Glebe Cottage is a distinguished Grade II thatched house set in extensive, private country gardens in Churchend, Twyning. The property offers generous family accommodation across approximately 2,300 sq ft, including four reception rooms, four well-proportioned bedrooms and a range of useful outbuildings including a 21' oak-framed garage and summer house.
The cottage retains many period features — an oak winding staircase, inglenook fireplace, parquet sitting room floor and bespoke mahogany kitchen with a Lacanche range — and benefited from a full re-thatch and decorative ridge in 2024. The mature gardens are a major asset: large, beautifully stocked with an orchard, productive vegetable beds, woodland edging and multiple quiet corners for privacy.
Practical considerations are clear: the house is Grade II listed, which will restrict alterations and may complicate extensions or redevelopment. Heating is by oil boiler, the cooker uses LPG and the property is exempt from an EPC. Subject to planning consent there may be potential to site an additional dwelling within the grounds, but no application is currently recorded.
This hamlet setting suits buyers seeking historic character, space and rural tranquillity within reach of local schools and routes to Cheltenham and Tewkesbury. It will particularly appeal to families or buyers wanting a substantial country home who are comfortable managing listed-building responsibilities and estate maintenance.
