The Old Forge, WinchcombeA Unique and Historic Cottage

The Old Forge is a stunning example of a historic cottage nestled in the heart of Winchcombe. Once a barn belonging to Winchcombe Abbey, and later a working blacksmith’s forge, this beautiful home has been thoughtfully restored and renovated to an exceptional standard, blending character with contemporary comfort.

Tucked away just off Back Lane in the charming cul-de-sac of Tythe Court, the property benefits from two entrances—either via the front double doors from Back Lane or through the rear, where off-street parking is available. The rear garden is low-maintenance and enjoys a sunny aspect, complete with a hot tub—ideal for unwinding in the evenings.

Inside, the open-plan living space is both impressive and inviting. One side features a well-equipped kitchen with ample space for dining and entertaining, while the other provides a cosy living area with double doors opening out to the front garden.

On the first floor, there are two double bedrooms and a practical, modern shower room. The top floor is a true showstopper—vaulted ceilings, exposed original beams, generous storage, and a luxurious copper bath create a standout principal suite, complete with its own en suite bathroom.Discreetly positioned yet centrally located, The Old Forge is a hidden gem in one of the Cotswolds' most sought-after towns.

Currently operating as a successful holiday let, it would also make a charming full-time home.
