DESCRIPTION
A stunning and immaculately presented home, situated in the heart of this beautiful Cotswold village. A stylish glazed entrance opens into a wonderful double height dining room/reception hall which sets the chic, light filled tone that runs throughout the rest of the home. Leading off the dining room is a good sized kitchen and breakfast room with cream units and wooden worktops creating clean lines and a fresh contemporary feel. Integrated oven and appliances make for a practical work space. A fabulous large utility/boot room leads off the kitchen with belfast sink and ample storage, an ideal space for muddy boots and pets, with access to the rear garden. There are two front facing reception rooms, one with a glazed verandah off, the perfect spot for a morning coffee overlooking the east facing front garden with views to the village church's golden spire. There are four good sized double bedrooms, two en-suite plus a spacious family bathroom with bath and shower. Double doors open from the principal suite out to a lovely courtyard and the room has a high level pretty feature window.

DIRECTIONS
From our Minchinhampton office head along West End towards Minchinhampton Common leading into Windmill Road and out to the common. Turn left at the T junction, in the direction of Nailsworth. Take the next left into Box village, turn right towards the village green and Sialcot can be found on the right hand side shortly after the green.
LOCATION
Box is one of the prettiest and most sought after villages in the Minchinhampton area with a community spirit which really is very special. Regular events pull the community together, including 'Box Bar' run fortnightly from the village hall, numerous active clubs including a gardening club and enormously popular Open Garden events. Located just yards from the open expanse of Minchinhampton Common, so popular with walkers, the common provides unrestricted access to over 650 acres, grazed by free-range cattle in the summer months and also host to one of three excellent golf courses. One of the key draws to the area is the excellent choice of schools in both the private and public sector. Beaudesert Park is within easy walking distance of Sialcot and Westonbirt school in nearby Tetbury is circa 20 minutes drive. There are several sought after grammar schools in Stroud, as well as an excellent choice of schools in Gloucester and Cheltenham, all easiy accessible from Box.
Box is less than two hours from London by car or cira 90 minutes from nearby Stroud Station, while Bristol is within commuting distance and the M5 motorway is easily accessible (Junction 13). Minchinhampton is within walking distance from Box and offers excellent amenities, including a popular gastro-pub. Stroud and Cirencester are also conveniently close, both with major Waitrose supermarkets and Stroud also has an award winning Saturday Farmers market. There are lovely walks in the vicinity, including Box woods, owned and cared for by the local community.
