Summary - IVY COTTAGE SAPPERTON CIRENCESTER GL7 6LQ
3 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Characterful renovation project minutes from village school and pub.
Substantial 1,875 sq ft Cotswold stone cottage on 0.25-acre plot
Ivy Cottage is a substantial Cotswold stone home set in the heart of Sapperton, occupying about 0.25 acres of walled, southeast-facing garden with private gravel parking. The L-shaped, multi-storey layout extends to about 1,875 sq ft and includes original features such as an inglenook fireplace with wood-burning stove, exposed beams, stone-flagged floors and upstairs floorboards. Its position on a quiet no-through lane places the primary school, pub and village amenities within easy walking distance.
The property is unmodernised and offered for renovation, presenting clear scope to reconfigure rooms and upgrade services to suit a growing family or a sympathetic restoration project. Bedrooms are arranged across ground and first floors, giving flexible living and potential to create additional reception space or enlarge bathrooms. Mains water and electricity are connected; drainage is via a septic tank and heating is by LPG boiler and radiators (standalone supply).
Important practical points: the cottage needs significant modernisation and improvement works, and currently has an EPC rating of G. Walls are traditional stone with assumed no cavity insulation, and glazing is secondary. Buyers should allow for renovation costs — structural issues are not stated but the age and construction type imply likely upgrades to heating, insulation, electrics and possibly drainage. Cash purchasers are preferred.
For those seeking a characterful country home in a protected, picturesque village, Ivy Cottage offers excellent potential. With careful investment it could become a comfortable family house or an appealing lock-up-and-come-back cottage that retains its historic charm while offering contemporary living standards.
