The Property
A charming semi-detached Cotswold stone cottage, elevated in the sought-after village of Whiteshill and enjoying far-reaching views across the surrounding landscape. The property offers well-proportioned family accommodation that would now benefit from updating, presenting a wonderful opportunity to create a beautiful country home. A lean-to glazed porch spans the front of the cottage, providing a practical and versatile entrance space ideal for family life. From here, a door opens into the kitchen—a spacious room with ample space for dining and a fireplace forming a focal point at one end. The kitchen is fitted with a range of wall and base units, as well as an integrated under-counter fridge, oven, and hob. A staircase rises from the kitchen to the first floor, while a door leads to the adjoining boot room, which houses the gas boiler. The sitting room is accessed directly from the kitchen and offers a warm, characterful space with two front-facing windows and an open fireplace that adds to its charm. Upstairs, two bedrooms are located on the first floor, both enjoying elevated, far-reaching views. At either end of the landing, staircases rise to two additional attic bedrooms. The principal attic room is particularly impressive, boasting generous proportions, doubleaspect windows, and panoramic views. All bedrooms are served by a family bathroom, and a ground floor shower room with utility area—accessible from the glazed entrance porch which provides additional convenience. Two outbuildings have corrugated roofs that we suspect are made of asbestos. Our vendor believes that the cottage roof tiles may also contain asbestos. The property is accessible by foot only.
Outside
The property is approached on foot via a pathway leading off Kitesnest Lane. A pedestrian gate opens into the side of the plot, where a useful shed and store are positioned. The garden enjoys an impressive open aspect, offering views across the beautiful Cotswold landscape. A central lawn is flanked by well-established flower borders, creating a picturesque setting—perfect for relaxing or entertaining outdoors.
