A Rare Opportunity – Unique Five-Bedroom Home with Development Potential

This distinctive property presents a rare opportunity to acquire a spacious five-bedroom home with development potential to the rear, featuring two substantial outbuildings that could be converted (subject to the necessary planning consents).

The main residence showcases a wealth of charming period features, including exposed beams, original brickwork, and a cosy log burner in the lounge—adding character and warmth throughout.
Accommodation is generously proportioned, offering five well-sized bedrooms. The principal bedroom benefits from a walk-in wardrobe and separate WC, while a modern family shower room and built-in storage throughout enhance practicality.

Downstairs, you'll find a stylish kitchen/diner with integrated appliances, a characterful lounge with period detailing, a separate utility room and pantry, and a well-insulated garden room with UPVC windows, perfect for year-round enjoyment.

Externally, the rear gardens are tiered and thoughtfully landscaped with a mix of patio, lawn, and vegetable plots. The property is accessed via a private lane from Chapel Street and includes a private driveway with ample parking for multiple vehicles.

The property is found within level walking distance of local amenities in the village of Cam including Tescos Supermarket, post office, doctors and dentists, local shops, and a selection of primary schools. The A38 and M5 motorway provide excellent commuting links to the larger centres of Bristol, Gloucester and Cheltenham and there is a mainline train station at Box Road, Cam serving Bristol and Gloucester with links to London via Paddington.
