2 bed cottage for sale

The Quarry, Brockhampton, Cheltenham, Gloucestershire GL54

Nestling on the first of several south west facing garden terraces, this gorgeous detached two bedroom property occupies a very private south west facing plot of just over a quarter of an acre.

Beautifully presented and recently modernised, the cottage is arranged over two floors and extends to approximately 1,087 square feet. Dating from the 17th Century and Grade II listed, the original part of the cottage retains period features that include stone mullion windows, flagstone floors and a lovely ingle nook fireplace (fitted with a wood burner).

The accommodation briefly comprises a garden room, an open plan kitchen/breakfast room, a cosy sitting room, two double bedrooms, an open landing and a recently fitted family bathroom. Accessed to the side of the house, under the kitchen, there is a useful utility room complete with a gardener's WC.

Complimenting the house and garden and offering a possible conversation opportunity (subject to the necessary consents), there is another pretty and very versatile stone building that was originally a small forge. Currently used as storage, this would make a wonderful home office or potentially ancillary accommodation.

Extremely private, the gardens are a particular feature of the property. Arranged over three main terraces that step from the lane down to the bottom of this small valley, the gardens are landscaped, well planned and beautifully planted.

Driveway parking for the cottage is clearly defined just off the lane. Steps lead from the parking via a pedestrian gate down to the cottage and the first part of garden where the views become more obvious.

Services: Mains electricity and water. Private drainage. Oil fired central heating. Electric car charging point.
