A charming detached home situated in a superb village
Description
Westholme is a handsome, light and airy property within the sought after village of Great Rissington, with origins believed to date back to about the 1700’s and later additions.
This charming detached home has accommodation that flows from one room to the next and has been cherished by the current owners for just under 20 years. It is now being offered back to the market for a new custodian to enjoy.
Double wooden entrance doors open to an entrance vestibule, where there is space to remove coats and boots. From here a door opens to the welcoming sitting room with oak flooring and natural light pouring in from the mullion windows. The focal point of the room is a log burner which creates a warm and cosy feel.
Pass through the sitting room to the hall to find a downstairs utility/cloakroom with space for extra boots and coats, a wash basin, WC and space for a washing machine.
Tiled flooring flows from the hallway into the dining room, that is the heart of the home. It features exposed wooden beams, a feature former fireplace, and flows through to the fitted kitchen. The kitchen includes marble worktops, an electric Aga and French doors open to the south-facing garden.
Two of the double bedrooms enjoy en suites, one of which is fitted with a bath and the other a corner shower, whilst the three further bedrooms are served by a family bathroom. The smaller of these bedrooms could also be used as a home office.
Outside
The south facing lawned garden is private and tranquil, with a selection of established trees, including apple, pear and ash and offers wonderful outdoor dining and entertaining space. There is a also a large, useful timber garden store in the top corner.
