a detached period home, set in 1/4 of an acre, providing immense charm and character and beautiful gardens.

The Property

Tucked away on the edge of Chalford Hill, Frith Cottage is a charming, extended and detached Cotswold stone cottage set within beautifully mature cottage gardens, that in the majority enjoy a south facing aspect. This postcard-worthy home is discreetly positioned within its generous plot and approached via a gravelled pathway that winds through the garden, creating an enchanting first impression. The original front entrance opens into a cosy sitting room, featuring an exposed Cotswold stone fireplace, stone mullion window and an exposed beam — the perfect heart to the home. Stairs rise to the first floor, while doors lead to further ground-floor accommodation. A particular highlight is the impressive drawing room, boasting a tall ceiling, double-aspect mullioned windows, and a fireplace that provides a stunning focal point. To the rear and side of the cottage sits the kitchen/breakfast room, fitted with a range of wall and base units and breakfast bar . This leads into the garden room, a delightful space that connects the kitchen to the sitting room and offers lovely views over the garden — ideal for enjoying the outdoors from the comfort of your home. Also located on the ground floor is a useful utility area, a cloakroom and rear hallway with external access to the rear garden. Upstairs, there are three double bedrooms, two of which benefit from built-in cupboards or eaves storage. These are served by both a shower room and a family bathroom. The property is warmed by gas central heating, (a new boiler was installed in 2021), as well as an open fire and electric fire

Outside

The gardens and grounds at Frith Cottage are a true delight, offering a private and picturesque setting that beautifully complements the charm of the house. Measuring in total 0.26 of an acre, the outdoor space has been thoughtfully landscaped and maturely planted to provide year-round interest. Double gates open onto a private driveway, leading to a single garage and providing additional parking for two cars. A lawned garden, dotted with a variety of trees, shrubs, and flowering plants, stretches out to the front of the plot, creating a welcoming approach to the cottage. Adjacent to the cottage, a paved terrace features a pretty pond and rockery, forming a perfect spot for outdoor dining and entertaining. The front garden boasts a southerly aspect. Further garden areas extend to both the side and rear of the property, adding to the overall sense of space. To the rear of the plot, there is additional outside storage with a generously proportioned shed offering opportunity for the keen gardener or workshop space.
