This is the sort of home that has clearly been lived in and enjoyed, with a layout that offers far more than first impressions might suggest. There is space, flexibility and plenty of character, from parquet flooring and painted brickwork to wood panelling, exposed stone and wonderfully large windows that draw the garden into the house. The property is approached through an entrance porch, which gives access to the double garage, the additional annexe-style accommodation and the main entrance hall. The hall sets a warm tone, with wooden flooring, stairs rising to the first floor, useful storage and a cloakroom with WC and wash hand basin. To the left is a generous dual aspect living room, a comfortable and characterful space with a large window to the front, painted brickwork, a fireplace and double doors opening directly out to the garden. It is a room that feels properly lived in and inviting, with the proportions to work for both everyday life and larger family gatherings. What was originally the dining room is currently used as an art room, but could easily return to more formal dining or work brilliantly as a study, playroom or creative space. From here, a wide opening leads into the orangery, a beautifully light triple aspect room with a roof lantern and bi-fold doors opening to one of the terraces. This is one of the real highlights of the house, giving a lovely connection to the garden and creating a calm, bright space to sit, eat or simply enjoy the outlook. The kitchen/breakfast room sits at the heart of the practical day-to-day layout, fitted with a good range of storage and worktop space. From the kitchen, a small inner hall with further storage leads through to the utility room, which has access out to the garden and also connects with the annexe-style accommodation. Affectionately know as 'The West Wing', this part of the house could one of its most useful features. Currently used as part of the main home, it includes an additional reception room with double doors to the garden and stairs rising to a further bedroom above. With some adaptation, the layout lends itself well to creating a self-contained annexe, whether for family, guests, older children or anyone needing a degree of independence while still being connected to the main house. Upstairs, the main landing gives access to four bedrooms, all with built-in wardrobes. The principal bedroom has its own en-suite shower room, while the remaining bedrooms are served by the family bathroom, fitted with a bath, WC, bidet and wash hand basin. The rooms are generous, flexible and full of natural light, with several enjoying leafy views over the gardens.

The setting is a major part of the appeal. To the front, there is driveway parking leading to the large double garage, with further access into the garden. The garage also has stairs leading up to a useful first floor storage area, which offers further potential depending on requirements. Gated side access leads through to the rear garden, and this is where the property really starts to shine. Set within an overall plot of around a third of an acre, the gardens are private, mature and full of interest, with lawned areas, patios, established trees, colourful planting and a wonderful sense of seclusion. There are several outbuildings, useful tucked-away areas and plenty of space to explore, potter, entertain or simply enjoy the peace. It is not a manicured blank canvas, and that is very much part of its charm. It feels established, natural and properly loved, giving the house a setting that is increasingly hard to find.

Kempsford is a well-regarded Cotswold village with a proper community feel, a primary school, village pub and easy access to surrounding countryside. It is a location that gives you the appeal of village life without feeling cut off. Fairford is close by, offering a wider range of shops, cafés, schools and everyday amenities, while Cirencester, Lechlade, Cricklade and Swindon are all within reach. The road links also work well for those needing to travel further afield, with access towards the A419, A417 and wider Cotswold road network.
