Set in a peaceful tucked-away spot on the edge of Ashton Keynes, this Cotswold stone cottage offers genuine village charm and substantial private gardens. Originally two cottages and now combined, the house provides spacious, characterful rooms with exposed timbers, a cosy sitting room and a glazed conservatory with direct garden outlooks.
The home is chain free and sits on a decent plot with a gravel driveway, garage/workshop, stone store and woodshed — practical outbuildings that add real utility. Two generous double bedrooms upstairs are served by a family bathroom and an en-suite shower room, making the layout well suited to family life or part-time rural living.
The property requires updating and modernisation in places: the EPC rating is E (39), heating is oil-fired via boiler and radiators, and walls are original solid brick with no known insulation. Broadband speeds and mobile signal are limited locally, and parts of the house will benefit from refurbishment to improve energy efficiency and modern comfort.
For buyers seeking a period country cottage with scope to improve, this home offers excellent potential to create a comfortable, efficient Cotswold retreat. The location benefits from very low local crime, good nearby primary schools and attractive rural views — a rare combination for village-edge living.
