Merlin Cottage is an exquisitely presented Grade II listed Cotswold stone home, dating back to the 18th century, that perfectly balances historic charm with contemporary style. Tucked within a picturesque Cotswold village, it offers an idyllic lifestyle surrounded by timeless countryside, yet with every modern comfort at hand.
Lovingly renovated by the current owner, the cottage showcases an impressive attention to detail: The kitchen and bathrooms have been beautifully remodelled, Farrow & Ball paints bring depth and elegance to every room, and natural wool carpets add warmth and luxury underfoot. Period details abound, from exposed beams and stonework to lath and plaster walls, while carefully chosen finishes give the interiors a fresh, stylish feel.
The welcoming front door opens into a substantial sitting and dining room where heritage and comfort meet. With plantation shutters framing the windows, a Dean Forge wood-burning stove set into a stone fireplace, and a flagstone hearth, it’s a room made for cosy evenings and convivial gatherings. Clever storage solutions, including a cloaks cupboard and under-stairs space, add practicality without compromising charm.
The heart of the home is undoubtedly the open-plan kitchen and garden room. Designed for both everyday living and entertaining, it features quartz worktops, a Belfast sink with copper taps, integrated appliances, and a striking Rangemaster oven with a copper-and-aluminium mosaic splashback. Beyond, the vaulted garden room with French doors blurs the boundary between indoors and out, opening onto a sun terrace – the perfect spot for summer dining or relaxing in the evening sun.
Upstairs, the principal bedroom is rich in character, complete with a Victorian fireplace, an elegant mantelpiece, and a charming oeil-de-boeuf window. A further single bedroom, currently a dressing room, connects via sliding door to the Jack and Jill bathroom, styled with a slipper bath, separate shower, and Karndean flooring. The top floor offers two double bedrooms nestled beneath the eaves, both with built-in wardrobes and served by an additional bathroom – ideal for family or visiting guests.
Merlin Cottage is more than just a home: It is a Cotswold retreat, where period beauty and modern luxury combine seamlessly. Whether enjoying the warmth of the log fire, dining alfresco on the sunlit terrace, or simply savouring village life, this property embodies the essence of the Cotswold lifestyle.
Perched on a ridge overlooking the surrounding countryside, Bourton on the Hill is a picturesque Cotswold village known for its charm and character. Despite its tranquil setting, the village enjoys excellent access to nearby amenities. Just a short drive away, the vibrant market town of Moreton-in-Marsh offers a wide range of shops, cafés, restaurants, and a mainline railway station with direct services to London Paddington. Day-to-day needs are well catered for, while a wealth of leisure and dining options can be found in neighbouring Stow-on-the-Wold, Chipping Campden, and Broadway, all within easy reach. The village also benefits from nearby scenic walking routes and close proximity to renowned gardens and historic attractions.
