Situated in the heart of the much sought after Cotswolds village of Painswick known locally as the Queen of the Cotswolds, The Bakery dates back to the 1600s and has been beautifully and stylishly renovated to the highest standard by the current owners. The property was originally part of the main focus of village life, housing the bake and brew house and dairy operation buildings. Spanning over 7000 square feet and occupying an exceptional position in the heart of the village, it offers a one of a kind opportunity to own this landmark property and benefit from a multi-faceted investment
opportunity.
