A roomy three-bedroom mid-terrace cottage set on a large plot in The Tufts, Bream. The ground floor offers a generous lounge with exposed beams and a multi-fuel burner, a separate snug that opens to the garden, kitchen/dining room and a practical wet room. Upstairs are three bedrooms and useful loft access. Outside there is a long rear garden, detached garage, separate workshop and off-street parking — rare for a cottage of this type.
This property will suit families or buyers seeking a characterful home with scope to personalise. The stone walls, exposed beams and generous room sizes give strong period character and comfortable, flexible living space. The large garden and outbuildings offer potential for planting, an office/workshop or hobby use, and parking/garage access is convenient for everyday life.
Buyers should note the principal practical points: heating is oil-fired with a boiler and radiators, external stone walls are assumed uninsulated, and double glazing was installed before 2002. The house is ex-local authority; prospective buyers should check for any PRC repairs or related certification and confirm mortgage eligibility if relevant. The sale is chain-free, which can speed a purchase.
Overall this is a spacious, characterful rural cottage in an affluent part of the Forest of Dean with good local amenities and woodland walks nearby. It represents a good opportunity for someone wanting immediate comfortable living and further potential through selective updating and insulation improvements.
