Bridge Cottage is a quintessential 18th‑century stone cottage set in the sought-after village of Filkins. Tucked behind double gates, mature laurel hedging and stone walls, the house offers privacy, a wrap‑around garden and peaceful views over Broadwell Brook and open countryside — ideal for families or downsizers seeking a rural retreat.
Internally the cottage provides cosy, characterful accommodation across approximately 945 sq ft: a sitting room, garden/dining room, kitchen, three bedrooms and a single family bathroom. Room sizes are small to medium, preserving charm but limiting generous living space; the layout suits those who value character over open-plan proportions.
Practical considerations include electric storage heating and traditional stone walls believed to have no insulation, so energy performance will be lower than modern homes and further upgrading may be needed. There is scope to improve heating, insulation and interior finishes — an opportunity for buyers wanting to add value or tailor the house to modern standards.
The location is a strong selling point: quiet village setting with good road and rail links, fast broadband, excellent mobile signal, low crime and easy access to nearby market towns Burford and Lechlade. Freehold tenure, no flood risk and a decent plot with established garden complete the package for anyone seeking a peaceful country home with renovation potential.
