Long Newnton Road, Tetbury, GL8

Winter Brook is a superb individual chain free detached property in a lovely streamside location in Tetbury. This sought after location, within the conservation area of Tetbury, allows for easy access to the shops and amenities of this historic market town, with country walks on the doorstep. The current owner bought this very special site some years ago, and immediately had a vision of a building a unique, energy efficient home here. Some years later they purchased three quarters of an acre of adjoining woodland, and this is now being sold with the house, offering prospective buyers a unique opportunity to buy a newly built home with parking and a waterside garden with the additional benefit of your own wood, which is inhabited with wildlife and some very interesting historic Grade II listed folly buildings. The property is built from natural Cotswold stone under a stone tiled roof. The build process has been a real labour of love, with spacious accommodation arranged over two floors. A welcoming entrance hall greets you, with a well appointed 16' kitchen/breakfast room on the left. A 20' sitting room with bi-fold doors that open onto the garden is on the right of the hall, with a dining room behind this. There is also a cloakroom/WC on this floor. A staircase leads up from the hall to a large, airy landing. A principal bedroom with en suite shower room, family bathroom and two further double bedrooms are on this on this floor. The floor space on offer here is larger than many four bedroom houses. Carefully considered, high quality fittings and tasteful décor have been used throughout the house, complementing this unique property, and the large plot means that there is plenty of space to extend the property in the future should a buyer choose to.

The landscaping at Winter Brook is currently (19/9/24) underway, and the lead image used is a CGI augmented picture to give an indication of how this space will be finished. There will be a gated gravelled drive with space to park several vehicles, and a level lawn area. In addition, the property owns 0.76 acres of woodland, which is found just over the stream that borders the garden. This lovely woodland area is a real hotbed for wildlife, and the eventual buyer will have the joy of watching deer, foxes and other animals wandering through the trees. Unusually, the woodland includes two charming Grade II listed folly buildings, two unusual stone wall 'plunge pools' that are filled with water in the winter months, and a stone lined Artesian well. There is also an area of open land at the edge of the wood within the title. This additional  woodland area makes an already attractive property entirely unique, and a real opportunity for one lucky buyer.

The historic, thriving Cotswold town of Tetbury boasts an extensive range of independent shops and boutiques alongside numerous restaurants, cafes, hotels and antiques shops. There are two supermarkets, a post office, doctor and dentist surgeries, a hospital plus well regarded primary and secondary schools. In addition to these there are several other state, independent and private educational options within easy reach. Close by are the royal estates of Highgrove and Gatcombe Park along with the beautiful and renowned Westonbirt Arboretum. Tetbury’s geographic position makes it well located for both M4 and M5 motorways offering easy access to Cheltenham (23 miles), Bath (27 miles) and Bristol (30 miles) with the local towns of Cirencester (10 miles) and Nailsworth (7 miles) nearby. Railway stations at Stroud (11 miles) and Kemble (8 miles) provide main line services to Gloucester, Swindon and London Paddington.

Agent Note
The owner is retaining a parcel of land to the right of the drive and will apply for planning permission for a garage here. This could be sold to the buyer of the house if an agreeable price can be negotiated. Two other properties have a right of access over the drive leading down to the property. The lead image used is CGI augmented to give an indication of how the garden and drive will be finished, but this may vary from this design.
