Discreetly positioned at the end of a private driveway in the centre of this picturesque north Cotswold village and the central one of only three properties in this hideaway location, this inner-terraced, two-storey, two bedroom country retreat is perfect for a young couple, second home or indeed has been used as a holiday home for investment purposes for many years.
Character features of the property include a homely woodburning stove set in a Cotswold stone fireplace with back boiler capable of heating hot water and radiators. Some exposed timbers and particularly lovely views over gardens to the south and over trees and gardens to the rear giving a real feel of country living.
Technically speaking the property has Upvc double glazed windows and doors, night store heating, a modern bathroom suite and a fitted kitchen with a built-in oven and hob.
The rear garden is completely enclosed and safe for pets and the front driveway offers parking for two vehicles. There are scenic walks to be enjoyed in the surrounding countryside with immediate access from the end of the driveway.
Stretton-on-Fosse is located between the Cotswold market towns of Shipston-on-Stour and Moreton-in-Marsh with the latter having its own railway station, 10 minutes away, with links to Oxford and London Paddington.
