Description
Set in a lovely position within the heart of the village, 4 High Trees is a spacious, detached family home positioned in a good sized plot. Built in the last 20 years from mellow stone, the house was designed to typify the classic Cotswold village scene for which this area is so highly regarded for. Whilst more modern in finish, there is a feel of character that flows throughout the two floors of well-presented accommodation.
Spanning over 1600 Sq Ft, the accommodation is practical with balanced bedroom to living space. A hallway introduces the reception rooms, with a study to the front of the house, overlooking the street scene and a generous sitting room with doors opening to the terrace and gardens to the rear. As with any of the best family homes, the kitchen/dining and family room have been designed in open plan style. The kitchen itself is positioned to the front of the house, well-appointed with a range of modern units and integrated appliances opening to the dining room with doors out to the garden. This is a lovely space for family life and entertaining. A utility room is accessed from the kitchen and a cloakroom can be found off the entrance hall.
The four bedrooms on the first floor are well designed, the master suite has an en suite shower room and a guest room, to the rear, also has an en suite. The two remaining bedrooms share a modern family bathroom.
Outside
Much of the charm of High Trees is due to its lovely position, enclosed by private gardens to the rear. Generous in size, the garden has been designed to be low maintenance, yet a place to sit, play and enjoy. The double garage is situated to the rear of the property along with off road parking.
