Description
Drovers Cottage is a semi-detached traditional stone period cottage located in the Cotswold market town of Tetbury within easy reach of an array of amenities. The cottage occupies a southerly elevated position within West Street, one of Tetbury's most historical lanes, overlooking the magnificent Cutwell valley below. The cottage has been sympathetically upgraded by the current owner creating a lovely home retaining much character and filled with natural light from the southerly aspect. The town centre location, outstanding views and character features all contribute to the cottage being a favourable holiday home as well as a primary residence.
The accommodation spans over three floors extending in all to around 1,214 sq.ft. Entered from the side, the kitchen has been refitted with reclaimed solid units and incorporate a fridge/freezer, dishwasher, oven, gas hob and plumbing for a washing machine. A former serving hatch has created a breakfast bar area from the reception room. The large reception room offers a cosy living area beside the wood-burning stove, whilst the dining area benefits from large windows and a rear door leading out to the garden and takes full advantage of the open views. On the first floor, there are two bedrooms including the main bedroom which is dual-aspect overlooking the valley complete with fitted wardrobes. The bathroom has been refitted with a stylish roll-top bath and a rainfall shower over. The versatile top floor offers a third bedroom accompanied by an en-suite shower room. The top floor could equally be utilised as a hobby room/home office.
The south-facing garden is an enchanting landscaped area of three terraces all benefitting from the lovely view. The top terrace located immediately off the cottage is laid as a sun terrace and provides a lovely alfresco dining area to enjoy. Steps lead down to a curved lawned terrace and continue down to the bottom terrace which has been utilised as a wildlife garden complete with a pond and timber shed. On street parking is available outside the cottage on West Street while West Street carpark offers the opportunity for a parking permit.
