4 bed end terrace house for sale

The Park, Kingscote GL8

Description

1 The Park is an impressive period house, originally the Coach House to Kingscote Park, set within delightful, generous, and private gardens of around half an acre. Situated in the heart of the peaceful village of Kingscote, it offers a quintessential English view of the neighbouring Church. The property is beautifully presented with elegant accommodation, sympathetically extended to offer spacious proportions arranged principally over two floors, spanning around 2,855 sq.ft. In 2025, the property underwent significant upgrades, including an extensive scheme of re-roofing the original part of the house complete with enhanced insulation, a replacement Velux window, all new external guttering, and electrical updates.

The whole house has a welcoming feel, and the size of the two reception rooms, with their high ceilings, makes them ideal for entertaining and family life. Both of these principal rooms feature fireplaces with wood-burning stoves. At the heart of the house is the kitchen/breakfast room, which opens directly onto a sunny entertaining terrace. The stylish kitchen features an aga, a peninsula unit, and a walk-in larder. On the first floor, there are four good-sized double bedrooms (two with vaulted ceilings) and two bathrooms, one of which has been updated as a shower room. The extension has been configured to facilitate a principal bedroom suite with a bedroom, dressing room, and en suite shower room. A large landing area is currently used as a study but offers easy potential to be converted to an additional bedroom if required. On the second floor, there is a small loft room and access to the attic.

The extensive gardens are a major feature and extend to around 0.5 acres, enjoying lovely views to the church and benefiting from a high degree of privacy. The gardens are divided into separate 'rooms', creating an idyllic setting for the house with lawns, a kitchen garden, a wooded area, and strategic sun terraces. A large patio terrace adjoins the side of the property, complete with a sheltered cover, enabling the area to be enjoyed in all weather types. Within the garden, there are two sheds, one with power, and a greenhouse also with power connected. To the front of the house is a gravelled driveway providing private parking for several vehicles.
