Description
An impressive Edwardian property in this wonderful position, just over 8 acres with stunning views over its own lakes, the Cotswold escarpment, and Tyndale Monument.
Kites Nest House is beautifully positioned on the edge of the Cotswold escarpment, benefiting from stunning views over its 8 acres of grounds, beautiful lakes featuring an impressive fountain, and pontoon. Kites Nest House is an exceptional home with an abundance of character and highly versatile accommodation. All rooms are of impressive proportions and impressive ceiling heights. In the principal rooms, there are bathstone fireplaces, new parkette flooring and recently recarpeted throughout. In addition, there is a newly refitted kitchen/breakfast room and a large utility/boot room.
There is a large, detached garage block with a workshop. Above the garage is a large one bedroom flat with a downstairs bathroom and utility area.
Behind the garage is a large work barn with a separate access and a large amount of concrete hard standing.
Gardens and Grounds:
The gardens are beautifully presented with a mix of formality and informality and are positioned to the south, predominantly laid to lawn with herbaceous borders. A large terrace wraps around the property, along with a large pergola, ornamental pond, hedging and mature trees.
Beyond the main gardens, the land sweeps down to two beautifully managed lakes; one has a large pontoon and an impressive fountain. The lakes, often visited by swans, Canada geese and other wonderful wildlife, are ideal for wild swimming. The grounds have plenty of space for a celebratory marquee or other potential uses.
There is an additional gated access to the bottom of the property for further access, and it has the potential to be turned into an additional sweeping drive.
