Situation and Description Individual detached two-storey dwelling providing substantial accommodation of around 2,165ft² for modernisation with potential to develop and create a fantastic family-sized home. The property enjoys a superb position within the popular Cotswold village of Didmarton close to amenities and with southerly views backing onto the recreational fields and the Badminton Estate beyond. The property was individually constructed in the 1970s in the grounds of the neighbouring property where the former forge once stood. There is a number of excellent primary schools located close by whilst private education is offered at Westonbirt School and Beaudesert Park School. Didmarton is very well placed for the A46, M4 (Junction 18), Bath and Bristol. The principal accommodation is arranged on the upper ground floor comprising a spacious entrance hall, 2 reception rooms, a kitchen/dining room, 3 bedrooms and a bathroom. The accommodation takes advantage of the excellent elevated views over the picturesque surrounds at the rear. The lower ground floor was originally designed to accommodate a home business and now offers a very large and versatile area. Currently accessed at the rear it offers potential to be incorporated into the main accommodation. Also at the rear is an integrated garage. There is an additional stone built outbuilding which has plenty of charm and is currently a double carport/barn with adjoining workshop. Potential for conversion to other uses (subject to consents). There is a gated driveway to the side of the property leading to the rear which provides plenty of parking. The outside area has been designed for easy upkeeping with a front garden and additional garden area at the rear. We understand the property has oil fired central heating, mains drainage, water and electricity. The property is located within the Cotswold Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
