Oldway Cottage is a handsome late‑18th‑century stone house set in about 3.68 acres of pasture and formal gardens, offering a rare combination of period character and substantial outdoor space. The house has been carefully restored by the current owners and retains handsome fireplaces, bay windows and wooden floors, while a timber extension provides an indoor spa suite with a 12m pool, six‑person hot tub, steam room and log burner — a strong lifestyle asset for family leisure or guest use.
Accommodation is generous and flexible: four bedrooms (one with en suite), two principal reception rooms, a garden room and a useful detached studio with shower room that can provide occasional guest accommodation or a home office. The kitchen is well equipped including an AGA and modern appliances, and practical spaces include a utility area, cloakroom with shower, two garages and multiple terraces that take advantage of far‑reaching rural views.
Practical considerations are straightforward and factual. The property is freehold and in a quiet village location with excellent mobile signal but slow broadband; commuters should check internet options. The indoor pool and spa will require ongoing servicing and running costs; the house sits in Council Tax Band F which will be relatively expensive. For buyers seeking privacy, outdoor space and character, Oldway Cottage presents a rare rural family home with significant lifestyle amenities and scope for modernisation to personal taste.
