6 bed detached house for sale

Proctor Way, Upper Rissington, Countryside Views, Must See Video GL54

Filkins House is an impressive six double-bedroom detached family home located in the catchment of the Ofsted-rated ‘Outstanding’ Cotswold Secondary School and within commuting distance of London and Oxford. This stunning property sits on the edge of a popular development. It is built in the immediately recognisable Cotswold Stone, has views over the Cotswold countryside, and will make a fantastic family home for anyone lucky enough to become its new owners.

The entrance hall feels spacious right away and leads to the main part of the house: An open-plan kitchen, dining, and family room that runs along the back. This space is perfect for daily family life, from busy breakfasts and homework at the table to entertaining friends with the garden doors open in warm weather, and a log burner for when the winter nights draw in.

The kitchen has lots of storage, plenty of worktop space, and a practical layout that keeps everything close by. The white goods are tucked away in their own utility area, and there’s also enough room for a large dining table, making it a place where people naturally gather, not just cook.

At the front of the house, there’s a separate snug that adds even more flexibility. It can be a cosy sitting room, a playroom for children, or a home office, so everyone can have their own space when needed, or come together to socialise. There’s also a downstairs WC.

Upstairs, the home is spread over two more floors. There are six bedrooms, and their layout gives the house extra flexibility and makes it stand out.

The main bedroom takes up most of the top floor, offering a quiet retreat with its own ensuite and privacy from the rest of the house. Next to it is another large room that could be a dressing room, nursery, home office, or sixth bedroom, so this whole floor feels more like a private suite than just another bedroom.

On the first floor, you’ll find four more bedrooms. Two have their own ensuites, as well as a well-designed family bathroom. This will work especially for older children, frequent guests, or multi-generational families, giving everyone their own space.

Outside, the garden is practical and easy to maintain, with plenty of space for children to play, for summer gatherings, or for relaxing after a long day. The detached double garage offers great storage and secure parking, and the driveway has room for extra cars.

This home brings together spacious rooms, great flexibility, and a fantastic village location. It’s perfect for growing families now and can easily adapt to your needs in the future.
