Description:

This beautiful country house dates originally from the late 17th century, with later additions. Rightly listed Grade II, the house is of great architectural merit and shows a fascinating mix of styles. The main front is Regency, dating from c.1824, with elegant sash windows and a curved porch having a Venetian bow window above. The Regency part of the house has typically elegant rooms with excellent ceiling heights and fine plaster cornices. The drawing room and dining room are on either side of the hall which has a beautiful cantilevered staircase. In addition to good entertaining space, Atcombe Court has well-balanced family living space with a separate sitting room, a study and a well-equipped kitchen/breakfast room.

These include extensive garaging and other outhouses. A pretty Grade II listed detached stone building, known as The School House, provides a large home office on the ground floor with a useful apartment on the first and second floors. The house sits within lovely mature gardens and grounds. The south west façade is covered with a large wisteria and beyond is a large lawn with mixed borders. The vegetable garden includes a 30’ productive asparagus border and two period greenhouses. To the north east is a well-maintained hard tennis court. To the rear of the house are two grass paddocks, edged by mature woodland and to the side of the driveway are two large ponds. Woodchester is an attractive Cotswold village with a primary school, a pub (The Royal Oak) and a post office stores. It is also home to the well-regarded Woodchester Valley Vineyard. Nailsworth.
