The River House is a charming Cotswold stone property in an idyllic setting with fantastic views across the River Avon and the countryside beyond. The house has characterful accommodation including an impressive double-height drawing room, with fully glazed wall at the end to maximise the views over the water, as well as three further reception rooms – dining room, sitting room and study - all with doors opening onto the garden and wonderful open fireplaces. The kitchen is fitted with a Rayburn and the ground floor has a bedroom with en suite shower room. Upstairs are four further bedrooms and two bathrooms.
There is a gravelled parking area to the front of the property and a stone building which would make a fine office. The main garden lies to the west of the house, and includes paved terraces and steps leading down between mixed borders to the river.
