Thought to date back to the 1800s, this former shop has been lovingly transformed into a charming home, rich with period features that tell tales of its storied past. Its Cotswold stone exterior, aged to perfection, hints at the timeless beauty within, a sanctuary that has seamlessly blended the old with the new.
Stepping through the front door, you're greeted by a warm embrace of natural light that dances across the flagstone floor of the newly finished kitchen. Large windows, reminiscent of the cottage's past life, flood the space with daylight, illuminating the grey cabinetry and pristine quartz countertops. Here, modern convenience meets historic charm, with integrated appliances and a practical breakfast bar adding a touch of contemporary refinement. A stable door opens onto the courtyard garden, inviting the outdoors in and providing a serene spot for morning coffee or alfresco dining.
The living room, just a few steps away, is the epitome of cozy comfort. An exposed stone wall, artfully lit, serves as a backdrop to the brick fireplace with its wood burner, framed by a rustic wood hearth. This space is perfect for those chilly Cotswold evenings, where the warmth of the fire and the rustic charm of the room create a haven of relaxation. As you take in the ambiance, the spiral stone staircase catches your eye, leading you on a journey to the upper floor.
Upstairs you will find yourself in a double bedroom that exudes rustic elegance. The apex ceiling and exposed beams add a sense of grandeur, while the velux windows offer framed views over the nearby church. The new carpet underfoot provides a soft contrast to the painted exposed brick pillars, creating a space that is both inviting and serene. An archway leads to a cleverly designed wardrobe area, providing ample storage without compromising on style.
The bathroom continues the theme of refined luxury, a sanctuary of relaxation featuring a luxurious roll-top bath and shower, painted in a rich plum hue that contrasts beautifully with the exposed roof beams above.
Outside, the courtyard garden awaits. With its brick-built storeroom and ample space for alfresco dining, it's the perfect setting for summer gatherings. A wooden studio adds versatility to the outdoor space, whether you envision it as a home office, a music room, a yoga studio, or an artist's retreat. The garden's charm is further enhanced by its access onto Bell Bank, a road famous for its appearances in the TV show "Father Brown." Here, additional parking is conveniently available.
Blockley itself is a gem within the Cotswolds, largely unspoilt and bursting with charm. The village is an area of outstanding natural beauty, offering endless opportunities for walks and outdoor adventures and is located only a 9 minute drive from both Chipping Campden and Broadway. The cottage has previously been used as a holiday let business and would suit anyone looking for a holiday home/buisness making it a perfect Cotswold bolt hole. The village boasts a local store and café, which transforms into a fine dining restaurant several evenings a week, two welcoming public houses, and a primary school.
Churchside Cottage is more than just a home; it's a piece of history, lovingly updated to offer all the comforts of modern living while retaining its enchanting character. Here, every detail has been carefully considered, every space thoughtfully designed, creating a harmonious blend of past and present that makes this cottage truly unique
