Cothars Court stands completely on its own on the rural, westerly outskirts of the well served village of Gorsley, some six miles north east of the market town of Ross-on-Wye, with Gloucester and Cheltenham both within approximately half an hour’s drive.

The house itself occupies a wonderful, dominant location and commands stunning south easterly views across its own garden and paddocks.

Originally a 19th-century farmhouse constructed of mellow, golden Gorsley stone, Cothars Court has in recent years been substantially extended to either side and now comprises an elegant, spacious and beautifully appointed five bedroom house with a wonderful ambience, as well as a two-bedroom annexe, 33ft indoor heated pool and leisure complex, studio/second annexe, garaging and workshop.

There is a vast and hugely impressive reception hall off which extend the principal rooms, whilst the magnificent 5ft wide stairway ascends to the galleried landing and bedrooms over.

The accommodation is extraordinarily light, and views from the principal rooms extend across the grounds and adjacent farmland towards May Hill.

The huge 36ft kitchen is “to die for” and not only has a four-oven Aga but also two AEG electric ovens and Rangemaster ceramic hob. A wide, paved approach opens between attractive and substantial double wooden gates.

There are lawned areas either side of the driveway and a selection of trees including a cherry, weeping willow and purple acer.

Approached via wide stone steps from this area is the middle courtyard, again with superb flagstone paving.

Positioned alongside this courtyard is the Old Byre a fine two-bedroom (one en suite) annexe with kitchen/dining room and sitting room.

From the lower courtyard driveway, double wrought iron gates open into one of the superb meadows adjoining the gardens, the land sloping gently away to the mature hedge to the far side.

Viewing is strictly by appointment only.
