Property description

Description The Penthouse occupies the entire top floor of this Grade II Listed historic building situated in the very heart of Tetbury overlooking the famous Gumstool Hill. The Crown is an imposing former coaching inn which in 2019 was sympathetically converted into four exclusive apartments together with two brand new apartments to the rear. The property enjoys a lovely outlook over the town rooftops and benefits from all the convenience of the town centre location just a stone throw from all amenities.

The apartment displays a wealth of charm and character set within the original part of the building and is approached over a magnificent Jacobean staircase benefitting from a private landing exclusively for The Penthouse. Off the landing, there is a useful utility room whilst the entrance hall opens to the principal accommodation comprising a large living room and stylish kitchen/dining room with high vaulted ceiling. The bespoke hand-built kitchen features a ceramic hob with oven, fridge/freezer, dishwasher and pantry cupboard. Accessed from the kitchen there is a large attic space above the living room for storage. There are two double bedrooms and a generous bathroom fitted with both a bath and separate shower unit. The apartment is beautifully presented throughout with the light and airy accommodation extending to about 1,000 sq.ft.

A real rarity for Tetbury town centre, The Penthouse has the benefit of a 20ft garage offering private parking and additional storage. Within the rear courtyard area, there is a pretty communal garden landscaped with gravelled seating areas and planted shrub beds.

The property presents an ideal second home, investment purchase or as a private residence.
