Bourton-On-The-Hill, Moreton-in-Marsh, Gloucestershire, GL56

High Gables is a substantial Cotswold stone property located in an elevated position with views across the adjoining countryside. The property has been extended over recent years to provide light and spacious accommodation. The living space is vast with a large kitchen/breakfast room with views to the front and over the garden to the rear. The kitchen benefits from a range of units and an Aga. The stone tiled floor runs through the kitchen breakfast room and beyond through the snug, entrance hall and utility room. The drawing room is generous and overlooks the rear garden and offers a beautiful parquet floor, stone mullion windows and open fire. On the first floor the modern extension offers a spectacular galleried dining area and sitting room with vaulted ceiling and exposed timbers. This room has been designed for entertaining friends and family. The remainder of the first floor offers four bedrooms in all, two with en-suite and a further family bathroom. The second floor has a further two bedrooms and bathroom. The kitchen and bathrooms are in need of sympathetic updating. The property is approached over a gravel drive and through an archway in the car barn. The garden to the front is mainly laid to lawn with views over fields to the front. The garden extends around the side of the property with a large dining area and beyond into the rear garden which offers herbaceous borders, mature trees, pond and a summer house. There is also access at the rear of the property. Further accommodation could be created in the car barn. The building currently offers five car ports with a large storage room above. The loft space could be converted into a large office or even an annexe subject to the necessary consents. Bourton-on-the-Hill is situated some 2 miles to the west of the North Cotswold market town of Moreton-in-Marsh on the slopes of the Cotswold escarpment. The village comprises an attractive collection of mainly period Cotswold stone houses and cottages with a fine parish church. Both Moreton-in-Marsh and Chipping Campden offer a good range of specialist and every day facilities, whilst the main shopping and cultural centres for the region are Stratford-upon-Avon, Oxford and Cheltenham. These are all accessible by main road and there are good communications to London and the West Midlands via the M40 or the main line railway station at Moreton-in-Marsh.
