Description
Believed to date back to the late eighteenth century, Glen Cottage is a detached Cotswold stone cottage that has been extended over the years to provide a spacious home full of character.
Entering the property via the front door off of The Street, leads to an entrance hall with the main drawing room off to the left. This drawing room has a triple aspect with a door leading to the terraced garden and an open fireplace with a carved pine surround, next to fitted cupboards. To the right of the entrance hall is the dining room with oak beams, further fitted cupboards and built-in display shelving. A separate study, with many custom-made fitted bookshelves and cupboards, also links the entrance hall with the dining room.
From the dining room, a door leads into the conservatory which has a tiled floor, double doors to outside and a stone feature fireplace. Another door leads from the dining room into the kitchen which is equipped with a range of fitted units, a larder cupboard and an Aga. A door leads from the kitchen into a good sized rear hallway containing a custom-made dresser unit, with doors to the boiler room and cloakroom leading off. The rear hallway also provides external access to the courtyard and the parking area.
Stairs leading from the front entrance hall take you to the long landing corridor from which can be found all four bedrooms, together with both bathrooms one of which has been converted into a shower room. The large master bedroom at the southern end of the property has a triple aspect, along with fitted cupboards, wardrobes and a dressing table. All the remaining bedrooms also have fitted wardrobes.
Outside the property is a single garage with attached workshop/studio. The garden surrounding the property has been terraced and landscaped to provide all year round enjoyment. The gravelled parking area to the rear of the property is accessed via a pair of wooden gates and provides ample parking for several vehicles.
Luckington is a small, picturesque village near the Gloucestershire/Wiltshire border that has an excellent range of facilities for a village of its size, including its own primary school, public house, local shop, children’s activity playground, village hall and church.

The village is ideally placed, just 10-15 minutes away from both J17 and J18 of the M4, and around 20 minutes away from Chippenham rail station that provides direct access to London Paddington in approximately 75 minutes.
