Set in a peaceful village location within a short commute of Cheltenham, Gloucester and Tewkesbury, Brickhouse Farm is a beautiful 18th Century family home accompanied by a range of traditional outbuildings, grounds and paddocks that extend to nearly 11 acres.

Well proportioned and beautifully presented, the principal accommodation is arranged over three floors and extends to approximately 4,669 square feet (to include the cellar). The house has been tastefully modernised throughout but still retains a charming farmhouse look and feel with features such as the Aga and a number fireplaces in multiple reception rooms and bedrooms adding to the character of the building. High ceilings and lots of windows mean the house is naturally very light also enjoying views to the gardens and fields surrounding.

In the original part of the house, the ground floor comprises three large reception rooms and a kitchen arranged around a central dividing hallway that runs straight through to the terrace at the rear. A further sitting room, utility room and cloakroom complete what is a very versatile ground floor living space.

In addition to a flexible mezzanine room above the sitting room, in the main body of the house there are three bedrooms and a bathroom on the first floor and a further three bedrooms and a shower room on the second floor. All of the bedrooms are comfortable double rooms and the bathrooms well appointed and equally well-proportioned.

At the back of the house, accessed via the kitchen and hallway, there is a stunning raised level terrace which enjoys views over the duck pond, further landscaped terraces and the gardens. The terrace provides plenty of space for entertaining as well as a view to the fields beyond.

Gated from the lane, the pretty courtyard in front of the house offers plenty of parking as well as access to the stable yard (3-4 stables), garaging (with gym over) and outbuildings. Further away on the northern side of the house and garden, there is is another useful brick built building comprising 2 stables as well as a tractor barn. All of the outbuildings have obvious conversion opportunities subject to the usual planning and Listed Building consents.

The paddocks are set back behind the house and garden and in the winter months, do have a tendency to flood however, the house (excluding the cellar), the outbuildings and the access to the property have never been impacted by flooding.

NO ONWARD CHAIN.

Services: Mains water and electricity. Private waste. Oil fired central heating.

Agent's note: A footpath does cross the field behind the house as well as the field on the other side of the lane. For the exact route, please check Gloucestershire County Council's interactive rights of way map.
