Description Pope's Cottage is a versatile and spacious family home enjoying privacy and far reaching views. Believed to be constructed in the 1920's the property has now evolved into a good sized home with two distinct first floor sections, indoor swimming pool and flexible ground floor layout. The property consists of mellow rendered elevations under pitched tiled roofs and a mixture of powder coated aluminium and timber framed windows with stone mullioned casements. The first floor features gable end and dormer windows with hooded stone features above. The ground floor accommodation has two points of access via the integral garage and reception hall. The reception hall gives principal access to the large drawing room and kitchen & breakfast room both of which enjoy a southerly aspect and views over the gardens. The drawing room has substantial proportions and features a stone fire place exposed beamwork and French door leading to the terrace area. The recently fitted kitchen enjoys a dual aspect and features granite work surfaces, integrated appliances, and bespoke floor and wall mounted cupboards. Leading from the kitchen is the split level dining room and sitting area with cloakroom. This room enjoys an easterly aspect and there are French doors leading to the indoor swimming pool and changing area. The swimming pool is tiled with corner step access and railed step access. There are further double doors to the far end leading to the gardens. The first floor accommodation has two points of access. The reception hall gives access to a study landing area off which are the large master bedroom with en suite bath room and further double bedroom. The second access is via a further staircase adjacent to the split level sitting room leading to three further bedrooms and shower room. There is also access to this area via the integral garage and utility room. This allows a possible division of the house and the creation of a self contained wing if required.
Pope's Cottage is accessed via a private driveway leading to a parking and turning area, garaging and terrace. The house sits in approximately 1.58 acres of beautiful gardens and enjoys a commanding terrace enjoying far reaching views and stone balustrading surrounding its main perimeter. It is possible to park vehicles on the terraced area but this has a five bar wooden gate and dog proof fencing for its present usage. The gardens and grounds feature a wealth of mature trees, well stocked borders and beds and direct access to the Painswick Beacon via the property's shrubbery which is to the rear of the property. The principal attraction are the elevated southerly views over Painswick valley and the escarpment. Services Mains water, electricity and drainage. Oil fired central heating.
