Detached house for sale in Lower End, Ramsden, Chipping Norton, Oxfordshire OX7

Striking family home on the edge of a highly sought after Cotswold village.

Description
Cotswold Edge is a beautifully restored and extended, typical Cotswold stone house. It sits in an elevated position on the edge of the village with views across stone walled fields and woodland beyond.

Innovative design, execution and attention to detail are evident inside inside and out, showcasing the skill in marrying period design with time-honoured craftsmanship, and the requirements of 21st century living.

Belgium partitions and doors, porcelain floors, soft chalky walls, planked ceilings, bespoke cabinetry, striking sanitaryware and tiles all feature, as do the tall ceilings throughout.

The front door opens to a good sized reception hall, which in turn leads round to the generously proportioned, triple aspect kitchen. The working end of this room has distressed-look plank cabinetry to the main base units, beneath a stone worktop and unusual half pencil-scalloped cabinetry to the island. Appliances include Gaggenau oven, combi oven, warming drawer and induction hob, an integrated Fisher & Paykel fridge/freezer and Quooker tap and wine fridge. Adjacent, a good sized pantry has further cupboard storage. French doors and panels open to the west facing terrace.

The sitting room, also triple aspect, is accessed via its own staircase to first floor level, maximising the views. The planked ceiling is open to the eaves and a bolection moulded stone fireplace houses a wood burning stove.

A study lies directly off the hall with full height cupboards to one wall. Opposite is a cloakroom.

Steps drop to a lower hall towards the back door, with the utility room and plant room to one side. Also here is the guest bedroom (with en suite shower room), a further bedroom/playroom and a family shower room.

The main staircase rises and returns to a galleried landing, open to the eaves, as are all the bedrooms on the first floor. The principal bedroom suite has a stunning marble walled contemporary bathroom with freestanding bath, separate shower and a double vanity unit. There are bespoke wardrobes to one wall. The two further bedrooms on this floor are also beautifully appointed. One with an en suite bathroom with freestanding double ended bath, the other a shower room.

Outside.
The partly walled gardens wrap around the house and are creatively planted. Walls and yew hedging divide the different areas. A lawn spans the rear of the house and sweeps round to the west facing terrace outside the kitchen. A lovely feature is a tall stone chimney which could house a fire or barbeque. Steps rise to the end of the lawn and fruit trees.
