2 bedroom end of terrace house for sale

Quintessential Cotswold cottage in an idyllic rural setting

Description

3 The Dyers is an end terrace cottage, one of five perfectly nestled away on the edge of the village on a tributary of the Windrush river. Dating back to around 1750, the cottage is constructed in the lovely yellow natural Cotswold stone and offers accommodation over three floors. In 2022 the current owners renovated the cottage throughout including a new kitchen, loft insulation, a new boiler and central heating system and updated the electrics. The property has been redecorated throughout in a subtle palette of colours.

A grassy track leads from the parking area servicing the five cottages to the front door. The ground floor reception space incorporates a kitchen and sitting area with windows to front and rear overlooking the garden. From the sitting area a staircase leads up to the first floor with a bedroom to the front and bathroom to the rear.

A landing and steep staircase leads to the second, attic bedroom with exposed timbers, window to the front and a lovely outlook, and a deep airing/storage cupboard.
Adjoining the cottage is a single storey stone outbuilding with plumbing for a washing machine and which may be suitable for extending the cottage, subject to the necessary consents.

The gardens lie to the rear of the property with a small brook with bridge over, a timber storage shed, and delightful views over the adjoining Guiting Grange Estate.

The sale of 3 The Dyers represents a rare opportunity to purchase a cottage in the village as properties infrequently come up for sale within Guiting Power as a large proportion are owned by the Guiting Manor Trust.
