Overview

Cromwell House is a delightful Grade II* Listed property dating from the 17th Century. Mentioned in Pevsner’s “Gloucestershire: The Cotswolds”. Cromwell House is a building of special architectural and historic interest. Built of stone under a Cotswold tiled roof, the property has been extended over the centuries and is now a charming family house set in just under an acre of gardens and grounds. There are a number of architectural features including: exposed beams; shuttered and mullioned windows, many with intricate window furniture; panelling; window seats and open fireplaces. Approached through a pair of five-bar gates, the drive leads to a parking area to the north of the house. The front door opens into an entrance hall, off-which are the reception rooms which include the drawing room and the dining room which both have open fireplaces with attractive stone surrounds. These two rooms are linked by a walk-through cupboard. There is a study and a sitting room with an inglenook fireplace and wood burning stove. At the other end of the entrance hall is the fully-fitted kitchen/breakfast room with a limestone floor, granite work surfaces and a two oven oil-fired Aga. There is also an electric hob, an island unit and extensive storage. Through the kitchen is a boot room and utility room.

From the entrance hall, stairs rise to the first floor landing and the bedroom accommodation which is arranged over two floors. There is a principal bedroom with vaulted ceiling with double doors which lead through to the en-suite bathroom with a free standing bath and a shower cubicle. There are a further three double bedrooms, a bathroom and a shower room. A staircase rises to the second floor where there are two further bedrooms and a bathroom.

This property has 0.84 acres of land.

Outside

To the east of the house is a traditional barn which has been converted into a library/music room with a limestone floor and wood burning stove. Adjacent to the gravelled parking area is a stone-built double garage with storage above and adjacent garden store. The gardens are predominantly laid to lawn, flanked by mature established borders and a paved terrace with a door from the kitchen. The gardens are contained within dry stone walls and mature hedging. To the rear of the garage is a pretty orchard.

Cromwell House is situated in the picturesque and sought after North Cotswold village of Naunton which lies in the Windrush Valley between Stow-on-the-Wold and Cheltenham. The village has a pub which is within 100 yards of the house, whilst Stow-on-the-Wold has a variety of shops for most everyday needs. Cheltenham is within 11 miles and provides an extensive range of cultural, leisure, shopping and educational amenities. A regular main line train service runs from Kingham Station with services to London, Paddington taking from 80 minutes.
