An exceptional Cotswold house, set on the edge of the
village with a lovely rural aspect
Description
Arlington Farmhouse is a splendid former farmhouse which is tucked away on the edge of a charming Cotswold Village. The property which dates back to the late 17th Century is Grade II Listed and is capable of providing self contained accommodation if required.
In recent years the current owners have considerably improved the property, both inside and out. The house now provides exceptionally well presented family accommodation which is appointed to a high standard throughout. However, the original charm and character remains and is particularly evident in the drawing room with its vaulted ceiling and in the dining room where there is an impressive Inglenook Fireplace. There is also a third reception room with a log burning stove and which opens directly into the garden. The kitchen/breakfast room is particularly well fitted with a good range of appliances, glass fronted cupboards and a four oven aga. On the ground floor there are also two cloakrooms and a utility room. In addition there is direct access into the cottage, which includes two reception rooms and a kitchen.
On the first floor there is a superb main suite which includes a luxury bathroom and a very generous dressing room, which was
previously used as a bedroom. Approached through a laundry room further bedrooms and two bathrooms (one being ensuite).
These rooms could form part of the cottage and can be approached directly off the rear hall.
Two further bedrooms are found on the second floor making five in total and excluding the dressing room.
Externally, a gated driveway leads up to a wide gravelled parking area in front of the house. A gateway leads through to the walled garden which is a particular feature of the property and is well stocked with a variety of shrubs, as well as flower and herbaceous borders. There is also a flagstone terrace adjacent to the cottage as well as a former outside office which has now been converted to a party barn with exposed timbers, stone fireplace and stove. Next to it is a triple garage with parking to the front and which is approached off a secondary drive. Beyond the garden and shielded by a Cotswold Stone Wall is a small graveyard which is believed to be unconsecrated.

Additional Info
Arlington Farmhouse is situated on the edge of this charming Cotswold village. Described by Williams Morris as ‘the most beautiful village in England’, it supports a Parish Church, Primary School, hotel, pub and a shop being part of the Trout Farm. Wonderful stone buildings are strung out along the banks of The River Coln, and Arlington Row is so photogenic that it even appears on the inside cover of UK Passports.
Nearby Cirencester, often referred to as the ‘Capital of The Cotswolds’, is only about 7 miles away and provides excellent boutique shops, restaurants and two supermarkets, including
Waitrose. The town was mentioned in the Doomsday Book and traders still set up their stalls every Monday and Friday.
Contributing to the area’s appeal are the convenient transport
links with easy access to the M40 via the A40 and to the M4
via the A419. There are also train links from Kemble Station (about 12 miles) to London Paddington in about 75 minutes. The area is well-situated for some of the best schools in the country in Cheltenham and Oxfordshire.
Local leisure activities include cricket at the Bibury Cricket Club, sailing at the Cotswold Water Park, boating on The River Thames, golf at Burford and Cirencester, polo at Cirencester Park, trout fishing and superb walks throughout the surrounding countryside.
