Characterful 2-bed cottage with large south garden backing fields — sold at auction.
Grade II listed black-and-white cottage full of period character
This Grade II listed black-and-white cottage offers characterful living in a quiet hamlet, ideal for first-time buyers or investors seeking a rural base within easy driving distance of Cheltenham and the M5. The house is presented in good condition and benefits from a generous south-facing 60' x 23' rear garden that backs onto fields and woodland, delivering privacy and countryside views.
Inside are two bedrooms, an upstairs bathroom and a cosy living room with a fireplace. The kitchen has a front-to-back layout and a breakfast area that opens toward the garden, making the ground floor light and practical. There is useful loft storage and oil-fired central heating in place.
Important purchase details: the property will be sold via the Modern Method of Auction with a 56-day reservation period. The buyer must pay a non-refundable reservation fee (4.5% of the purchase price, minimum £6,600) and a Buyer Information Pack fee (£349). The listed status may restrict alterations and require specialist consent for works.
Practical negatives to note: heating is oil-fired, there is a neighbour right of way across the rear garden, off-street parking is available only for a fee payable to the estate, and the site has a medium flood risk. These are balanced by freehold tenure, no onward chain and affordable council tax (Band C).
