The Property

Lying in the heart of ‘Old Bussage’, this charming detached period cottage occupies an enclosed, elevated corner plot and has been cherished by its current owners. Over time it has been thoughtfully extended and now offers around 1,925 sq. ft. of well-balanced accommodation arranged over two floors. The property can be entered via the formal front door into the hallway, or more informally through the everyday entrance into the breakfast room, which leads directly into the kitchen. The well-proportioned sitting room enjoys French doors opening to the front garden and a central fireplace with woodburner. At the heart of the house, the dining room provides access to both the kitchen and the garden room, as well as housing the staircase. With multiple windows and a characterful Cotswold stone fireplace, this is a particularly inviting space. The garden room is a highlight, featuring tiled flooring, plenty of natural light, and French doors leading out onto the garden. The fitted kitchen is equipped with a gas Aga in addition to a built-in oven and hob. An opening into the breakfast room and a further connecting door create a sociable, open feel, with both rooms enjoying tiled floors. Beyond the breakfast room lie a useful boot room, cloakroom, and a laundry/storage area. Upstairs, the main bedroom is superb, with a vaulted ceiling and a generous dressing room fitted with built-in wardrobes. There are three further bedrooms, one of which is a double with a dual aspect. Another is currently used as a home office. Two bathrooms serve all four bedrooms. Property Information: Ofcom – Mobile coverage: Outdoor good, indoor – variable. Ofcom -Broadband: Superfast available Parking for several vehicles and scope to create further space. Heating: Gas central heating and a wood burning stove. All Mains Services are available.

Outside

Enclosed by a traditional Cotswold stone wall, the property is approached through an opening onto a gravelled parking area. A charming wooden arched pedestrian gate leads into the front garden, which is a true highlight of the home. The gardens are beautifully landscaped, featuring wide flower beds, a variety of trees and shrubs, and a level lawn to the front. Beside the garden room lies a private patio – a sunny, sheltered spot perfect for relaxing while enjoying the farreaching views. On the opposite side, steps rise to the parking area, with a delightful kitchen garden beyond. This includes a greenhouse, shed, and raised beds, ideal for growing flowers, fruit, and vegetables.
