Bay Tree Cottage is a spacious, characterful Cotswold stone house on the edge of the Chavenage Estate, arranged over two floors with substantial gardens of about 0.5 acre. The house combines period features — exposed beams, stone walls, an Aga and a wood-burning stove — with practical additions such as new double glazing, a retiled roof and direct garage access. The main house provides generous reception space and a principal bedroom with en suite and dressing area. A sizeable attached annexe/flat sits above the double garage, currently self-contained and in need of updating or reintegration into the main house.
Outdoor space is a standout: a south-facing terrace, mature specimen trees, flower borders, a well, and an attractive Cotswold stone wall along two boundaries. There is a large timber-framed outbuilding with water and electricity suitable as a home office or workshop. The property sits in a quiet hamlet/edge-of-town location with easy walking access into Tetbury (about 1.1 miles) and excellent local schools, countryside walks and village amenities close by.
Practicalities and known issues are straightforward. The annexe requires renovation; the property uses a private water supply and a septic (sceptic) waste system rather than mains sewerage. Council tax is described as quite expensive. Overall the house offers considerable potential for a growing family or for someone seeking a spacious country home with scope to update and personalise.
