Set on just over half an acre on the edge of Newent, this detached three-bedroom cottage combines country views with flexible workspace. The house offers an open-plan living area, a contemporary bathroom, and a principal bedroom with a Juliette balcony looking toward May Hill. A converted double garage provides a powered studio with WC and separate storage — ideal for a home business or hobby space with direct access from the large parking area.
The plot is a major asset: extensive lawns, raised decking and a slate patio create multiple alfresco areas and room for landscaping or garaging (subject to planning). Parking for around eight vehicles gives practical convenience for visitors, contractors or multi-car households. Gigaclear fibre and good local services support remote working and connectivity despite the rural location.
Buyers should note practical and regulatory details: heating is oil-fired with a boiler and radiators; sewage is handled by a private septic tank; EPC rating E42; and the property lies in a medium flood-risk area. The house was constructed mid-20th century and, while well-presented, may benefit from ongoing maintenance and further modernization to raise energy performance.
This cottage suits families wanting country living with easy access to Newent’s amenities, and buyers seeking a home-plus-business setup. The sale is offered with no onward chain, enabling a quicker move for purchasers prepared to accept the listed service arrangements and future upgrade work.
