Welcome to Box Farm, a wonderful five/six bedroom detached, period family home, located in this most sought-after Gloucestershire village, offered for sale with no onward chain and sat within 15 acres of private grounds, combining paddocks and woodland and with a suite of stables, this makes this property perfect for those with an equestrian interest, particularly with the property being within close proximity to Cleeve Hill common, with its large expanse available for hacking.
Beautifully presented and enjoying circa 4300 square feet of internal space, coupled with beautifully tended formal gardens and an array of outbuildings, Box Farm is a property that we would highly recommend visiting.
Bordering onto Cleeve Hill, the property is accessed via the driveway which in turn leads to the parking area and stable block. Within the parking area, one will find a double garage and attached, open fronted double car port, both benefiting from light and power.
Internally, the property features a central and welcoming entrance hall. With a double height roof space, stairs rising to the upper floor and a herringbone, parquet floor, the entrance sets the tone for all that one will see on their visit to Box Farm. Doors from the hallway lead through to the living room, dining room and to the head of the room, one will find the office, which enjoys a super view over the rear garden.
The living room is lovely and light with windows to three aspects which allow views over the garden, whilst providing a focal point to the room is the open fire, which sits within the chimney breast. Like the entrance, the living room also enjoys a herringbone wood floor. The dining room is a lovely size, again lovely and light with a window to the front elevation and French doors to the rear which allows access onto the garden. Providing a focal point to the room is the inglenook fireplace which within sits a log burning stone. A door to the side of the room leads through to the kitchen/breakfast room.
The kitchen enjoys a wealth of units and benefits from a freestanding range cooker.Furthermore, there is plenty of under unit space to allow for a wealth of under cupboard appliances. French doors from the room lead to the driveway and parking area whilst steps to the head of the room lead up to the sitting room. The sitting room or snug, is a lovely space that enjoys views over the garden. The room enjoys a wealth of fitted cupboard and provides access to the attached barn, which has been converted into what is now the family room.
The family room is an exceptional space. With a double height ceiling and floor to roof line windows, the room enjoys a wealth of natural light. Doors to the front elevation lead out to the parking area and stable block whilst a second set of doors lead through to the formal gardens. The room is completed by a wood floor and stairs that turn and rise to the upper level.
The first-floor landing, accessed by either stairwell located in the entrance hall or family room allows access to all the bedrooms and the three bathrooms. All the bedrooms are double rooms, and all enjoy a view with a majority benefiting from fitted bedroom furniture. Of the bathrooms, one room enjoys both a separate bath and walk in shower whilst the other two are purely shower rooms.
Externally, the grounds that the property enjoys are idyllic. The formal gardens wrap around three sides of the property and feature expansive lawns, seating areas and well stocked flower beds, whilst within the gardens is a fine selection of mature trees and shrubs. From the garden, views over the lower paddocks are enjoyed, where at present one can see horses quietly grazing.
