Village Location
Built in the Cotswold vernacular Ivy Cottage is constructed of classic Cotswold stone and is rich in charm and character. The property has been a cherished home for the current owner for some 23 years and although it requires general modernisation and updating, still retains a wealth of original features including exposed timber beams, some stone mullioned windows, and an impressive open fireplace.
The living space is arranged over three floors, offering a wonderful blend of period features and comfortable family living. From the front garden, an entrance door opens into a welcoming hall with stairs rising to the first floor. The drawing room features exposed beams, a fireplace, and ample space for both seating and dining areas. A versatile snug/playroom enjoys direct access to the rear garden. The kitchen includes fitted units, tiled work surfaces, and a Oil fired Aga. A utility room provides an integrated double oven, additional storage and access to the cloakroom, garage, and gardens.
On the first floor are two bedrooms, both enjoying dual-aspect windows, together with adjacent bathrooms. A dressing room/ nursery, is positioned alongside a separate shower room, and the principal bedroom further benefits from fitted cupboards and charming window seats.
A staircase rises to the second floor, where two additional bedrooms provide versatile accommodation, ideal for guests, family living, or home working.
Outside
The property enjoys mature gardens to both the front and rear, enclosed by Cotswold stone walls and hedges that provide a wonderful sense of privacy and seclusion.
A pedestrian gate set within the front stone wall opens onto a pathway leading to the front entrance, flanked on either side by well-maintained lawns, colourful flowering borders, and mature shrubs. Adding further character to the setting is a former well.
To the rear, a wide terrace provides an ideal space for outdoor entertaining and al fresco dining, complemented by a delightful seating area beneath a pergola, perfect for relaxing and enjoying the gardens throughout the warmer months.
To the side of the house, a gravel driveway leads to the garage, which benefits from direct access into the property.
Situation
Marston Meysey is renowned for its welcoming village community with both a Parish Church and a traditional pub. For a wider range of shopping, leisure, and commercial facilities, Cirencester and Swindon are both easily accessible, the nearby towns of Fairford and Cricklade for day-to-day amenities. Swindon also offers a regular InterCity rail service to London Paddington, with journey times of approximately 65 minutes, and J15 of the M4 lies around 2 miles south of Swindon.
