Countryside retreats don’t come more charming than this Cotswold stone cottage nestled away in Kingham, one of the Cotswold’s prettiest villages. Inside, you’ll find elegant living spaces, with bifold doors opening out onto a suntrap terrace and established private garden. A flagstone, open-plan kitchen with an Aga cooker at its heart - there’s a conventional oven as well if you’d rather keep things simple. And upstairs, spacious bedrooms spread out over two floors to give a real sense of space. And amidst all this charm, there are a few unexpected surprises too. Downstairs, you’ll find a cosy basement room - perfect for movie time, with games and toys that kids (and big kids will love). And things keep on getting better outside in the shared grounds of this home, with a stunning shared indoor pool, a Hamman, and five acres of manicured gardens complete with a Moorish-inspired pavilion garden. Now, you didn’t expect that in the Cotswolds, did you? When it's time to venture further afield, you’ll be surprised just how central you are. The village centre with its award-winning gastropubs is just a five-minute walk away, and there's a renowned spa and farm shop just a five-minute drive away. You really couldn’t wish for more.
