Description The Old Rectory is a handsome Cotswold stone house which dates from c.1865 with later additions. The present owners have spent a great deal of time and care restoring and refurbishing The Old Rectory to an exceptionally high standard whilst retaining many original features. The Old Rectory is constructed of Cotswold stone under a Cotswold tile roof. Many of the windows are large stone mullions with sliding sash windows. Arranged on three floors, the house provides excellent, wellproportioned accommodation with high ceilinged rooms. Standing in a commanding position, lying behind Cotswold stone walls, the house is privately set within its own delightful gardens and grounds amounting to just under 6 acres. The house is approached through a pair of remotely operated electric gates onto a large gravelled drive. To the rear of the house and with separate access there is a 2 bedroom cottage providing useful ancillary accommodation.
Situation & Location Westonbirt is a charming village situated in the south of the Cotswolds and within a Conservation Area. In addition to the school and hotel, there is also the National Arboretum directly opposite the house with numerous walks and some 15,000 specimen trees set in c600 acres. Situated a few miles from The Old Rectory is the market town of Tetbury, with significant elements unchanged since the 17th Century. It has in recent years seen many improvements and now offers an excellent range of shops including specialist boutiques and delicatessens. There is a good choice of restaurants, cafes, pubs and hotels and the town is renowned internationally for its wide range of shops serving the antiques market.
Amenities Tetbury lies within the triangle of the M4 and the M5, which provides good access to Bath and Bristol to the south and west, Cheltenham to the north and Swindon and London to the east. The Roman town of Cirencester provides more extensive shopping while cultural facilities are available at Cheltenham, Bath and Bristol, all of which are within easy reach. The property is ideally located in the area, with access to Junction 16 of the M4 for Heathrow and London to the east and Junction 18 for Bristol and the West Country. The M5 for Birmingham and the Midlands can be accessed at Junction 13 or 11A. There is a main line railway station at Kemble with a regular service to London in about 75 minutes. Alternatively, from Chippenham, the journey time is about 60 minutes. There are Golf courses at Westonbirt, Castle Combe and Minchinhampton; racing at Bath, Cheltenham and Chepstow and theatres at Cheltenham and Bath. The Cotswold Water Park, near Cirencester, offers a wide range of water sports. Westonbirt Arboretum is immediately adjacent to The Old Rectory and there is polo at Beaufort Polo Club and Cirencester Park. Hunting is with the Beaufort. The surrounding countryside can be enjoyed via a good network of footpaths and bridleways. The area is also well served by excellent state and independent primary and secondary schools at Westonbirt, Malmesbury, Minchinhampton (Beaudesert Preparatory School), Stroud, Cheltenham and Bath.
Accommodation The ground floor offers generous and elegant reception rooms comprising an Entrance Hall with large staircase rising to first floor landing. An impressive Drawing Room and Dining Room with large stone mullion windows overlooking the gardens. The Kitchen/Breakfast Room with bespoke Mark Wilkinson designed units and a four oven Oil fired Aga is a superb space for relaxed family living while the Snug provides a more formal space for entertaining. There is a Study, Boot Room/Utility Room and Cloakroom all located on the ground floor. On the first floor a wide landing leads to an impressive Master Bedroom suite with stunning views over the gardens and a large stylish en-suite Bathroom and Dressing Room. A further four Double Bedrooms (1 en-suite) lead off the landing as well as an airing cupboard and family Shower Room. The second floor lends itself to three further double bedrooms a single bedroom as well as attic storage.
