Positioned at the forefront of this country cul-de-sac location, enjoying good views towards countryside and the property's sumptuous gardens from the many dormer windows. This detached two-storey, four bedroom village retreat was built by a local firm of builders for their own occupation in 1998 and this is only the second time in the property's history that it has been on the open market.
The property promotes a distinctly cottage feel with a stone flagged entrance hall, an inglenook fireplace with a homely woodburning stove in the living room and an open-plan kitchen and dining area. There are three double French doors opening on to the stunning enclosed south-facing rear garden tended with care over many years by the present owner to whom the garden pays the highest compliment.
At first floor level there are four bedrooms, a family bathroom and a master suite over the double garage with a four piece ensuite bathroom and its own dressing room.
The property is warmed with propane gas fired central heating, electric underfloor heating in the kitchen and dining room and the property has 10 solar panels on the easterly facing roof which can not be seen from the house.
Church Farm Lane is positioned within the conservation area of Aston Magna, midway between the market towns of Shipston-on-Stour and Moreton-in-Marsh with the latter having its own railway station with links to Oxford and London Paddington. The village is within the catchment area for Ofsted outstanding Chipping Campden Secondary School and Blockley Primary School.
