full of charm and period detail, this extended grade ii listed cotswold stone home provides well-balanced living space, established gardens, private parking, and a garage.

The Property

Despite its charming name, Old Spot Cottage offers the scale and elegance more akin to a house than a traditional cottage. Extending to approximately 2,217 sq ft, this beautifully reimagined end-of-terrace period home exudes both character and sophistication, blending historic features with modern comfort. Set behind a classic Cotswold stone façade, the grade II listed property opens into a wide flagstone hallway, where a broad timber staircase sets the tone for the rest of the house. Original features have been lovingly retained and enhanced throughout, including exposed timbers, sash windows with shutters, deep window seats, and wooden floors. Two striking fireplaces—one in exposed Cotswold stone with a wood-burning stove inset—create inviting focal points in the main reception rooms. The heart of the home is a stunning open-plan kitchen and breakfast area, designed to maximise light and space. A dramatic atrium ceiling and full-width bi-fold doors lead to an enclosed courtyard garden, ideal for outdoor entertaining. A small utility room and cloakroom are cleverly positioned just off this space. Upstairs, the generous proportions continue with four double bedrooms, complemented by a sleek family bathroom and an additional separate shower room. Thanks to impressive ceiling heights and well-proportioned rooms, the house feels unexpectedly grand and airy for a home of its age. This is a home where heritage and modern living come together, offers an exceptional lifestyle in a characterfilled setting. Property Information: Ofcom: Broadband – Superfast available. Mobile Coverage: Outdoor – Likely, Indoor Limited except EE states likely. Heating: Gas Central Heating, two wood burners. Parking: Two spaces within the title plan.

Outside

The property is fronted by traditional railings with a central gate leading to the entrance. Next to the house is a parking space with an electric vehicle charging point and a wooden gate to the stone-walled Cotswold courtyard, which connects to the kitchen/breakfast room. From the hall, a door opens onto a landscaped, terraced rear courtyard—ideal for entertaining—with steps up to a further patio. The rear garden is mainly lawn, offering a flexible space with pleasant views, currently used as a children’s play area and featuring two wooden sheds. Parking and garage access is at the garden’s rear. Please ask the agent for details of any rights, covenants, or easements related to the property

Situation

Rooksmoor is a small, characterful hamlet nestled between the popular market towns of Stroud and Nailsworth, offering a scenic Cotswold setting with easy access to the surrounding countryside. Set within a designated conservation area, the hamlet retains a strong sense of historical charm, with roots in the cloth industry and an attractive collection of traditional Cotswold stone houses. The A46 runs through the bottom of the valley, providing excellent transport links and swift access to Stroud—with its mainline station, award-winning farmers’ market and independent shops—and to the vibrant town of Nailsworth, known for its boutiques, cafés and amenities. The area is well served by a range of wellregarded state and independent schools, making it a desirable spot for families. Local highlights include the nearby Old Fleece pub within walking distance, and a cycle path just across the A46, further enhancing its lifestyle appeal.
