned in An Area of Outstanding Natural beauty it is noted for its rolling hills and open countryside, which makes for some of the best walking and riding landscape. Whilst beautifully semi-rural, it is extremely accessible with the larger centre of Cheltenham a mere six miles away making the commute into the fashionable and cultural town centre, in addition to the exceptional schools including The Cheltenham Ladies’ College, Cheltenham College, Dean Close and St Edwards, extremely quick and easy. For the commuter, transport links are strong with regular bus routes between Cheltenham and Winchcombe, easy access to the M5 Tewkesbury and M4 corridor via the A40/A419. There are direct trains form Cheltenham to London and from Kingham, which can be reached by car in 20 minutes
