Vendors' thoughts: "We have loved every moment of living in Daglingworth and it will be very hard to leave. The village is a real community - warm, caring and welcoming, and we have made many good friends here. Our location at the top of Lower End has been such a gift, in so many ways - from the expansive views and the sense of space from our garden to being a stone's throw from the beautiful Bathurst Estate - and we have spent many a happy afternoon with friends, family and children, walking our dogs, cycling along the car-free paths, or enjoying the polo. The area also just seems to get better and better - with the addition of Fire and Flow Coffee, Jolly Nice Farm Shop, The Plough Pub, Elkstone Farmers' Market and Cirencester town itself, all around ten minutes' drive away, or less. 3 Manor Cottages has been home to us for over a decade and has been both a brilliant place to start out life as a married couple, commuting to and from London and having friends for the weekend, to raising our children and feeling truly part of a community."
In a nutshell: A gorgeous Cotswold cottage in a fabulous location!
Property Description
3 Manor Farm Cottages is a beautiful semi-detached Cotswold cottage. The current owners have renovated the cottage beautifully and have been mindful to create a stunning and welcoming home with open plan living spaces, cosy corners and wonderful original features.
The ground floor living space is conveniently laid out for modern living with excellent open plan living spaces bathed in an abundance of natural light.
The open plan kitchen/ dining/ family room is undoubtedly the heart of the house and a fabulous room in which to entertain family and friends and works superbly for everyday living. The kitchen is well equipped with modern appliances and an elegant cream Everhot Cooker which adds extra warmth in the colder months and there is plenty of worktop and storage space. French doors lead from the dining area to the terrace allowing for indoor/outdoor living in the summer.
The sitting room is a wonderful room in which to relax and unwind after a long country walk exploring the Cotswolds. The wood burner makes this a lovely cosy room in the winter.
The utility room keeps the piles of washing out of sight and is perfect for muddy wellies! There is also a downstairs cloakroom.
The first floor comprises the master bedroom, two further bedrooms and a family bathroom. All the rooms have delightful views over the neighbouring countryside and are bathed in an abundance of natural light.
The annex, built of Cotswold stone and part timber clad, provides excellent ancillary accommodation and comprises a bedroom with a bathroom. Careful thought has been put into creating this comfortable and well-proportioned accommodation which can also be used as a home office.
Outside, the garden is a haven of peace and tranquility and is predominantly laid to lawn, surrounded by hedging and a Cotswold stone wall. The vegetable garden is ideal for the garden and cook enthusiast and various ‘rooms’ give different spots in which to enjoy the garden and its setting. The terrace offers exceptional views over the Cotswold countryside and is the ideal spot for sundowners in the warmer months.
