Set on roughly 0.35 acres in the small hamlet of Gelli, this attractive stone-built semi-detached house offers genuine period character and idyllic river frontage. Sash windows, high ceilings, original joinery and a detached stone outbuilding give the property a strong rural charm and clear scope for improvement.
Internally the house provides three bedrooms, a living room, kitchen and bathroom but requires modernisation throughout; the Worcester oil boiler and radiator system are in place, walls are stone with no assumed insulation and some updating is likely needed. Broadband is very slow and drainage is private, which are important practical considerations in a remote location.
Externally the large plot includes lawns, mature woodland and direct access to the river, plus gated off-street parking. The stone outbuilding/workshop offers storage and potential for conversion subject to planning. The sale is by online auction on 15 October 2025 (guide price £135,000–£140,000) and will be offered chain-free with vacant possession. Buyers should note the buyer administration fee payable on completion and inspect the legal pack prior to bidding.
This property suits someone seeking a character country home with land — buyers comfortable with renovation and rural services, or investors looking to add value. Its remote setting yields peaceful countryside views but brings practical trade-offs: limited broadband speeds, oil heating reliance and private drainage. Interested parties should carry out their own service and planning enquiries.
