A beautifully renovated Cotswold stone cottage in the heart of Shilton, Church Cottage combines period character with contemporary finishes. The main house offers three bedrooms and two bathrooms, while a self-contained one-bedroom annexe provides flexible use — guest accommodation, rental income or multi-generational living. Living spaces include a cosy sitting room with inglenook and wood-burning stove, a garden room, study and a well-equipped kitchen with Bosch appliances.
The private south-east facing garden is low-maintenance, laid out with a paved dining patio and lawn bordered by traditional stone walling, with pleasant views toward the village church. Off-street parking and a garage provide convenient vehicle storage for multiple cars. Broadband is fast and the village location is very low crime and highly desirable within the Cotswolds AONB.
Important practical points are stated plainly: heating is provided by an oil boiler and electric storage heaters, and the stone walls are assumed to have no built-in insulation with secondary glazing installed. Council Tax is Band E, and some buyers may wish to consider further insulation or heating upgrades to improve energy efficiency. Overall, this is an attractive, move-in-ready cottage with clear income potential from the annexe and strong appeal for families or those seeking a rural lifestyle.
