The property

Court House, a locally important property, is steeped in history as it is believed to date back to the early/mid-1650s it has been transformed through an amalgam of uses including a courthouse, a manor house, a public house and now a fantastic modern family home boasting substantial well-presented and proportioned accommodation with modern style mixed with traditional grandeur.

Having been extended and restored within the current ownership, this residence is a perfect combination of ‘old and new’. A plethora of period character features are enjoyed throughout and these blend beautifully with the fashionable décor, fixtures and fittings. This winning combination creates a very special lifestyle.

The heart of the home is a bespoke designed kitchen/breakfast room with its large central island being the main focal point. A variety of built-in appliances allow you to create and cook up tasty concoctions for your family. French doors open out onto a delightful open courtyard perfect for al-fresco dining. From one end of the kitchen/breakfast room, the utility and second cloakroom are located with convenient access from the other end into the stunning formal dining with underfloor heating under a stone floor, as per the kitchen, in addition to a wood burner set with an inglenook fireplace. Whether you enjoy dinner parties or noisy Sunday lunches with the family this room offers you the perfect foundation for a special event.

The drawing room, possibly lying within the oldest origins of the house, is a magnificent room with a Cotswold stone fireplace with a wood burning stove along with French doors out onto the rear patio and the main staircase rising to the first floor. A door leads into the Sitting Room with a further Cotswold stone fireplace and access up the second original stone spiral staircase opening up into a stunning dual aspect Bedroom with en-suite.

On the first level the main bedroom suite with it’s well-appointed ensuite can be discovered along with three further large double rooms all with individual ensuites. The attic bedroom is one of the largest rooms which boasts another bespoke ensuite.

A paramount asset to Court House is the union between the location and the open valley views, as they provide both peace and privacy in a village setting with a community spirit.

Outside

Within a traditional Cotswold stone wall, a pair of impressive electrically operated gates open onto the private drive which sweep in front of the house onto the parking area and leads to the double garage. From here steps lead to the side and rear gardens where you’ll find a fantastic, detached studio/home office at the top of the grounds. At the rear of the house is an enclosed garden with a naturally planted screen made up from a beech hedge and is mainly laid to lawn with raised flowers beds and a stunning patio terrace for BBQs and relaxing. A five-bar gate leads from the gardens onto the field which wraps itself around the house. It gently slopes up to the top of the hill, down to the stream and backs onto neighbouring farmland. A separate level paddock is located closer to the main house and is currently open to the rear garden. It is enclosed with Cotswold stone drystone walling and attractive plants.
