Laverton Hill House
This fine period property set against a backdrop of the Cotswold foothills would be the perfect home for a family in search of rural tranquillity.


Laverton Hill House, located in the small hamlet of Laverton in the Cotswolds, combines an idyllic rural setting with accessibility to both local amenities and Cheltenham mainline railway station.
The village lane becomes a footpath when it reaches the house, creating a private haven undisturbed by passing traffic. Built from mellowed local stone, the house boasts picturesque, south-facing gardens, with views over the Cotswold Hills. Beyond the spacious lawn is a hard court tennis court which is in need of resurfacing, and is carefully shielded by trees.

The house itself retains many period features, such as the exposed chimney beam above the large, open fireplace in the drawing room. The kitchen has been recently updated and has granite worktops and windows to three aspects, affording delightful views over the garden. In addition there is a dining room, study and cloakroom downstairs, accessed from the flagstoned hallway.

Laverton Hill House has five bedrooms, four of which are ensuite, as well as one further bathroom - ideal for avoiding bathroom queues in the morning. Situated 13 miles from Cheltenham, this beautiful rural house in quiet countryside would make a wonderful family home.

Exquisite houses, the beauty of Nature, and how to get the most from your life, straight to your inbox.
Country Life is unlike any other magazine: the only glossy weekly on the newsstand and the only magazine that has been guest-edited by HRH The King not once, but twice. It is a celebration of modern rural life and all its diverse joys and pleasures — that was first published in Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee year. Our eclectic mixture of witty and informative content — from the most up-to-date property news and commentary and a coveted glimpse inside some of the UK's best houses and gardens, to gardening, the arts and interior design, written by experts in their field — still cannot be found in print or online, anywhere else.
