A Stunning 18th-Century Grade II Listed Cottage – Beautifully Renovated for Modern Family Living

Dating back to circa 1730, this exceptional Grade II Listed cottage combines the timeless charm of a historic Cotswold home with the comfort and practicality of a modern three-bedroom family house. Sympathetically renovated to the highest standards, the property has been thoughtfully reconfigured to create generous accommodation arranged over three floors, whilst retaining a wealth of period features.

Inside, the cottage exudes character, with exposed stone walls, oak beams, and an impressive inglenook fireplace housing a statement wood-burning stove. Extensive works have transformed the property into a functional and inviting home, including brand new bathrooms, staircases, doors, and flooring throughout, as well as improved roof and floor insulation, double glazing and underfloor heating — all meeting modern building standards without compromising on heritage charm.

The ground floor offers a spacious sitting room with the magnificent inglenook fireplace, a separate dining room with access to the first floor, and a high-quality kitchen complete with granite worktops, a breakfast bar, space for a range cooker, and integrated appliances. A practical utility room adds further storage.

Upstairs, the master suite is a true highlight. With vaulted ceilings, exposed oak trusses, it boasts a walk-in dressing room and a luxurious bathroom with separate shower. A second double bedroom and stylish family bathroom are also on this floor. A separate staircase leads to the converted attic room — an expansive third bedroom, home office, or studio space with Velux windows and oak beams.

Outside, the property continues to impress. Two distinct garden areas provide ideal spaces for family living — with room for children to play while adults relax and entertain. The side garden, enclosed by a dry-stone wall, offers privacy and sunshine, while the rear garden is generous and practical, with vehicular access and parking through double gates. Off-street parking is also available at the front of the house adding further convenience.

Perfectly positioned within pleasant walking distance of Corsham’s charming town centre, the cottage enjoys both tranquillity and accessibility. Corsham itself is steeped in history and offers an array of independent shops, boutiques, coffee houses, pubs, and excellent schools, all set against the backdrop of the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. With Bath, Bristol, and Swindon nearby, excellent road links via the M4, and mainline rail services from Chippenham and Bath, this location is as practical as it is picturesque.

This is more than just a cottage with character — it is a home that offers the very best of both worlds: the enduring beauty of an 18th-century property, brought fully up to date for the demands of modern family living.
