Cirencester - Cirencester is an historic Roman town which became an important centre for the wool trade in medieval times. Today it is a thriving market town. The property occupies a desirable situation. Shopping in Cirencester is highly regarded, off the main streets there are many interesting back lanes with specialist shops, particularly Black Jack Street. On the outskirts of the town are two supermarkets (Waitrose and Tesco) as well as a Hospital. A new Leisure Centre was opened in 2006 and one of the oldest open-air pools in the country is a short walk. A gate to the 2500 acre Cirencester Park, belonging to the Bathurst family and open during the day, is also a short walk off Cecily Hill. Many concerts are given in the Church and there are talented local choirs and amateur dramatic groups. Within about half an hour’s drive are the towns of Cheltenham, Gloucester and Swindon. Bath, Oxford and Stratford are about an hour by car, with superb cultural and recreational facilities. Private and State schools in the area are excellent, such as Beaudesert, Deer Park, Kingshill, Prior Park, Rendcomb and Hatherop Castle.
Kemble airfield has facilities for small aircraft and Aston Down is a gliding centre. Cirencester has had a golf course for over 100 years and others are at Minchinhampton, Burford and Naunton. Superb horse racing takes place at Cheltenham, as well as at meetings at Newbury and Bath. Sailing is available on the lakes between Cirencester and Swindon.
Amenities - Chester Street is in a much sought-after location due to its proximity to the town centre which is within walking distance. Cirencester is deservedly known as the “Capital of the Cotswolds” and is extremely accessible, being at the intersection of the Fosse Way and Ermin Way. The latter provides virtual dual carriage access to both the M4 at Swindon and the M5 at Gloucester/Cheltenham. There is a fast and regular Great Western Train service from Kemble (about 3.5 miles) to London Paddington which takes approximately 75 minutes with stops at Swindon, Didcot and Reading.’
Outside - 55 Chester Street has the perfect established and secluded town garden, mainly laid to an immaculate lawn there is a selection of box hedging along the side boundary in front of an attractive period red brick wall. Box hedging further divides the garden to the rear and gives access to an established outside dining/entertaining area taking full advantage of the sun in the summer months. At the rear of the garden there is also a large workshop/storage shed a useful feature. The whole garden is fully enclosed creating a safe and secure area ideal for small animals or young children with a high degree of seclusion.
