Summary - WILLOWDENE 1 DRYBROOK ROAD DRYBROOK GL17 9JJ
2 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Private large garden and village location — ideal for families seeking character and outdoor space.
Two double bedrooms with built-in storage
A charming two-bedroom cottage in the heart of Drybrook, offering characterful living spaces and a generous, private garden — ideal for families who value village life and outdoor space. The living room’s exposed stone wall and wood-burning stove create a cosy hub, while the open-plan kitchen and picture window bring light and garden views into everyday life.
The property sits on a decent plot with off-road parking for two and an enclosed lawn framed by tall evergreens, giving a secure play area and room for outdoor dining or a vegetable patch. Practical features include a useful cellar for storage and a bright conservatory/sun room currently used as a utility and play area.
There are trade-offs to note: the home dates from before 1900 and the stone walls are assumed uninsulated, so thermal performance is limited (EPC rating E). Broadband speeds are slow and the property lies in a high flooding-risk area, which will be a consideration for insurers and future maintenance. The house presents clear potential for energy upgrades and cosmetic modernisation to improve comfort and running costs.
Overall this semi-detached cottage will suit families seeking village community, outdoor life and characterful interiors, who are prepared to invest in insulation and flood-aware mitigation. Nearby schools, countryside walks and local amenities make this a practical family base in the Forest of Dean.
