Property Details
Description
Dating from the 1880’s, Cotteswold is an imposing ‘Gothic’ inspired detached stone Victorian villa of fantastic proportions, with accommodation laid out over four floors. Retaining a large number of period features such as deep skirting’s, tall moulded ceilings, working shutters and stone mullioned windows, the property has fallen into disrepair and now requires a sympathetic and substantial programme of refurbishment. Once complete, Cotteswold has the potential to be one of the finest family homes in the area.
