Character stone cottage with waterfall and almost four acres, offered chain free.
Approaching four acres of paddock and broadleaf woodland
Mork Corner Cottage is a charming three-bedroom stone home set in approaching four acres of paddock and broadleaf woodland on the edge of St Briavels, between the Forest of Dean and the Wye Valley AONB. The garden slopes to a natural stream and small waterfall, creating a rare, private rural setting for wildlife, seasonal bluebells and informal paddock space. The house is presented with many period features, two reception rooms and a detached outbuilding suitable as a studio or home office.
Internally the property is compact (approximately 572 sq ft) but well laid out across about seven rooms, including three comfortable bedrooms and a single family bathroom. The cottage is heated by an oil-fired boiler and radiators; the stone walls are original with no modern cavity insulation assumed, which is typical of properties of this era and may affect running costs. Double glazing is in place, installed before 2002.
Practical considerations include a medium flood risk to the area, oil fuel dependence, and higher local council tax. The plot’s size and wooded character offer clear potential for gardeners, nature lovers or small-scale equestrian use, but any significant development or alteration will need careful planning given the rural location and the property's character. The sale is offered freehold and chain free, allowing a swift move for the right buyer.
This cottage suits buyers seeking a characterful rural retreat with substantial land — families, homeowners wanting space for hobby farming, or those looking for a private country base with scope to personalise. It is less suitable for buyers wanting large modern living spaces or low-maintenance, fully insulated new construction.
