Grade II listed — restrictions on alterations and specialist maintenance required
Set in the tranquil hamlet of Broughton Poggs, this Grade II listed three-bedroom stone house combines Cotswold character with substantial living space and meticulously landscaped gardens. The main house features an open-plan living area with vaulted ceilings, mezzanine and a warming open fire, while a self-contained one-bedroom annex offers flexible use as guest accommodation, a home office or rental income. A detached garage and additional plot of land add storage and future potential.
The property sits on a very large, private plot with formal walled/parterre gardens, mature specimen planting and a decorative rill. Practicalities include mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, double glazing installed post-2002, Gigaclear broadband availability and garage with storage above. The layout and roofline suggest further accommodation potential in the roof space, subject to permissions.
Important practical points are clear: the house is Grade II listed, which will restrict alterations and require specialist consent and likely higher maintenance costs. Drainage is private (septic) and there is a public footpath crossing the land near the septic tank. The property falls in Council Tax Band F and is in a medium flood-risk area; potential buyers should carry out their own surveys and checks on services and permissions.
This home will suit buyers seeking a characterful, spacious family residence in an affluent rural setting, with the bonus of ancillary accommodation and room to develop. It offers immediate enjoyment for those appreciating mature gardens and period detail, but buyers should be prepared for listed‑building constraints and the ongoing upkeep older stone properties require.
