This attractive three-bedroom detached stone cottage blends original early-1800s character with a comprehensive modern renovation. The house feels spacious throughout (approximately 1,281 sq ft) and has been updated with a new kitchen, bathroom, underfloor heating in the dining room and quality fittings — making it move-in ready for families or professionals.
The layout is traditional and well-proportioned: a welcoming hallway, lounge with a feature fireplace and log burner, dining room with French doors to the rear patio, and a newly fitted kitchen with quartz surfaces and integrated appliances. Upstairs provides three comfortable bedrooms and a contemporary family bathroom; bedroom three includes generous built-in wardrobes and rural views.
Outside offers generous, landscaped rear gardens with two patio areas, mature planting and lawn, plus a stone-chipped driveway for around three cars and a detached double garage with power, lighting and bar-room tap. Planning permission has been granted for a two-storey extension, giving clear scope to increase living space and value.
Buyers should note a few practical points: the stone walls are historic and assumed uninsulated, the double glazing install date is unknown, and council tax is above average. Mobile signal is average. Despite these, the property sits in a very low-crime, comfortable neighbourhood with fast broadband and excellent local schools and amenities — a strong family-friendly village location with easy access to Cheltenham.
