The Property
Facing south with breathtaking valley views, this charming Cotswold stone cottage is nestled in the heart of Old Bussage village and benefits from both a two-storey extension and an attached garage with workshop above. Entry is into a versatile entrance hall/study area, which also houses the boiler. From here, you step into the cosy sitting room, a delightful space featuring exposed Cotswold stone walls, an impressive fireplace with a wood burner, exposed beams, and a wooden floor. A staircase rises to the first floor, while double doors with a step down lead into the spacious kitchen/dining room. A stone mullion window and door open from this room into the conservatory, which enjoys lovely views across the garden and provides seamless access to the outdoor space. The 18′ 4″ kitchen/dining room is surprisingly generous, cleverly divided into two areas: at one end, a comprehensive range of kitchen units and work surfaces, and at the other, a welcoming ining area, making it a fabulous space for entertaining. Upstairs, the main bedroom sits at the rear of the cottage and is fitted with wardrobes, a dressing table, and drawers. The second bedroom, part of the original cottage, boasts a characterful stone mullion window with a window seat, as well as a built-in cupboard with shelving. A door leads up to a charming attic room, featuring exposed A-frame timbers, offering an ideal occasional bedroom or additional living space. The first floor is completed by a bathroom and a separate cloakroom for added convenience. Information: Private parking on site. Heating: Gas central heating plus wood burner. Covenant: Ask agent for further details. Asbestos roof. Ofcom: Broadband Superfast available. Mobile Coverage Outdoors – likely. Indoors: Three and Vodafone limited, O2 likely
Outside
Situated on a raised corner plot, and enclosed by a Cotswold stone boundary wall, adding to its sense of privacy. A pedestrian gate at the front opens onto the garden, while a side path leads down to the lower drive, providing access to the garage and parking area. The front garden enjoys fantastic valley views and features a level lawn, a vegetable plot, and a patio area directly outside the cottage— perfect for outdoor dining or simply soaking in the surroundings. Conveniently located near the front door, the workshop provides additional storage or workspace. It’s believed by the owners that this cottage lies in a conservation area. Agent’s Note: A covenant states the neighbours have the right of use over the drive and needs to contribute towards any maintenance.
