Description

The Old Forge is a c. 17th century dwelling that is habitable but in need of full renovation, including a majority re-thatching. The house has high ceilings and a wealth of historical features throughout. Situated in the heart of the Warwickshire village of Brailes in the Cotswold AONB. The property is placed in over an acre, currently laid out as a garden with orchard and a paddock. Suitable for equestrian use or perhaps as a glamping or tourism site. There may also be the option to build a further dwelling on the plot, subject to required planning permission.

Entering through the front door, we step into a wide high-ceilinged entrance hall that also provides access to the rear garden. To the left, a large reception room with its original stone inglenook fireplace, parquet floor and mullioned windows. There is a further room that could serve as a snug or home office to the rear. There is also access to the garage. Returning to the entrance hall on our right, an ancient oak door opens on to the further central reception room that could serve as a dining room with its quarry tiled floor. There is another notable inglenook fireplace and intricately carved beams. At the far end of the room, a door leads to the kitchen, separate WC and a rear entrance to the garden. The kitchen benefits from separate front access. The stairs are enclosed and found in the central reception room, they provide access to the four double bedrooms on the first floor and the bathroom and WC. Further stairs from the first floor lead to the attic, which could be converted into a fifth bedroom and an additional bathroom.

Attached to the left of the house is a garage. The gardens are laid to lawn and contain mature trees, fruit trees and shrubs. Beyond a post and rail fence, the recently re-sown paddock surrounded by mature trees. It also has vehicular access from the road. Although no planning in place, this could provide the opportunity to construct a further dwelling.

Brailes is an active village with many amenities including a school, pub, butchers, bakers, local shop, hairdressers and garage. Rail connections can be found at Banbury and Moreton-in-Marsh and the M40 is close-by. The local market town of Shipston-on-Stour is a ten minute drive. Despite its picturesque location, there are many useful towns and attractive places to visit within a short drive.
