Cleeve Hill Road, Cleeve

Box Cottage is a beautifully presented two bedroom detached cottage with an additional study/home office, full of character and thoughtfully updated by the current owners. Nestled on the sought-after Cleeve Hill Road, the property enjoys views over protected fields and woodland forming part of a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI)— currently home to a small herd of alpacas — and combines period charm with modern comfort.

The approach to the cottage sets the tone, with a wooden stable door beneath a traditional oak porch and a thoughtfully planted frontage that enhances both privacy and kerb appeal. The garden includes two seating areas and a pond, creating a lovely spot to relax and enjoy the peaceful setting.

Inside, the living room is an inviting space filled with warmth and character, featuring an impressive inglenook fireplace with a log-burning stove, exposed stone walls, and solid oak window seats that highlight the home’s late 18th century heritage.

The kitchen blends traditional style with practicality, fitted with solid wood worktops and limestone flag flooring, plus an integrated oven, induction hob, and space for a dishwasher.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom is a generous double with views across The King’s Wood and Urchin Wood on Cleeve Hill, while the second bedroom is equally well presented and filled with natural light from the double aspect. A third room offers versatility as a study, home office, or occasional guest space, benefitting from the same charming outlook. The shower room has been finished to a high standard, with quality fittings, a large walk-in shower, built-in cabinetry, and a heated towel rail.

To the rear, there is a small, fully enclosed space providing secure storage for logs, bicycles, or garden tools. While compact, it is private and well maintained — ideal for its current use.

The property has a parking space directly outside, with additional on-road parking available along Cleeve Hill Road.

Within just a few minutes’ walk lies Goblin Combe Nature Reserve, a stunning protected landscape of woodland and limestone cliffs — perfect for hiking, dog walks, and enjoying the countryside.

Box Cottage has been fully refurbished within the past six years, offering the charm of a period home with all modern comforts, including new double-glazed windows, gas central heating, and smart heating control for year-round efficiency.

What we love about the property ... We think Box Cottage is a home that captures the essence of semi rural living, offering charm, comfort and a beautiful setting, all wrapped up in a property that is as immaculate as it is inviting!
