Detached Victorian cottage with period features and extensions
Set back from the lane in the heart of Bisley, this detached Victorian cottage offers generous living space, period character and a large wraparound garden. The house has been extended and retains original features — exposed beams, flagstone and boarded floors, bay windows and fireplaces — providing a strong foundation for a sympathetic refurbishment.
The ground floor includes three reception rooms and a substantial 19'8" kitchen/breakfast with a separate utility, while upstairs provides four bedrooms, a master ensuite and a family bathroom. A gated driveway and plentiful off-street parking sit behind a Cotswold stone wall, and the plot offers privacy with mature trees and lawns around all sides.
Practical essentials are in place: double glazing installed post-2002, mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, fast broadband and freehold tenure. There is no flooding risk and council tax is moderate, making the home suitable for family living in a very affluent village setting with good local schools and easy access to Stroud, Cheltenham and rail links.
The property does need modernisation throughout and some structural fabric is likely uninsulated (stone walls assumed without cavity insulation). There is excellent potential to create a long-term family home or a high-value renovated residence, but buyers should budget for a full programme of updating and consider survey advice on insulation and any hidden repairs.
