3 Bed Detached House For Sale

Knapp Cottage is a very attractive detached Cotswold cottage, beautifully presented throughout. The sitting room is charming and leads directly through to the snug – linking these two rooms is a double sided Chesneys log burner. To the rear is the large kitchen/dining room with plenty of fitted units, wall-mounted AEG oven with separate microwave/combination oven and French doors leading directly onto the rear garden. A utility room with WC completes the accommodation on the ground floor. On the first floor there are three bedrooms, including the principal bedroom with its well-appointed en suite shower room, and an additional family bathroom with airing cupboard. There is general storage space within the insulated loft and in the understairs cupboard.

Knapp Cottage is set back behind a gate and a gravelled driveway. The front and rear gardens have been professionally landscaped and are filled with an abundance of mature plants and shrubs. The rear garden is particularly secluded and in one corner there is a part paved, part gravelled terrace which is a real sun trap during the warmer months and a delightful area in which to entertain al-fresco. A large garden store provides an excellent space for a workshop/general storage and there is a secondary large stone-built shed, adjacent to the drive and roadside, providing further storage.

Poulton is a desirable and active Cotswold village with a popular pub, The Falcon Inn, as well as a village hall, church and Poulton Cricket Club.

Cirencester, with its excellent range of shops, supermarkets and restaurants, is 5 miles away and other local centres include Fairford, Lechlade and Burford. The main regional centres are Cheltenham, Swindon and Oxford, all of which are within daily commuting distance. Poulton is also approximately 4 miles from the A419 dual carriageway, providing access to Junction 15 of the M4 at Swindon. In the opposite direction, the A417 leads to Junction 11A of the M5 at Gloucester. Direct rail services to London Paddington are from Kemble or Swindon stations, the latter scheduled to take from approximately 55 minutes.
