2 bed 1 bath Detached
Large garden, parking and panoramic countryside outlooks for rural living.
Detached forest stone cottage with period features
Tucked away on Ruardean Hill, this detached Forest stone cottage offers generous gardens and panoramic countryside views over Harrow Hill. Believed to date from the early 1800s, the house retains period character in the sitting and dining rooms and presents a clear opportunity to update finishes and services to modern standards. With no onward chain the property is ready for new owners to start works straightaway.
The ground floor has a compact kitchen, sitting room with stone fireplace, dining room and shower room; two bedrooms sit on the upper level with pleasant outlooks. The site includes off-street parking and a large wood store that could be converted into a double garage (subject to consents). Broadband speeds are reported fast and mobile signal excellent — useful for remote working from a rural setting.
Important practical points: the cottage needs renovation and modernisation throughout. Heating is oil-fired via boiler and radiators, and double glazing is present but the installation date is unknown. Buyers should budget for refurbishment works and potential upgrades to services and insulation. The location suits those seeking a quieter, countryside lifestyle with easy access to local primary and secondary schools and Forest of Dean amenities.
