1 Hawarden Cottages
Guide price £375,000
The Property
Positioned on the sought after slopes of Rodborough Hill, just below the picturesque Rodborough Common and less than a mile from Stroud town centre, Hawarden Cottage is a charming semi detached period home that effortlessly combines character, charm and convenience. The property offers beautifully presented accommodation arranged over two floors, creating a warm and inviting home in this highly desirable location. The current owners have undertaken a sympathetic programme of refurbishment, carefully enhancing the property’s period character while introducing stylish contemporary finishes. Highlights include elegant underfloor heated limestone flooring, a striking oak mantel with an inset wood burning stove, traditional hospital style radiators and a beautifully appointed kitchen. Designed as the heart of the home, the kitchen features a central island with a gas hob and breakfast bar, complemented by a range of fitted wall and base storage units incorporating an integrated oven, dishwasher and washing machine. A charming original bread oven provides a delightful reminder of the cottage’s heritage, while a cupboard houses the Worcester gas-fired boiler and a side door offers convenient external access. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the open plan living space, creating a bright and airy triple aspect room that is perfectly suited to modern living and entertaining. From here, stairs rise to a reception room, currently arranged as a dining room but equally well suited as a home office, reading room or cosy snug. From the sitting room, a separate staircase leads to the first-floor landing, where there are two generously proportioned bedrooms enjoying pleasant front and side aspects. Completing the accommodation is a spacious family bathroom, fitted with both a panelled bath and a separate shower, together with a contemporary heated towel rail. The property is currently assessed for business rates rather than council tax as it is run as a holiday let.
Outside
To the front of the property, a gateway opens onto a shared pathway leading to the front door, where there is a useful storage area. The pathway continues along the side of the cottage and, via a gate, provides access to the detached rear garden. The rear garden is arranged over two distinct areas. The first comprises a paved patio and gravelled seating area, complete with a useful timber-framed shed. Bordered by fragrant lavender and a variety of seasonal planting, this is an ideal space for outdoor dining and entertaining. Beyond, the garden rises gently to a natural area that has been thoughtfully rewilded to encourage local wildlife and enhance biodiversity.
