DESCRIPTION
Washwell House is a handsome Grade II Listed property, nestled on the edge of the historic village of Painswick. A sweeping driveway creates an impressive entrance to this substantial Cotswold stone house which offers an abundance of practical living spaces alongside exceptional period charm.
The main residence opens to a fabulous reception hall which sets the tone to the remainder of the house. Original period features abound in every room, with stunning flagstone flooring in the reception hall, large sash windows throughout and a host of original fireplaces. The central part of the house is of Georgian origin, with later Victorian additions on either side and a further cottage added at a later date.
The two main reception rooms provide ample living and entertaining spaces with original fireplaces and large sash windows overlooking the valley, allowing for an abundance of natural light. A third reception, designated to be a spacious music room by the current owners, would work equally well as further entertaining space.
The kitchen is clearly the heart of the home. Fitted with bespoke deVol units, the room exudes English country charm. With ample room for a large table, this is the perfect space for relaxed family suppers or informal entertaining with friends. A handsome original fireplace adds warmth for the colder months. A garden room leads off the kitchen with plans drawn up to renovate and create a wonderful additional space (subject to planning consent). A large full-height cellar is accessed from the garden room.
A boot room plus laundry room, provides plentiful storage for hiding washing away and storing country paraphernalia. A vinery leads off the boot room, ideal for conversion to a covered alfresco dining area.
Two separate staircases lead to four spacious first floor bedrooms, the principal with large walk-in dressing room and Jack and Jill bathroom. A further bathroom is also located at this level. There are three further bedrooms on the second floor, together with another bathroom and a fabulous large studio. All of the bedrooms have been thoughtfully laid out and all benefit from magnificent views over the garden and valley.
Vine Cottage provides separate attached accommodation, offering a self-contained one bed property with kitchen/breakfast room and sitting room, as well as its own courtyard.
The grounds comprise circa 1.5 acres of sweeping lawn with exceptional views across the Painswick Valley. An additional fenced paddock of circa 2.5 acres is available via separate negotiation. A former stable block provides useful garden storage, together with two large store rooms. A heated, covered swimming pool provides year-round entertainment.
