The Right Wing is a charming Grade II listed Victorian home occupying a central position within this highly regarded village, just a short stroll from the village shop, popular pub and well-regarded primary school. Forming the smaller wing of a landmark period residence, the property enjoys an attractive outlook over its gardens and the surrounding village landscape, while offering a wonderful blend of period elegance and modern comfort. The current owners have carefully enhanced the property to create a beautifully balanced home that is both practical and full of character. Extending to approximately 1,886 sq ft, the accommodation is arranged over three floors. It retains a wealth of original features, including sash windows with shutters, exposed fireplaces, original floorboards and high ceilings, all contributing to its timeless appeal. The layout is versatile and currently arranged as a three bedroom home, although the first-floor reception room could equally serve as a fourth bedroom, guest suite or home office. Set behind a picturesque Cotswold stone wall, a pathway winds through the front garden to the welcoming entrance hall. The elegant sitting room provides a comfortable space to relax, centered on a handsome stone fireplace with a woodburning stove, while large sash windows flood the room with natural light. To the rear, the kitchen/dining room overlooks the garden and provides an excellent setting for everyday family life and entertaining. Bespoke cabinetry, quarry tiled flooring and an adjoining utility room combine practicality with character. The upper floors provide well-proportioned and light-filled accommodation. On the first floor, a generous reception room enjoys attractive views and offers flexibility as an additional bedroom, family room or study. A further bedroom and family bathroom are also located on this floor. The second floor is home to two particularly characterful bedrooms tucked beneath the eaves, one benefiting from an en suite shower room and the other a dressing room, completing this delightful village home.

Gardens and grounds: The property enjoys gardens to both the front and rear, providing a lovely balance of outdoor space for entertaining, gardening and family life. Enclosed by an attractive Cotswold stone wall, the front garden offers a welcoming approach, with a lawn bordered by established planting and a raised terrace perfectly positioned for enjoying the afternoon and evening sun. A substantial Cotswold stone wall, believed to be part of a former building on the site, serves as a distinctive feature and separates the front and rear gardens. To the rear, the garden is principally laid to lawn, offering a peaceful and private setting with ample space for children to play, al fresco dining or further landscaping if desired. Parking for one vehicle is situated behind the property, accessed via a right-of-way across a neighbouring courtyard.
