Description
Tucked away in the heart of the vibrant market town of Highworth, on the edge of the Cotswolds, this charming three-bedroom cottage offers a rare opportunity to own a home steeped in history. Believed to date back centuries, the property is full of character and original quirks that reflect its heritage, with its uneven lines, period features and unique layout all adding to its undeniable charm.
At its heart lies a generous open-plan kitchen/breakfast room, recently upgraded with elegant two-tone shaker-style cabinetry and a sociable central island - ideal for cooking, entertaining or gathering with family. The adjoining conservatory fills the space with natural light and opens onto the low-maintenance rear garden, creating a lovely connection between inside and out.
Buyers should note that the conservatory is in need of repair or replacement, with further information available during a viewing. The cosy living room provides the perfect retreat, centred around a characterful fireplace for relaxing evenings.
The home has been thoughtfully updated in places, with a new kitchen, stylish family bathroom featuring a traditional roll-top bath and shiplap panelling, complemented by a practical downstairs shower room/utility.
Upstairs are two generous double bedrooms and a versatile third bedroom, ideal as a nursery, dressing room or home office.
Outside, the property benefits from private driveway parking and gated side access to the enclosed rear garden - a rare advantage for such a central location. The garden has been designed for ease of maintenance and also offers useful storage.
As expected with a cottage of this age, the property would benefit from some ongoing maintenance and sympathetic improvement works. These include some external render maintenance, attention to some windows and repairs or replacement of the conservatory.
These works have been reflected in the asking price and provide an excellent opportunity for the next owner to further improve and preserve this wonderful period home.
