Description

A Rare and Enchanting Grade II Listed Cottage in a Tucked-Away Village Setting

**MOTIVATED SELLERS - OPEN TO OFFERS - VIEWINGS ENCOURAGED - NO ONWARD CHAIN**

Nestled at the end of a peaceful close just off the village high street, this captivating four-bedroom detached cottage is steeped in history, dating back to the 1600s. Once two separate dwellings, this remarkable home has been thoughtfully and sympathetically renovated to an exceptional standard, blending its centuries-old character with modern comforts.

Cherished by the same family for over 50 years, the cottage exudes warmth and charm, with beautifully restored period features and a welcoming atmosphere throughout. The spacious yet cozy interiors offer versatile living, while the generous front garden—screened by mature Laurels and wooden fencing—provides an unexpected sense of seclusion.

Practicality meets character with ample driveway parking, a single garage, and a meticulously maintained layout that ensures convenience without compromising on the home’s rich heritage. Whether you're drawn to its fascinating past, its beautifully modernized interiors, or its idyllic setting, this is a rare opportunity to own a piece of history in a sought-after village location.

Blunsdon village offers a strong sense of community, featuring a locally run shop, two welcoming pubs, and variety of facilities at the Blunsdon House Hotel. The village is home to St. Leonard’s CE Primary School, with convenient bus services to Warneford Secondary School in Highworth and Farmor’s Secondary School and Sixth Form in Fairford.

Surrounded by beautiful green spaces, Blunsdon is perfect for those who love the outdoors, offering wonderful dog walks, scenic countryside trails, and popular cycle routes. Despite its peaceful setting, the village is well-connected, with excellent transport links via the A419 providing easy access to the M5 and M4. Swindon’s railway and bus stations offer regular services to London in under an hour, making commuting a breeze. For shopping and everyday essentials, the Orbital Shopping Centre is just a short 10-minute drive away, offering a range of high-street stores, supermarkets, and dining options.

Blunsdon truly offers the best of both worlds—a tranquil village lifestyle with superb connectivity and amenities close at hand.
