One Description Broadwell House is a superb example of a classical Grade II Listed Cotswold village house, dating from the late 1700’s with Georgian proportions. Extended, remodelled and sympathetically renovated throughout by the current owners to a high standard, it now offers elegant and generous accommodation. Constructed of Cotswold stone with a combination of stone mullioned leaded light and sash windows, the living space is beautifully presented with great style suited to both formal entertaining and more relaxed family living.

The property has been re-plumbed and re-wired, with a 3-phase wiring system and lighting designed by John Cullen with under floor heating to some of the rooms. There is a Sonos sound system allowing control of music to the principal rooms and Pool House.

The main house is complimented by a charming 3 bedroom cottage which is currently rented and would also serve well as a holiday let or to accommodate a relative. In addition, there is a converted two bedroom annexe and a separate office. A handsome Cotswold barn, hard tennis court, garage and a swimming pool with pool house.

A particular feature of Broadwell House are the beautifully designed gardens and grounds which can be enjoyed from all of the rooms with enchanting vistas in all directions. Maintained and enhanced over the years these plantsman’s gardens provide a magnificent backdrop to this very special property.

Seven Gardens and Grounds Originally established and landscaped in the 1930’s, the new owner of Broadwell House will inherit a legacy from gardeners who over the generations have continued to evolve and nurture this extremely special garden into arguably one of the most enchanting in the Cotswolds.

Beautifully designed to incorporate both formal landscaping and more relaxed areas which flow seamlessly into adjoining countryside offering a wonderful outlook and views. The gardens have been designed into “rooms” all offering unique designs and aspects. An impressive collection of specimen trees and shrubs have been nurtured over the years including Ginkgo Biloba, Medlar, Acers, Prunus, Fig and Magnolias with an extensive bulb assortment providing wonderful spring and winter displays. Mature seasonal planting provide all year colour including Euphorbia, an extensive Rose collection, Geraniums and Hydrangeas while Wisteria, Pyracantha and Jasmine adorn the house itself.
