Description
An attractive five bedroom family home with extensive gardens, stables, paddocks and potential for ancillary accommodation. In all about 9.2 acres.
Copper Beech is a handsome and spacious family home set within its plot and providing a delightful country retreat in a convenient and easily accessible location between Cirencester and Lechlade. Dating from the 1930's, the house has been extensively and sympathetically extended to create a light and pleasingly symmetrical property with a sociable layout, accessed via an impressive, vaulted reception hall. Original details, including fireplaces, picture rails, skirting boards and parquet flooring, have been retained, and the gardens have been designed to follow the sun, with a south facing dining terrace, west facing Mediterranean garden and enchanting meadow area with a large swimming pond to attract wildlife. The substantial orchard and vegetable garden provide a wonderful opportunity for keen gardeners, with the stables and paddocks ideal for equestrian pursuits. The roof is fitted with solar panels, which heat the water in summer months and supplement the electricity supply.
Planning permission has been granted for an additional array of panels in one of the fields, which would add to the opportunity to be largely self-sufficient. There is lapsed planning permission to create a single storey boot room adjacent to the kitchen, and the original detached garage and tack room have potential to create ancillary accommodation, subject to planning permission.
