This well-presented two-bedroom cottage blends period character with practical modern upgrades, ideal for a first-time buyer seeking a move-ready, characterful home. Exposed beams, an inglenook fireplace with woodburner and original stone and wooden floors give the house immediate charm, while double glazing and gas central heating offer everyday comfort. The attic conversion provides a flexible second bedroom with study space.
Outside, a manageable rear garden with patio and lawn sits alongside a tandem garage — a rare convenience in village settings — and Gigaclear fibre delivers fast broadband for home working. The property sits in an affluent, low-crime village with good access to the A38 and nearby Cam and Dursley train station, making commutes to Gloucester, Cheltenham and Bristol straightforward.
Buyers should note some of the cottage’s traditional construction: walls are sandstone/limestone with no known insulation (assumed), so improving thermal performance may be desirable. The living room has a low ceiling height typical of period cottages, and the plot is small, so outdoor space is modest rather than expansive.
Overall, this freehold terraced cottage offers a rare combination of period character, useful modern upgrades and practical parking — well suited to first-time buyers or couples who value character, village life and good transport links.
