The Property
Tucked away in the sought after Cotswold village of Chalford, affording rural views across the village roof tops to the
countryside beyond, lies this semidetached period cottage. The property enjoys a private position with pretty and surprisingly generous gardens as well as a detached studio, ideal for those working from home. The main door opens to a small hall off which doors open to the living space. The sitting room enjoys great character with a Cotswold stone fireplace forming a focal point to the room. A step down leads to dining area with French doors opening to a pretty terrace and sky lights ensuring the room is flooded with light. The kitchen is fitted with shaker style units, oak worktops and a slate tiled floor. The kitchen sink is well positioned for a view of the pretty seating terrace. A connecting hall with room to hang coats leads to a downstairs bathroom with shower over the bath. Two bedrooms are located on the second floor, both of which enjoy elevated wooded views, some built in storage and with the second bedroom also enjoying an outlook of the garden.
Outside
The property can be approached by privately owned steps off Chalford High Street or from a pathway opening to Coppice Hill. Private gardens extend to the front and side of the property and offer great opportunity for the keen gardener. A lawn and paved terrace immediately adjoins the cottage and offers an ideal spot for outside dining whilst taking in the wooded view. The side garden has been divided into a series of terraces and include a pretty gravelled seating area and a raised terrace that is managed as a wildflower meadow to attract wildlife. Sleeper steps provide access to a detached and exceedingly useful studio, currently used as occasional accommodation for guests, but also ideal if working from home. Two sheds offer garden storage. The owner of this property has enjoyed unrestricted parking at the bottom of their steps during their 10 year ownership, however this land does not form part of the title.
