A thoughtfully designed new build home on the edge of Ascott-under-Wychwood, sustainably built with far-reaching country views.

Beautifully realised in Cotswold stone, this substantial detached house forms part of a small development of just two homes built by the highly regarded specialist developer, Sobry Beak. The house has been designed with the future in mind, while respecting the natural environment.

The developer is renowned for using local suppliers and materials during construction, while executing exceptional attention to detail. The result is a very stylish home, incorporating a range of premium details into a contemporary house that is still quintessentially ‘Cotswolds’. Natural wood and stone floors are complemented by modern design: the bespoke Hunt kitchen is hand made and hand painted, with a Bertazzoni range cooker and Quooker boiling water tap, while the bath and shower rooms are outfitted with Fired Earth tiles and elegant sanitaryware.

There is a feeling of light and space throughout, afforded by the generous room sizes and high ceilings with large windows framing beautiful views of the surroundings. A wide and welcoming entrance hall leads to an expansive open plan living space at the rear, incorporating a kitchen, dining area and family area, overlooking the garden and terrace. At the front of the house there is a sizeable sitting room and a separate study/snug. Additional rooms include a walk-in pantry, laundry room and cloakroom. Upstairs, the principal suite with dressing room, bedroom and en suite bathroom, in addition to a two further bedrooms (one en suite) and a family bathroom occupy the first floor, with a further two bedrooms and a shower room on the second floor.

Outside

The house is attractively positioned on the far eastern end of the village, adjoining farmland and a number of footpaths and bridleways. Bilberry is set in a corner position, enclosed to the front by a traditional dry stone wall and to the rear by wooden panel fencing for privacy; it has excellent appeal from the road. A sizeable gravel driveway provides space for a number of cars as well as access to a detached double garage with electric vehicle charging point. The rear garden has been attractively landscaped to include a generous terrace accessed by bifold doors, a lawned garden and a number of trees. The far boundary is fenced as post and rail to allow uninterrupted, far-reaching views across the undulating countryside beyond.
