Key Features
Location
The village of Chaceley lies five miles from Tewkesbury across the River Severn and is a quintessential English village, based around the Grade II listed St John the Baptist Church and the village hall. The area is well regarded for its fertile farmland and is very popular as a satellite village, with its inhabitants working in the nearby towns and cities of Tewkesbury, Gloucester and Cheltenham. Chaceley sits on the banks of the River Severn which was once a busy thoroughfare for commercial vessels shipping goods between the ports of Bristol and Gloucester. The river is still busy with a number of leisure boats and sightseeing trips, especially throughout the summer months, and the Yew Tree’s moorings mean it can benefit from these.
The Yew Tree is situated in Chaceley Stock at the edge of the village, on the banks of the River Severn, adjacent to Avon Sailing Club. It is a substantial, detached, two storey property which appears to be constructed of both brick and block, having mostly rendered and colourwashed elevations. It has been extended considerably over the years and is now an impressive property enjoying an excellent riverside location.
