Holcombe House is a stunning Grade II listed Georgian country house, set in an elevated position in a beautiful treelined valley on the edge of the delightful Cotswold market town of Minchinhampton. The location is highly peaceful and private, surrounded by the spectacular countryside of the small hamlet of Holcombe Glen with the renowned Weighbridge Inn.
Through the main gates, you sweep through a beautiful woodland glade and round to the front of Holcombe House, a stunning Georgian property built in the 1820's. The property complements its era with wonderfully proportioned rooms and ceiling heights.

The house has been extensively modernised to a high standard throughout, with its grand proportions complemented by a stylish and elegant décor including tiled floors and a gallery staircase.

Improvements also included upgrades to the heating system, including two air source heat pumps, 12 kw solar panels and an electric vehicle charger. The owners have taken to reflect the practicality and contemporary way of living whilst incorporating a luxurious living space ideal for entertaining while being highly energy efficient.
