This three-bedroom semi offers an affordable entry into Coleford with a surprisingly large private garden and off-street parking. A recent Worcester boiler (2024) and uPVC double glazing help with running costs, and the layout includes a handy ground-floor office and separate storage room accessed from the garden.
The house is traditional stone-built (pre-1900) and feels compact throughout — total area about 709 sq ft — so it suits first-time buyers, small families, or investors seeking rental income. The lounge and kitchen are functional but dated in places and would benefit from cosmetic updating to maximise value.
Buyers should note material negatives: the property sits in a high flood-risk zone, is in a deprived area with above-average crime, and the external stone walls are assumed to lack insulation. There is only one bathroom and some rooms are small, so factor potential refurbishment costs into any offer. The home is ex-local authority and freehold.
Location is a genuine strength: walkable to Coleford town centre amenities, shops, cafés, library and schools, with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. The large, tiered rear garden provides private outdoor space and scope for landscaping or extension (subject to consents). Viewing is recommended to appreciate the garden size and overall potential.
