Three-bedroom stone cottage with large garden and private parking in sought-after Avening..
Cotswold stone cottage with panoramic valley views
Bramley Cottage is a characterful Cotswold stone home set in the heart of Avening with far-reaching rural views. The house feels instantly welcoming: a large kitchen/dining room at the heart of the home, a cosy sitting room with a wood burner, and a south-facing garden laid out for easy summer entertaining and productive growing.
This freehold, three-bedroom cottage has been loved and maintained by the current owners since 1996. Practical updates include replacement double glazing and a recently installed boiler. The layout suits family life: two double bedrooms and a family bathroom on the first floor, with a third double bedroom on the top floor that benefits from multiple outlooks across the valley.
Notable practical points are stated up front. Heating is oil-fired (not a community supply) and the property has an EPC rating of E (45). The stone walls are original and appear uninsulated, which may mean higher heating costs than modern homes. There is a single family bathroom only. Despite these factors, the large mature garden, private parking for up to three vehicles, village location and strong local schools deliver clear everyday value.
Bramley Cottage will suit buyers seeking a peaceful village lifestyle with easy access to walking, cycling and local amenities. Buyers wanting to improve energy efficiency or further modernise will find genuine scope to add value, while those preferring a well-maintained, move-in-ready period home will appreciate the replacement glazing, recent boiler and tasteful rustic interiors.
