This extended detached cottage sits in a semi-rural lane about one mile from Berkeley town centre, offering a spacious family home with an attractive outlook over rear fields. Generous reception space includes a kitchen/breakfast room, separate living and dining rooms, a conservatory and a ground-floor study that could serve as a fifth bedroom. The rear garden extends to roughly 100 feet with a greenhouse, kitchen garden and patio with pergola — ideal for children and informal entertaining.
Upstairs provides four good first-floor bedrooms, the principal with dressing room and en-suite, plus a family bathroom and a third WC. Practical features include an attached garage, off-road parking for four cars, mains gas central heating, and fast fibre broadband — useful for home working or streaming. The property’s period origins and later extensions create characterful rooms with potential to reconfigure or update to personal taste.
Be upfront about running and improvement costs: the home has an Energy Rating of D and solid brick walls (as built) which are likely uninsulated, so loft or wall insulation and some modernisation could improve comfort and efficiency. The house dates from the early 20th century and, while structurally sound on available information, will benefit from routine updating in parts and a higher council tax band (E). Viewing is recommended to appreciate the scale, layout and rural setting.
Location strengths include proximity to local shops, primary school and Berkeley’s amenities, with good road links to the A38 and M5 for commuting. Mobile signal is average but broadband is fast, and there is no recorded flood risk — practical positives for family life and longer-term occupation.
