An old dairyman’s cottage, once part of an 18th-century farm, Tall Poppy Cottage stands detached with a secluded wrap-around garden in the picturesque Cotswolds hamlet of West Yatton, near historic Castle Combe. Spanning two floors with four bedrooms, one en suite, the house is accessed via a driveway and includes a garage. Let out for twelve years, tenants have eagerly embraced it as a family home, finding it ticks all the boxes. The current owner notes, ‘my predecessors had the property modernised and extended under the guidance of a distinguished local architect who ensured changes were sympathetic to the building's age and style.’ While very liveable, there's scope for development should the new owners wish to make their mark. With a cottagey feel incorporating features such as thick walls, old fireplaces and a bread oven, yet offering ample space, it strikes an ideal balance. With its log burner and smaller rooms creating a cosy atmosphere in winter, complemented by French windows offering seamless indoor-outdoor flow, the owner describes it as 'a house for all seasons.' The peaceful community of West Yatton is within walking distance of Yatton Keynell – a thriving village with amenities like a pub, primary school, shop, and post office. Its proximity to Chippenham and Bath, with rail links to Bristol and London, along with excellent secondary schools and easy access to the M4 motorway, ensures that its rural setting doesn't compromise access to civilisation. Being in the South Cotswolds means there are also many lovely places to visit, from walking routes and National Trust properties to quaint villages and country pubs.
‘It's a unique and deceptively large property – a typically sleepy-looking Cotswold home – offering great character and comfort.’
‘A stand-out feature is how the house and garden interact on sunny days, kept private by substantial hedging and willow trees.’
‘The garden, designed for visual impact and low maintenance, features a beautiful willow tree with seating beneath. Its orientation ensures constant sunshine and shade.’
‘Rooms enjoy views over the garden and nearby fields, reminding one of the rural position.’
‘The large drive offers parking for several cars, and the garage is excellent for storage.’
