Lavender Cottage is a handsome detached stone property set in the heart of Avening, offering about 1,679 sq ft of well-configured living over three floors plus a useful cellar. The house combines period character — sash windows, exposed beams and a focal wood-burning fireplace — with sympathetic modern additions including a vaulted conservatory-style dining extension, modern kitchen and two bathrooms. The layout suits family life and home-working: three double bedrooms, an upstairs studio/home office and a ground-floor social kitchen/dining room that opens to the garden.
Outside, the south-westerly facing garden and generous paved terrace create a sunny, private entertaining space directly accessible from the dining room. A gravel driveway provides parking for up to three vehicles and there is a timber store. The village location delivers quiet, rural living with local amenities, a primary school rated Good, and easy access to Tetbury, Nailsworth and nearby rail links.
Practical points are clear and factual: the house is freehold and offered chain free, connected to mains services, and has mains gas central heating. The property is older (constructed before 1900) with stone walls likely uninsulated and double glazing fitted before 2002; these factors and an EPC rating of E(53) indicate potential for energy-improvement works. Council tax is band E, and while maintained sympathetically, the cottage will suit buyers expecting to budget for ongoing upkeep typical of period stone homes.
