This charming family home dates back to the 1850s and has been lovingly extended and much improved by the current owners. Set in a rural location, the stone-built home backs onto open farmland, which provides wonderful countryside views.
The spacious entrance hallway has an impressive exposed stone wall and provides access to both the kitchen and family/dining area. The airy kitchen is fitted with a great range of base and wall units and includes a range oven, dishwasher, and fridge. Adjacent to the kitchen is a handy utility room, providing space for the washing machine, tumble dryer, and large fridge/freezer. Across the rear of the home is a wonderful family dining area; this is open to the kitchen and makes a great area for both family living and entertaining. Doors lead from here out into the rear garden. An internal hallway links the dining area to the study and to the formal sitting room, which is at the front of the house. This cosy room has an open fireplace. In addition on the ground floor, there is an additional sitting room, which has an adjacent bathroom - this room could be used as a play room, snug, office or fifth bedroom if required.
To the first floor, the spacious landing provides access to all of the four well-proportioned bedrooms and to the family bathroom. The master bedroom benefits from an en suite shower room, a walk-in wardrobe, and a Juliet balcony which makes the most of the wonderful views to the rear.
Externally, the property has ample driveway parking to the front along with a lawned area. A side gate provides access to the rear garden, which is mainly laid to lawn with some shrubs and opens out to the adjoining farmland. There are two outbuildings which have the potential to be converted into additional living accommodation or a home office with great views. Both buildings are connected to electricity and one features a cloakroom.
The property benefits from being connected to mains gas, water, full fibre broadband, and electricity, with a septic tank in the rear garden.<br /><br />Bampton sits close to the edge of the Cotswolds and is one of the oldest and prettiest villages in the area. While it retains much of the character of the traditional Cotswold village, it is also a hive of activity with a multitude of events taking place throughout the year - with something for everyone.
Bampton is also the envy of many of the neighbouring villages in that it boasts an excellent array of amenities for a village of its size. It has a post office, library, a sports ground and pavilion, an art gallery, two churches, a primary school, a medical centre and of course a market square.
The village is well known as one of the film sets for Downton Abbey and as the background to the popular crime novels by Melvin Starr featuring the mediaeval surgeon, Hugh de Singleton.
