Description

A BEAUTIFULLY POSITIONED DETACHED COTSWOLD HOME WITH GLORIOUS GARDENS TOTALLING JUST OVER ONE ACRE AND FAR-REACHING COUNTRYSIDE VIEWS, QUIETLY TUCKED AWAY IN THE HEART OF THIS SOUGHT-AFTER VILLAGE.

The property was built in the mid-1970s, an attractive detached Cotswold house occupying an exceptional position within the village, enjoying privacy and far-reaching views over the surrounding countryside.The house offers well-balanced and versatile accommodation arranged over two floors. The ground floor is centred around a welcoming entrance hall, with a generous sitting room featuring an attractive fireplace and views over the gardens. A separate snug provides a more informal living space, while a study offers an ideal work-from-home environment. The dining room connects conveniently to the kitchen, which is well-appointed and complemented by a utility room and rear porch. Upstairs, the principal bedroom benefits from an ensuite shower room and lovely views. There are three further double bedrooms served by two bathrooms and separate WC, providing versatile accommodation for family and guests. The property would now benefit from a degree of updating, offering an incoming purchaser an excellent opportunity to modernise and personalise a well-proportioned village house in a prime setting.

Court Orchard is approached via a shared drive leading through an attractive coach house archway, opening onto a sweeping private driveway with ample parking and access to a detached double garage. The gardens are a particular feature of the property, being beautifully laid out and predominantly laid to lawn, interspersed with mature trees, flowering borders and spring bulbs. A charming summer house sits within the grounds, providing a peaceful retreat. The elevated position affords wonderful views across the village and surrounding Cotswold countryside, creating a sense of space and tranquillity, while still being within easy reach of local amenities.

Blockley is a charming village nestling in a fold of the Cotswold Hills midway between Chipping Campden and Moreton-in-Marsh.

Shopping and other facilities are to be found in the local market towns of Chipping Campden and Moreton-in-Marsh whilst the main shopping and cultural centres for the area are Stratford-upon-Avon, Cheltenham and Oxford.

Northwick Mill lies just outside the village and enjoys lovely views over the mill stream and open countryside.
