An exciting opportunity to acquire a pair of two-bedroom semi-detached cottages, occupying a generous plot in a desirable village setting. Requiring modernisation throughout, the properties offer excellent potential for a variety of uses – whether as a spacious family home, holiday let investment, or dual-occupancy living. Located in a peaceful and well-connected area, the cottages are available with no onward chain, making them an ideal choice for those looking to put their own stamp on a property with fantastic scope and character.
1 Jasmine Cottage, Lydbrook
Step through the part-glazed uPVC front door into a cosy lounge (3.68m x 2.92m / 12'1" x 9'7"), where you’re greeted by a beautiful open fireplace – perfect for those chilly winter evenings. A window to the front adds natural light, and doors lead you through to the dining area and kitchen.
The kitchen (3.15m x 1.75m / 10'4" x 5'9") is compact yet practical, fitted with both wall and base units and finished with rolled edge worktops. There’s space for all the essentials: Cooker, under-counter fridge and freezer, plumbing for a washing machine and even room for a tumble dryer. Twin skylights above bring in lots of natural light, and a door leads to a handy rear corridor – currently used as a utility and storage area, with lighting and power.
The dining room (3.96m x 3.15m / 13'0" x 10'4") has lovely character, with its own feature fireplace and plenty of space for a large table – perfect for hosting family or friends. There’s a glazed uPVC door to the front, a window to match, and stairs that lead to the first-floor landing with useful understairs storage.
Upstairs, the landing connects the two double bedrooms and the bathroom.
The main bedroom (3.81m x 2.87m / 12'6" x 9'5") is a good size, with a window to the front aspect and a built-in cupboard housing the gas boiler.
The second bedroom (3.76m x 2.90m / 12'4" x 9'6") is another double with a built-in storage cupboard and front-facing window – perfect for guests, children, or even a home office.
The bathroom is a real surprise – stretching the full width of the property at 5.94m x 1.09m (19'6" x 3'7"), it offers a full-length bath, WC, pedestal basin, heated towel rail, and windows to both sides plus a skylight for extra natural light. There’s even space for additional storage or vanity units.
2 Jasmine Cottage, Lydbrook
Next door, the second cottage is just as charming – but with a slightly larger footprint.
Step in via the side aspect into a light and spacious kitchen (3.56m x 3.15m / 11'8" x 10'4") with plenty of storage in the form of fitted wall and base units and stylish rolled edge worktops. There’s a built-in electric oven with an induction hob and extractor over, plumbing for a washing machine, space for a fridge/freezer, and a one and a half bowl sink with drainer under the window to the front. The gas combi boiler is neatly wall-mounted.
From here, a door leads through to the inner hallway, which includes understairs storage and access to the living room and bathroom.
The lounge/dining room (5.84m x 3.78m / 19'2" x 12'5") is a wonderful size and filled with charm, thanks to the fireplace with wooden mantle and tiled flooring throughout. With two front-facing windows and a glazed door, it’s a bright and inviting space – ideal for relaxing, entertaining or even working from home.
The bathroom on the ground floor (2.46m x 2.16m / 8'1" x 7'1") is well-appointed, with a p-shaped bath and shower over, pedestal basin, heated towel rail, tiled walls and floor, and a skylight above. There's also access to a rear corridor, again useful for extra storage or even utility needs.
Upstairs, the landing has a window to the rear and gives access to both bedrooms and a separate WC.
The main bedroom (5.33m x 3.15m / 17'6" x 10'4") is an impressively spacious double room with a window overlooking the front – a true sanctuary with room for wardrobes, a dressing table, or a relaxed seating area.
The second bedroom (3.84m x 3.00m / 12'7" x 9'10") is another generous double with a front-facing window – ideal as a guest room, child’s room, or home office.
A separate WC completes the upstairs, fitted with a pedestal handbasin and side window – ideal for family living or guests staying over.
Outside- A set of steps and a gated entrance lead to the front of the cottages, creating a charming and private approach. To the side of 1 Jasmine Cottage, additional stone steps guide you up to the rear gardens, where you'll find a characterful stone outbuilding, a variety of mature trees and shrubs, and naturally planted borders. The elevated levels of the garden offer peaceful seating areas – perfect for enjoying the stunning, far-reaching views across the valley.
Agents note- 1 Jasmine Cottage benefits from a spring-fed water supply and is not connected to mains water. Additionally, the lounge and kitchen areas are believed to be of single-skin construction. Buyers are advised to consult with their financial advisor or mortgage provider regarding the mortgageability of this part of the property.
