A larger-than-average three-bedroom cottage arranged around attractive communal gardens in the heart of Fairford. Designed for residents aged 55+, the house has been upgraded by the current owner and offers generous room sizes, a conservatory, and a separate garage — an unusually spacious retirement home.
Finished to a largely modern specification, notable upgrades include a refitted kitchen with integrated AEG appliances, refitted shower room and bathroom, underfloor heating to several rooms and a useful utility room with water softener. Practical additions such as built-in wardrobes, a chair lift to the first floor and double glazing add comfort and accessibility.
Important practical points: the property is electrically heated via storage/convector heaters and uses electricity as its main fuel, the EPC is rated D, and there is an annual service charge of £2,874.16 for communal maintenance. Council Tax sits at Band F (expensive) and the location has a medium flood risk — both factors to consider for long-term running costs and insurance.
Chain free and freehold, this cottage will particularly suit downsizers and retirees who want roomy, low-external-maintenance living in a peaceful Cotswold market town, while still being within easy reach of local amenities and walks along the River Coln. Some buyers may wish to consider further energy-efficiency improvements given the electric heating and EPC rating.
