Description

Originally two cottages, Pump Green House was extended and combined into one dwelling in approximately 1970. The property presents a special opportunity to purchase a spacious family home situated within one of the Cotswolds most sought after villages of Evenlode.

Pump Green House is discreetly hidden behind beautifully mature hedging, providing ample parking for several vehicles and car charging point. The property is set back away from the road, in a very private location.

The internal accommodation flows from the kitchen/dining room which was an extension to the property fifteen years ago. Benefitting from underfloor heating, a vaulted ceiling and velux windows, this room is flooded with natural light. There are a range of base units providing organised storage and a pantry cupboard. There is ample space for dining, relaxing, entertaining and cooking. French doors open onto the private terrace which is the perfect place for entertaining.

The dining room provides a light, airy space providing a second access to the gardens. The flow and flood of natural light continues with a connecting door into a well-proportioned sitting room which is dual aspect and enjoys views over the garden. The second sitting room benefits from a wood burning stove and built-in book cases, providing a cosy space. French doors lead out into the private front garden. A utility room and WC completes the ground floor accommodation.

A staircase leads from the sitting room to the first floor. The principal bedroom has a wonderful view of the garden to the rear and an en suite bathroom. There are three further bedrooms, the majority of which have built in storage and a family bathroom.

Pump Green House sits in a plot of approximately 0.41 acres mainly laid to lawn, providing an extremely private garden. A terrace area with water feature just off the kitchen is the perfect spot for al fresco dining.

The gardens were completely re-landscaped around five years ago, providing different ‘rooms’ such as a vegetable patch, flowerbeds with well-stocked borders and mature trees, and an abundance of fruit trees. The garden also benefits from extensive areas of wild flower planting.

To the top of the garden is a designated seating area which benefits from far reaching views towards Chastleton House, and a greenhouse. This is the perfect place to sit with a coffee, cocktail or have a BBQ whilst enjoying the view.
