1 bed detached house for sale

Sandpool Lane, Tarlton, Cirencester, Gloucestershire GL7

A chocolate box thatched cottage with a charming interior and picture-perfect garden.

Description
The property is a classic and utterly charming thatched cottage which is Grade II listed. Detached and dating back to approximately 1624, the cottage is a rare find within this highly sought after village. The rural outlook to the rear provides an atmosphere of peace and tranquility and truly compliments this unique property.

The cottage itself has been improved by the current owners whilst retaining its original character. The period features include the inglenook fireplace, flagstone floor and beamed ceilings. The open-plan ground floor provides a fully fitted kitchen with Bosch and Neff appliances, dining area, and a sitting area with a wood-burning stove within the inglenook fireplace. A concealed stone staircase rises from the sitting area to the double bedroom which benefits from an en-suite bathroom with roll-top bath.

The absorbing nature of the interior is further enhanced by the dry-stone walled garden which has been carefully designed to feature a range of environments. A lawn edged by flowering shrubs gives way to a formal box-lined path with scented plants like rosemary and thyme. A low-walled orchard with apples and plums has mown paths through areas of wild flowers together with a herb garden. The whole garden enjoys an open south-facing panorama over the Bathurst Estate.
To the right of the house is a gravel driveway with parking for multiple cars and access to a stone built outbuilding which offers scope for conversion, subject to the appropriate permissions.

Location
Tarlton is a pretty and sleepy rural hamlet, off the beaten track and surrounded by beautiful countryside. It is conveniently located within two miles of Kemble Station and within a short drive of the historic market towns of Cirencester and Tetbury. Picturesque local villages include Rodmarton, which has a primary school (Ofsted: Good), whilst the many fine pubs include The Bell at Sapperton and The Potting Shed at Crudwell. Cirencester, known as The Capital of the Cotswolds, provides an excellent range of independent shops, boutiques, and restaurants, as well as regular markets and three supermarkets, including Waitrose. The larger regency town of Cheltenham offers a greater choice of shops and is host to many festivals including the Jazz and Literature Festivals.
