4 bed semi-detached house for sale

The Rise, Shipton Oliffe GL54

Behind its attractive exterior, the property has been taken back to its shell and completely reimagined. Every aspect of the house has been renewed, including new plumbing, electrics, heating, a new energy-efficient oil-fired boiler, kitchen, bathrooms, flooring, joinery and finishes throughout. The result is a home where the next owner can simply move in and enjoy it, without the uncertainty or expense of carrying out major works themselves.

At the heart of the home is a generous open-plan kitchen, dining and living space. Designed around a central island with doors opening onto the garden, it is a room that naturally lends itself to both everyday family life and entertaining. A separate utility room, boot room and well-planned storage add to the practicality of the layout.

The accommodation extends to approximately 1,363 sq ft and is arranged over two floors. The principal bedroom occupies much of the first floor, with a dressing area and en-suite shower room. Three further bedrooms on the ground floor provide flexibility for family life, guests or those working from home, complemented by a well-appointed family bathroom.

Outside, the gardens provide space to enjoy throughout the seasons, whether relaxing on the terrace, entertaining friends or simply appreciating the peaceful surroundings. The gardens have been designed to complement the house, offering privacy while remaining easy to maintain.

One of the defining features of living at 3 The Rise is the village itself. Shipton Oliffe is known for its welcoming community and strong village spirit, something that is becoming increasingly difficult to find. Directly opposite the house, across the village green, the recently refurbished Reading Room has become the social heart of the village, hosting a varied programme of events throughout the year. From coffee mornings, pop-up pubs and film nights to yoga, Pilates, walking and cycling groups, arts and crafts, gardening clubs and seasonal celebrations, there are countless opportunities to become involved. Whether you're new to the area or simply looking for a greater sense of community, it is a village where neighbours know one another and community life genuinely thrives.

Surrounded by rolling Cotswold countryside, yet within easy reach of Cheltenham, Bourton-on-the-Water, Stow-on-the-Wold and the A40, Shipton Oliffe offers the best of village living without compromising on convenience.

For those looking for a home where the hard work has already been done, and where the setting is every bit as appealing as the property itself, 3 The Rise presents an opportunity to settle into one of the Cotswolds' most desirable village communities from day one.

Homes in villages such as Shipton Oliffe are rarely defined by the house alone. They are about the lifestyle, the community and the opportunity to become part of somewhere that people are proud to call home.
