Sunnyside is a quintessential Cotswold stone cottage in the heart of Box, offering characterful living in a highly sought-after village. The sitting room with a wood-burning stove and a separate dining room create comfortable, sociable ground-floor living, while the kitchen and utility add practical day-to-day convenience. Two good bedrooms and a family bathroom sit on the first floor, making the house well suited to a small family or couple.
The property sits on a notably large plot with a well-planted cottage garden, pond and lawned areas that catch the sun from the south-facing escarpment. Unusually for cottages in the area it has a newer detached garage and dedicated parking space (plus shared parking), which greatly improves usability and storage options.
There is clear scope to add value by converting the two connecting attic spaces; a buyer could install a staircase from the landing to create extra accommodation, subject to permissions. The house has been well presented and benefits from double glazing and mains gas central heating, but as a pre-1900 stone-built cottage the walls are assumed to have no built-in insulation and any buyer should plan for ongoing maintenance typical of period properties.
Practical points to note: access for maintenance requires use of a rear snicket with the neighbour’s permission (24 hours’ notice) and the garage sits across the lane as the furthest in the block. The property is freehold, not at flood risk, in a very affluent area with good local schools and fast connections from nearby Stroud to London.
