About
Description Kings Cottage is an intriguing link-detached period cottage boasting far more than meets the eye.
The cottage is tucked in the very centre of the Cotswold village of Didmarton down a private drive, Kings Terrace, which is shared with just one other property.
Originating as three cottages now joined as one, Kings Cottage offers significant accommodation of over 2,200 sq.ft.
Coupled with an enchanting separate garden of around 0.23 acres which has wonderful peaceful views across the Badminton Estate.
Internally, the accommodation is filled with character and has great potential for the next owners to put their mark on the property.
The ground floor layout includes a spacious living room with stone fireplace, a dining hall also with a fireplace plus patio doors connecting to the courtyard garden, and a kitchen.
There is also a downstairs modern shower room, utility/boot room with separate entrance, and a workshop which connects to the garage.
Upstairs on the first floor, there are three bedrooms and a further shower room with ample storage.
The top floor comprises two attic rooms offering an additional bedroom with lovely timber beams and a home office.
Approaching the cottage, there is private off-street parking for three cars in addition to the garage.
Adjoining the rear of the cottage itself is a courtyard which benefits from a westerly aspect ideal for enjoying the evening sun.
Located across the shared driveway is the fantastic addition of the further and main garden area. This substantial plot offers peace and tranquillity backing onto neighbouring paddocks.
The garden is filled with mature shrubs and laid into two principal lawn areas, interspersed with fruit trees and flower beds. The garden also benefits from existing water and electricity connections.
