DESCRIPTION
White Lion House is a property steeped in history believed to date back to the 14th Century, with a later extension in 1697. Once a pub called The King's Head, it is now a private home which has been in the same ownership for over 60 years.
The accommodation is arranged over three floors with charming original period features throughout and offers the opportunity for a new owner to update and/or extend to create an impressive family home, rarely available in such a central sought after location.
Just off the Market Square the front door opens through an internal porch into a double drawing room with exposed wooden beams, Inglenook fireplace with gas fire and bread oven as well as pretty window seats overlooking the Market Square. There are also steps leading down to a good sized cellar. The drawing room leads through to a central hallway off which are the triple aspect dining room and kitchen, which overlooks the patio area, and a useful utility room. There is scope to extend the kitchen to the rear of the property to create a large open-plan kitchen/breakfast room with direct access to the garden (subject to the necessary planning).
On the first floor is another sitting room which is flooded with natural light, with an exposed stone wall and a wood burning stove. There are also two double bedrooms, a family bathroom and a separate shower room (both with WC).
On the second floor is the large dual aspect 21 ft principal bedroom with an interconnecting fourth bedroom (more recently used as an office). These two rooms could be converted to create one large bedroom suite and there is also a large boarded attic above, useful for storage.
The gardens and outbuildings are a truly unexpected bonus and delight. Directly behind the house is a patio area leading to lawns with a summer house. Beyond this is a gravelled parking area accessed via double gates on Friday Street with a detached Coach House, Studio and Loggia of over 700 sq.ft. The possibilities for this space are endless - an annexe, home office, studio, garaging etc.
Beyond this area, steps lead to a wonderful upper garden with a pond, courtyard and an extensive lawn bordering Friday Street with a high Cotswold Stone wall.
