Property description & features

  • Tenure: Freehold
A charming and characterful detached home nestled within an acre plot with a double garage and beautiful accommodation in the heart of this quintessential village.

Description
Manor Cross is a charming village house nestled within its own glorious plot of one acre. It is built principally in Cotswold stone in tribute to its heritage as a former barn and has been designed entirely for its mature grounds and the broader country scene that this area is so well known for. Standing at over 3600 Sq ft, it is deceptively spacious with immaculate and quality accommodation that is both practical and planned to use the space in the most family conducive way.

Both externally and internally this is a home of great character. The entrance hall is a feature in itself as the owners use it as a dining room to one side with a door that opens into a home office with a range of floor to ceiling cabinetry. It is also central to the layout, joining each reception room to create living spaces that flow with ease. The sitting room is a beautiful space with double doors that open directly to an outside patio and gardens. A fireplace provides a focal point. Across the other side of the house, is the kitchen/breakfast and family room. This expansive space is open plan in style following an angular shape with ceiling lanterns and bi fold doors that open to a courtyard and further to the gardens. The kitchen itself is fitted with a range of units, integrated appliances, a gas single Aga and a traditional double Aga, additionally is a walk in pantry. A utility room and cloakroom completely the accommodation on this floor.
The first floor is charming and the bedrooms typify the barn conversion with beamed ceilings to some of the rooms. The principal suite has a walk in a wardrobe, with a range of fitted cabinetry, and an en suite bathroom, it occupies a large proportion of this floor. There is a guest bedroom with an en suite bathroom whilst two bedrooms share a family bathroom.

Outside
A driveway sweeps in front of the house and to the side, leading to the double garage and a further single garage. The gardens at Manor Cross are beautiful and are a fundamental element to the overall feel of the house. Extending to a little over one acre, the plot lies predominantly to the side of the house and is the most peaceful private space offering mature trees, flower boarders, shrubbery and an expanse of level lawn that overlooks open countryside. A summer house sits within the grounds and various terraces provide an ideal spot to dine al fresco.

The Double Garage
Above the garage, with a set of steps to the side, is a room that would make an ideal home office or gym.

Situation
Elkstone is a picturesque Cotswold village that sits in the heart of the Cotswold Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. It is a working village with life centering around a 12th Century church and a village hall. In the last few years an exceptional Destination Hub has been built to the edge of the village, Elkstone Studios, which has been developed with the vision of food, wellness and work.
