Hastings Hill, Churchill

Maxwell Douglas Estate Agents are delighted to offer for sale Hastings Hill House, a charming Grade II listed period residence and the birthplace of Warren Hastings, first Governor General of India, commanding a superb position in the highly sought-after village of Churchill.

The accommodation is rich in history and character. A welcoming entrance porch opens into a delightful sitting room featuring an impressive inglenook fireplace, flagstone flooring, window seat with shutters and access to a cellar with a striking barrelled ceiling. The sitting room in turn leads to a charming dining room, also benefitting from a fireplace along with a window seat and shutters. The kitchen/breakfast room is beautifully arranged in a classic shaker style with quartz worktops, attractive tiled flooring and dual aspect windows providing excellent natural light. Beyond the kitchen is a highly practical utility room, rear hall and cloakroom. Upstairs, the first floor comprises two light and airy double bedrooms and a third large room that has been designed as a bathroom but could also make an attractive third bedroom. The second floor offers a large open landing featuring A-frames currently used as a bedroom/play space and a generous bathroom with built-in airing cupboard.

Externally, the property enjoys a delightful front garden bordered by a traditional Cotswold dry stone wall and planted with mature shrubs, flower borders and lawned areas. To the rear, slightly detached from the house and accessed via a five bar gate, lies an additional expanse of land incorporating an open fronted barn/garage and a truly wonderful mature country garden. Filled with meandering pathways, hidden seating areas and established planting, it offers a peaceful and inviting outdoor setting.

Whilst Hastings Hill House would now benefit from a degree of modernisation, it presents a fabulous opportunity for a purchaser to create a truly exceptional village home. The property is also offered to the market with the added benefit of no onward chain.
