LOXLEY HOUSEMORETON IN MARSH | GLOUCESTERSHIRE

AN IMMACULATE, CONTEMPORARY HOME.

SITUATIONLoxley House is situated in the heart of Broadwell, one of the finest

and most sought after villages in the North Cotswolds. The property is

1½ miles form Stow on the Wold and 3 miles south of the market town

of Moreton in Marsh. Stow on the Wold has a variety of shops for

most everyday needs including a Tesco supermarket. Cheltenham,

Oxford and Cirencester and Stratford upon Avon provide more

extensive shopping, leisure and educational facilities. Communication

links are good with a regular main line rail service from Moreton in

Marsh or Kingham to Oxford and London Paddington.

THE PROPERTYLoxley House is an immaculate contemporary home recently

constructed of Cotswold stone. Formerly a cottage, the property has

been completely remodelled with a design by local architects

Eastabrook Associates and now provides superb accommodation on

three floors. Built to an exacting standard, the property has all the

benefits of modern building techniques and top quality fittings. These

include Matki and Porcelanosa bathroom fittings, Mandarin stone tiles

and Hartham Park stone fireplaces and staircase. On the ground floor,

the floors are marble and oak with under floor heating. In addition the

property has Cat 5 cabling and is wired for surround sound in the

principal ground floor rooms.

The property is approached via a short gravel driveway through a five

bar gate which leads to a parking area in front of a stone built double

garage. A gravel path leads to an open porch from where the front

door opens into the entrance hall with marble floor, open fireplace and

cantilevered staircase rising to a galleried landing. Off the hall is the

drawing room, glazed at one end, with open fireplace with stone

surround and mantel, oak boarded floors and French doors into the

garden. A pair of wooden doors open into the dining room again with

marble floor, open fireplace with stone surround and mantel and

French doors into the garden. A door leads back into the entrance hall.

Next door to the dining room is a study with a marble floor. Opposite

is a cloakroom. The superb kitchen/breakfast room is a particular

feature of Loxley House and was manufactured by Edwin Loxley with

solid walnut units, Corian and etched granite work surfaces, kitchen

aid appliances including built in fridge freezer with storage cupboards

either side, double fridge drawers within the island unit which also has

a preparation area with small sink, built in dishwasher, gas hob and

fire place with stone surround. Off the kitchen is the utility room with

sink, oil fired boiler and space for washing machine and tumble drier.

There are further floor and wall mounted storage units with granite

work top.

From the entrance hall, the magnificent stone cantilevered staircase

rises to the first floor landing off which is the airing cupboard which

also houses the Netgear hub. There are three bedroom suites, two with

bath and shower, and one with a shower. The bedrooms all have built

in hanging wardrobes. From the landing, stairs rise to the second floor

where there are two further bedrooms and a shower room.

OUTSIDEThe gardens were originally planted by a renowned local horticulturist

and include one of the original fossil trees from the first seeds sent to

Kew by American botanists in 1948.The gardens extend to

approximately 0.8 of an acre and have recently been re-landscaped and

provide a perfect canvas for an enthusiastic gardener to create new

borders. A stream runs through the garden and there is a brook on the

boundary. To the rear of the house is a paved terrace with adjoining

areas of lawn. To the front of the house is a further area of gravel and

infant box hedging, and a well. The garden contains a wide variety of

specimen trees and mature shrubs.
