A handsome Grade II* Georgian house dating from 1720, Dover House combines preserved period detail with a recent sympathetic renovation. Across almost 2,000 sq ft, high ceilings, original sash windows, stone fireplaces and oak floors create an atmospheric family home with modern comforts such as deVol kitchen fittings, integrated appliances, underfloor heating and a wood burner.
Set in the historic wool town of Painswick and backing onto rolling valley views, the property benefits from a south-facing, partially walled garden with terrace, productive fruit trees and vegetable beds. The layout includes a generous sitting room, formal dining room, fitted cellar storage and four bedrooms across the upper floors, offering comfortable family living and excellent entertaining spaces.
Important practical points are clear: the listed status preserves character but will complicate future alterations and may require listed building consents. Broadband speeds are slow in the immediate area and council tax sits at an elevated band. Overall, this is a high-quality, character-rich home for buyers seeking Cotswold provenance with modernised interiors and a substantial plot.
This will appeal to families who value village life, strong local schools, and easy access to countryside walking, while buyers seeking major structural changes should be aware of planning constraints linked to the building’s listed status.
