Believed to date back to the 1700s, this beautifully presented four-bedroom detached cottage is full of character and charm, while offering a light, modern living environment. Ideally located within walking distance of the centre of Bishops Cleeve, the property combines period features with contemporary comforts.
Stepping into the entrance hallway, you are immediately greeted by original exposed ceiling beams, wattle and daub walls with visible timber framing, and traditional latch key doors leading to the living room, dining room, and kitchen. A staircase rises to the first floor.
The spacious living room (17'3") features windows to two aspects and a striking exposed brick inglenook fireplace, perfect for cosy evenings. The dining room offers a second inglenook fireplace, solid wood flooring, and dual-aspect windows that flood the room with natural light.
The kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with a range of base units topped with granite work surfaces, a ceramic double sink, and benefits from a rear garden view as well as two large Velux windows that create a bright, airy atmosphere. There's an adjoining utility area, a door to an inner hallway with access to a large storage cupboard, a ground floor bathroom, and an external side door.
Upstairs, you'll find four well-proportioned bedrooms, including a generous master bedroom (14') with windows on three sides, creating a bright and tranquil retreat. The main family bathroom includes a roll-top bath, walk-in shower, ceramic basin, and WC.
Outside, the cottage enjoys a beautifully maintained lawned garden to the rear and side, complete with a patio seating area, established planted borders, and gated side access. A recently added garden room with bifold doors opens onto the patio, providing a versatile space for relaxing or entertaining. Behind the garden room is a useful storage area accessible from the driveway.
This unique property offers the rare opportunity to own a historic home with true character, combined with the practicality and style of modern living—all just a short stroll from the amenities of Bishops Cleeve village centre.
