Boxwood Cottage is located in a quiet traffic free spot of South Cerney in a pedestrian section of School Lane overlooking the mill stream of the river Churn. The Grade II listed semi detached cottage has now been granted planning permission to sympathetically extend and renovate throughout to create the perfect country cottage. Plans can be viewed on the Cotswold District Council Planning Portal with ref 02/02433/ful.
To the front of the cottage is a designated parking spot for one small car whilst there is a garage to the rear which has right of access across the neighbouring shared gravel driveway. As you step through the low timber cottage door you catch a glimpse of the character features within and the stairs to the first floor straight ahead.
To your left is the charming dual aspect living room with windows set into the thick stone walls with deep sills. A large inglenook fireplace is an incredible focal point to the room as is fitted with a wood burning stove. Through from here you will find the dining room which, in turn opens up the kitchen. Here there are fitted cupboards and work tops, electric hob and oven, fridge/freezer and plumbing for a washing machine and dishwasher. The rear of the cottage has been extended with a boot room and downstairs WC before your reach the cedar wood roof conservatory with a lovely outlook to the secluded south facing garden.
Upstairs off the landing is a single bedroom on your right with a basin and cupboard housing the hot water tank. The master bedroom suite is a fabulous size with exposed beams, dual aspect and two cupboards set either side of the curved chimney breast. The bathroom is ensuite with oversized bath with shower, basin, WC and a window to the front.
Outside the south facing rear garden is wonderfully secluded with hedges on both sides, a patio area, lawn and selection of beds. There is a garden shed at the end and rear access to the single garage which has light and power with the potential to create loft storage. From the front, the garage is accessed across a driveway which is owned by the neighbouring properties and The Paddy has legal right of way.
South Cerney has a host of fantastic local amenities including three pubs, Indian restaurant, coffee shop & deli, fish & chip shop, chemist, doctor surgery, village hall, two churches, Anne Edwards primary school, pre-school playgroup, a One Stop and a Co-Op. As well as the local village school there are a number of secondary schools in and around Cirencester along with great private and grammar schools. That's in addition to being in the heart of the Cotswold Water Park with countless lakes for all varieties of water sports with water skiing and waterside dining at the Lakeside Brasserie.
Commuting connections to London are a breeze with direct trains to Paddington from Kemble (78 mins) 4 miles away or Swindon (58 mins) 12.5 miles away. The A419 gives access to the M4 Jct 15 (16 miles) whilst Cirencester is only 4 miles and Cheltenham 20 miles away.
