An exceptional Cotswold house, set on the edge of the village with a lovely rural aspect Arlington Farmhouse is a splendid former farmhouse which is tucked away on the edge of a charming Cotswold Village. The property which dates back to the late 17th Century is Grade II Listed and is capable of providing self contained accommodation if required. In recent years the current owners have considerably improved the property, both inside and out. The house now provides exceptionally well presented family accommodation which is appointed to a high standard throughout. However, the original charm and character remains and is particularly evident in the drawing room with its vaulted ceiling and in the dining room where there is an impressive Inglenook Fireplace. There is also a third reception room with a log burning stove and which opens directly into the garden. The kitchen/breakfast room is particularly well fitted with a good range of appliances, glass fronted cupboards and a four oven AGA. On the ground floor there are also two cloakrooms and a utility room. In addition there is direct access into the cottage, which includes two reception rooms and a kitchen. On the first floor there is a superb main suite which includes a luxury bathroom and a very generous dressing room, which was previously used as a bedroom. Approached through a laundry room further bedrooms and two bathrooms (one being ensuite). These rooms could form part of the cottage and can be approached directly off the rear hall. Two further bedrooms are found on the second floor making five in total and excluding the dressing room. Externally, a gated driveway leads up to a wide gravelled parking area in front of the house. A gateway leads through to the walled garden which is a particular feature of the property and is well stocked with a variety of shrubs, as well as flower and herbaceous borders. There is also a flagstone terrace adjacent to the cottage as well as a former outside office which has now been converted to a party barn with exposed timbers, stone fireplace and stove. Next to it is a triple garage with parking to the front and which is approached off a secondary drive. Beyond the garden and shielded by a Cotswold Stone Wall is a small graveyard which is believed to be unconsecrated. View payable Stamp Duty for this property
