Description

A stunning individual detached home situated in a tranquil location within the beautiful North Cotswold village of Great Rissington, Russet House is one of a pair of architect-designed properties tucked quietly on a gravelled drive, provided with ample parking for several vehicles and an attached double garage (that might potentially provide scope for further extension subject to the appropriate planning consents).

Occupying a generous plot with a well-stocked secluded rear garden and enjoying some lovely far-reaching views from the first floor, constructed of natural Cotswold stone to a traditional vernacular and finished to a luxurious internal specification, the accommodation is presented in immaculate decorative order throughout, cleverly arranged to provide flexible and sociable living spaces complete with four generous bedrooms and two bathrooms above.

Great Rissington is undoubtedly a golden postcode, comfortably within the catchment for the Cotswold Academy, widely regarded as one of the finest state secondary schools in the country. As a much-loved family home for the last fifteen years, Russet House is serendipitously positioned within a five-minute walk of The Rissington primary school (ranked Outstanding by Ofsted), a pretty country pub (The Lamb Inn), a popular cricket clubhouse and a traditional church, all regular meeting places for this settled and connected community.

“We have really loved the sociable nature of the village, especially when the children were small and could happily walk to friends’ homes or to school, but we have also cherished the ability to disappear back to our hideaway when we needed peace and quiet, ” says the current owner. “It’s the perfect balance!”

The property offers a fantastic opportunity to investment buyers as it has great holiday let potential, due largely to its position within this premium North Cotswold village with Bourton on the Water (approx. 3 miles) and Stow on the Wold (6 miles) both nearby. Tom Burdett from Character Cottages says “As a sleeps ten property, available to let all year round and on the assumption that there are no restrictions such as ‘no pets’ or ‘no children’, I would expect to achieve a gross rental income per annum of £65,000 to £70,000.”

“An absolutely charming property, ideal for multi-generational use, situated in a golden postcode village and bordering two of the most sought-after destinations in the North Cotswolds, this could easily sleep ten using either the study or the dining room as a ground floor bedroom. As such it would be a great year-round income generator in the most lucrative part of the local holiday let marketplace.”

Offered to the market at £735,000, no doubt attracting considerable attention from a wide range of potential buyers, for further information or to book a viewing (strictly by prior appointment) please contact Karen Harrison, Principal Director, at the offices of Fine & Country North Cotswolds on .
