Set in the sought-after Cotswold village of North Nibley, The Chimes is a three-bedroom stone cottage that blends period character with practical family living. The house sits in a wonderfully secluded position on a large plot, with raised decking and garden terraces that capture uninterrupted views toward the Tyndale Monument and the escarpment beyond. The living/dining room with exposed stone and a log burner creates a welcoming focal point for colder months.
On the ground floor a modern kitchen and a bright reception room with French doors to the garden provide versatile living and home-working space. Upstairs are two double bedrooms, a single bedroom with built-in storage, and a contemporary family bathroom with a Velux window. Practical extras include a double garage and driveway parking—useful for families or weekend visitors.
Buyers should note the property’s age and traditional construction: built before 1900 with stone walls that are assumed uninsulated, and primary heating via an LPG boiler and radiators. Broadband speeds in the area are reported slow and mobile signal is average, which may affect remote working. There is a single family bathroom only, and while the home is presented well, some buyers may wish to update heating, insulation or electrics to modern standards.
This cottage will suit buyers seeking village life, countryside views and character features, especially families who value outdoor space and proximity to walking routes (the Cotswold Way runs adjacent). It also offers scope for sympathetic improvement to enhance energy efficiency and modern living conveniences without losing its historic charm.
