A Grade II listed Cotswold stone cottage offering characterful period features and a generous rear garden with open countryside views. The house retains an attractive exposed stone fireplace and traditional proportions, ideal for someone who values historic charm and village life. It is offered with no onward chain, so a buyer can move forward quickly.
The property requires comprehensive updating throughout, presenting a clear renovation opportunity to create a comfortable, bespoke home. The layout comprises a sitting room, kitchen with adjacent utility, three double bedrooms and a ground-floor bathroom — practical for family living but limited to a single bathroom. Central heating is oil-fired and services are understood to be mains connected.
Buyers should note the property’s listed status and a flying freehold linked to the adjoining cottage; these will restrict some works and can complicate modernisation. There is also a restrictive covenant requiring occupation as a single private dwelling. Conversely, the very large rear garden, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband add clear lifestyle and connectivity benefits in this affluent, low-crime rural setting.
This cottage will suit a buyer seeking period character and significant scope to improve — families looking for three-bedroom accommodation in a peaceful village or purchasers wanting a sympathetic renovation project in a desirable Wiltshire location. Pricing reflects both the charm and the need for investment.
