4 bedroom detached house for sale

A spacious four-bedroom detached home with generous reception rooms, set in a beautiful position within the sought-after village of Blakeney, benefiting from off-road parking, enclosed gardens, and stunning views.

At the rear of the house, a generous garden room/conservatory welcomes you into a light-filled haven that seamlessly bridges indoor and outdoor living. With a tiled floor and charming stable-style door, this is the perfect spot to sit and enjoy a morning coffee, watch the seasons change, or entertain with ease. The space is fitted with UV glass for better temperature control and opens directly onto a sunny patio—making it feel very much like an extension of the garden.

Immediately to the left, a versatile room currently used as a study offers ample space for working from home, but would equally make a lovely snug, hobby room, or a fourth bedroom if needed. It includes a tiled floor and a temperature-controlled storage cupboard, cleverly used by the current owners as a wine cellar.

From the conservatory, you step into the heart of the home—a warm and characterful country kitchen/dining room. This sociable space is designed for both relaxed family life and entertaining, fitted with a range of base and wall cabinets, a NEFF double oven and additional single oven, and a five-ring gas hob with a separate wok burner. A circular stainless steel sink with mixer tap sits below a window that floods the room with light, and there’s plenty of space for an American-style fridge/freezer. Timber beams overhead add a rustic finish, and there’s ample room for a large dining table and chairs, making it the natural gathering point of the home.

A door leads through to a well-equipped utility room, complete with additional cabinetry, worktop space, and a 1.5 bowl stainless steel sink. It’s fully plumbed for a washing machine and has space for a tumble dryer—keeping the practical side of life neatly tucked away. Beyond this lies a stylish and functional wet room, fitted with an overhead shower, wash basin, and WC—ideal for rinsing off after muddy walks or dealing with day-to-day family life.

Back through to the inner hallway, you’re met with real character: original Forest flagstone flooring, a custom-built floor-to-ceiling bookcase with cupboards below, and a beautiful bespoke arched wooden door. This central space gives access to all ground floor areas and leads to a handy lean-to providing excellent storage or potential for further conversion.

The living room is bursting with traditional charm, featuring exposed stonework and a magnificent inglenook fireplace with a multi-fuel stove—perfect for cosy evenings with a book or gathering around with family and friends. Two deep-set windows frame the surrounding greenery and fill the space with gentle light.

Stairs rise to a bright and welcoming first-floor landing, illuminated by a Velux window, and providing access to all three bedrooms and the upstairs facilities.

The principal bedroom is a spacious and serene retreat, elevated to enjoy uninterrupted views over the River Severn, Slimbridge, and the open countryside beyond. Built-in wardrobes, crafted by a local carpenter, offer smart and stylish storage. A private en suite bathroom features a modern bath with overhead shower, low level WC, and countertop basin—all fully tiled in a contemporary style.

Across the landing, bedroom two is a bright and comfortable double with dual aspect windows and access to the loft, making it a flexible option for guests, teenagers, or as a second home office.

Bedroom three is another lovely space, with French doors that open directly onto an upper decking area—perfect for a quiet morning escape or evening wind-down. Whether you imagine it as a bedroom, studio, or creative workspace, it offers light, flexibility, and a wonderful connection to the outdoors.

Completing the upper floor is a separate WC, fitted with a wash basin and ladder-style radiator—offering convenience for family life and guests alike.

Outside- Blackthorn Cottage welcomes you through a gated entrance into a generous driveway with a paved parking and turning area, offering ample space for residents and guests alike. The sense of arrival is both private and practical, perfectly complementing the cottage’s charming exterior.
