Welcome to Brook House
From members’ clubs to lavish hotels and celebrity hangouts, the Cotswolds is the place to be in the UK – and if you want a piece of the action, this picture-perfect property just hit the market.
Look Inside… Brook House, A £2.85m Cottage In The Cotswolds
This just might be the most gorgeous house in the Cotswolds, and it’s up for sale for the first time in 20 years. Think wisteria-clad stone, leaded windows and lush gardens, plus an absolutely flawless location: the property is perched on the edge of the village green in Lower Slaughter, one of the most beloved areas in the Cotswolds (despite its rather ominous name, which is derived from the Old English for ‘muddy place’).
With views of both the village green and the nearby river, the six-bedroom cottage is as charming as they come. Inside, period features abound: you’ll spot flagstone floors, exposed timbers and spectacular fireplaces. From the handsome entrance hall, you can head into the cosy sitting room (which features a huge stone fireplace) or the conservatory (which is fitted with bespoke bookshelves and a lantern roof, as well as doors opening out onto the garden).
The kitchen boasts a large central island with a breakfast bar, while an adjoining dining room provides further space for entertaining. You’ll also find a study, playroom and utility room on the ground floor.
Upstairs, a self-contained wing provides a large bedroom and ensuite bathroom, with the remaining bedrooms arranged across the first and second floors in a separate part of the house. The breathtaking principal bedroom is complete with exposed beams, a vaulted ceiling and a dressing room which leads into an elegant ensuite bathroom.
Venturing outside, meanwhile, you’ll spot a verdant lawn, walled flower beds and a large patio area – ideal for al fresco dining in the summer. If you’re craving Cotswolds charm, this property certainly fits the bill.
Available through Savills and Butler Sherborn at a guide price of £2.85 million.
