The Property
A charming two-bedroom cottage, sympathetically refurbished and upgraded, nestled in the old part of Chalford Hill and enjoying a generous level garden. This mid-terrace home blends period character with modern improvements, including a new boiler, upgraded electrics, a new bathroom, and a newly fitted traditional shaker-style kitchen opening onto the garden. The main entrance leads into a bright kitchen, complete with a window and stable door providing direct access outside. Shaker cabinets sit beneath oak worktops, complemented by a Belfast sink with brass taps, enhancing the room’s classic appeal. There is an integrated oven and hob, along with open shelving. From the kitchen, a doorway leads into the sitting room, where features include oak flooring, a fireplace with space for a wood-burning stove, and a charming window seat. Stairs rise from here to the first floor. Adjoining the sitting room is an extremely useful utility room, offering practical space for coats and shoes. It also benefits from floor-to-ceiling cupboards with plumbing for a washing machine and additional storage. A step up from the utility room leads to a pretty shower room with a corner enclosure and heated towel rail. On the first floor, a delightful bedroom with pretty floral wallpaper and wall-mounted lighting enjoys views over the garden and across the rooftops to the valley beyond. A further staircase on the first floor landing leads to the top-floor bedroom, which benefits from similar picturesque views. The property is subject to a creeping freehold. A 1951 conveyance makes reference to the neighbouring home having a right to use the well. This well is no longer in use
Outside
Set behind a low-level Cotswold stone wall, the garden is surprisingly generous and predominantly level. Recently seeded, it is expected to mature beautifully over the coming months, transforming into an attractive outdoor space. A pedestrian gate opens onto a pea shingle path, providing access to the main entrance and continuing around to the kitchen’s stable door. To the far end of the garden extends a gravelled seating area. The garden boasts a desirable south west facing aspect. Whilst the property does not have its own private parking, it benefits from close proximity to Silver Street car park.
