Description
The Walled Garden is a substantial, detached, Georgian family house situated on the edge of the hugely desirable village of Bibury. Built, to an exceptional standard, between 1986 and 1988, by the current owners, it is constructed of coursed limestone with a stone ‘hip and sprocket’
roof. This is an excellent house which is full of charm and character. There is a
wealth of period detail, including stone ashlar coins, Purbeck stone fireplaces
and sash windows. The rooms are light and well-proportioned and benefit
from views overlooking the gardens.
Situation & LocationThe Walled Garden is situated on the edge of Bibury, close to the renowned
Bibury Court (now a private residence) and the Church. Bibury lies in the Coln
Valley within the Cotswolds, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. William
Morris once described Bibury as “the most beautiful village in England“.
Bibury has a vibrant village community with Primary School, cricket and
football clubs, WI and history group together with its own public houses and
the well-known Swan Hotel. It is filled with character and tradition with lovely
walks along the banks of the River Coln and surrounding area.
Cirencester is the nearest market town providing a wide range of shopping
facilities and schools, together with supermarkets, banks, chemists and
recreational amenities. More extensive facilities can be found at the larger
centres of Cheltenham, Swindon, Oxford, Bath and Bristol. Bibury is well
served by good access to the A417/A419 at Cirencester, which provides
excellent links to the M4 and M5 motorways. Kemble and Swindon stations
provide regular inter-city train links to London Paddington.
AmenitiesThere are many enjoyable walks in the area together with an extensive
network of footpaths and bridleways with excellent riding. Hunting is with
the VWH and polo played regularly at Cirencester Park. Water sports at the
Cotswold Water Park, golf at South Cerney, Swindon and Cirencester. Racing
at Cheltenham and Newbury. Theatres at Oxford, Cheltenham and Bath.
The area is noted for both its private and state schools. The former include
Hatherop Castle which is just a short drive from the house, Rendcomb
College, Beaudesert Park, Westonbirt, and Cheltenham Ladies and
Cheltenham Boys Colleges.
AccommodationThe accommodation is arranged over three floors, the majority with large
sash windows overlooking the terraces and gardens and in brief comprising;
Drawing Room with fireplace with stone surround and wood burning stove. The Kitchen/Breakfast Room with bespoke units and a four oven electric Aga is a wonderful room for relaxed family living while the adjoining Dining Room provides a more formal space for entertaining. There is a Study, Utility/Boot Room, Cloakroom and Utility Room all located on the ground floor.
On the first floor there is a Master Bedroom with stunning views over the gardens and beyond with a series of built in wardrobes and an en-suite Bathroom. A further four Double Bedrooms lead off the landing as well as an airing cupboard, and two bathrooms.
Stairs rise to a second floor with an Office area, Double Bedroom, Playroom and further attic rooms suitable for a variety of uses.
Gardens & Grounds
The gardens and grounds of The Walled Garden are quite lovely and give a wonderful setting for the house. The high stone walls provides not only protection, privacy and shelter but also backdrops for the thriving borders and flower beds.
The gardens are a balance of formal and informal with individual corners
contrasting well with the wide expanses of lawns. Numerous doors from
the main house lead directly out to the terrace and formal lawned area
ideal for outside entertaining. There are wonderful views of the surrounding
countryside, Church and Bibury Court, which can be enjoyed from almost
every aspect of the garden.
The drive enters through a pair of wooden gates into a gravel parking area
adjacent to the Double Garage with ample parking for two cars. Subject to the necessary planning permission the garage could be converted and utilised
as an office, studio or potentially ancillary accommodation.
