Grade II listed stone cottage full of period character
A rare, central Malmesbury cottage that combines genuine period character with everyday practicality. This Grade II listed stone home offers two double bedrooms, a bespoke kitchen/breakfast room and a comfortable sitting room, all arranged over a compact, well-stored layout (approximately 894 sq ft). French doors open from the sitting room and kitchen onto a sunny west-facing courtyard, ideal for low-maintenance outdoor living.
One standout benefit is the private off-street parking space — unusually convenient for a town-centre historic property. The home is offered chain free, making it an attractive choice for buyers looking to move quickly or downsize without sacrificing proximity to shops, cafés and the Abbey.
Buyers should note the Grade II listed status will restrict changes and may complicate works or extensions; any alteration will require appropriate consents. The plot is small and rooms have modest proportions and some low ceilings, which suit someone seeking characterful, cosy accommodation rather than large, open-plan living. EPC is exempt due to listing; the property is on mains services with gas central heating.
This cottage suits a purchaser who values historic character, town-centre convenience and low-maintenance outdoor space — particularly those downsizing or looking for a lock-up-and-leave base in a very affluent, well-served market town.
