Description
A detached five bedroom period home with great potential set in a west facing plot of 1.4 acres that includes a swimming pool, enjoys stunning views and has direct access to the hills behind.
Set at the end of a long driveway, overlooking its plot and enjoying the distant views beyond, The Wynyards is a charming period cottage that has been in the same ownership since 1983.
Set part way up the hill, the property enjoys direct access to footpaths that lead all the way up to Nottingham Hill, Cleeve Hill and the Cotswold Way.
The house and gardens face west so enjoy great natural light, stunning sunsets and views from Cheltenham Racecourse across the Severn Vale to Wales in the distance on a clear day.
Thought to date to around the 1600's, the cottage has seen various extensions, now extending to 2,131 square feet arranged over two floors. The accommodation briefly comprises a conservatory, kitchen/breakfast room, dining room, sitting room, hallway, WC and stores. On the first floor, there are five bedrooms and four bath/shower rooms.
Stepping out from the kitchen, the garden terrace includes the swimming pool which is heated (oil fired heating) and is one of the best places on the site to enjoy the spectacular view. A large versatile timber frame outbuilding offers further potential. The rectangular plot extends to 1.4 acres in total most of which flanks the long driveway that runs down to Butts Lane at the bottom.
Services: Oil fired central heating. Private waste. Mains water and electricity are connected.
Whilst the house is not historically listed, it does sit within the Cotswold Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and is effectively within a Conservation Area. No public rights of way cross the property.
