This charming three-bedroom semi-detached cottage is set within a sought-after village location, enjoying elevated views and a generous south-west facing garden.

The village of Coalway is approximately 1 mile away from the market town of Coleford and offers local amenities to include an Infant and Junior School, a Playgroup for pre-school, shop, village pub, park with recreation ground and a local football club.

The property is entered via a porch which opens into the main hallway, creating a natural separation from the living areas. From here, doors lead through to the principal reception spaces.

To the front, the living room is a generously sized reception space with excellent proportions, offering plenty of flexibility for a variety of furniture arrangements. There is ample room for large sofas and armchairs, with clear zones for both seating and media, making it easy to create a comfortable, lived-in feel. A wide front-facing window allows natural light to filter in throughout the day, while still leaving good wall space for furniture placement. The room’s focal point is the feature fireplace set into the far wall, providing a natural centrepiece and the potential to create a cosy setting for evenings in. The high ceiling adds to the sense of space, and its decorative finish gives the room a characterful feel that could be enhanced further with modern or period-inspired styling. Overall, this is a bright and versatile room with strong proportions, well suited to both everyday living and entertaining, and offering clear scope for cosmetic updating to suit personal taste.

Adjacent to this,the dining room is a spacious and versatile reception room, offering excellent proportions for a full-sized dining table along with additional furniture such as sideboards or display units. Its shape lends itself well to both everyday family dining and more formal entertaining, with plenty of circulation space around the table. A large window allows natural light to fill the room, creating a bright and welcoming atmosphere while still offering good wall space for furniture placement. The feature fireplace provides a strong focal point and adds a sense of character, giving the room warmth and presence that could be further enhanced with personal styling or sympathetic updating. With its generous floor area and clear connection to the rest of the ground floor, this room could also adapt easily to modern living needs, whether as a combined dining and family space or as a secondary sitting room. Overall, it is a well-sized, flexible room with plenty of potential to become a central hub of the home.
 
The kitchen itself is positioned to the rear and is a long, practical space that offers excellent potential for reconfiguration or modernisation. Arranged in a galley-style layout, it provides a good run of worktop and storage along one side, with space for freestanding appliances, making it well suited to everyday use while also offering scope to update to a more contemporary finish. A window above the sink allows natural light to brighten the room, while a door to the rear provides convenient access outside, ideal for day-to-day living. The proportions allow for comfortable movement through the space, and there is enough width to consider alternative layouts, additional cabinetry, or even a small breakfast area with thoughtful redesign. To the rear of the kitchen, an inner hallway leads through to the ground floor bathroom, keeping this area neatly separated from the main living spaces. Overall, the kitchen is a functional room with clear potential, offering buyers the opportunity to tailor it to their own tastes and lifestyle needs.

A rear hallway leads from the kitchen to the bathroom and is a practical, self-contained space arranged to make good use of the available area. It is fitted with a shower enclosure, pedestal wash basin and WC, creating a straightforward layout that serves the household well. There is sufficient room to move comfortably within the space, and the current arrangement leaves clear potential for modernisation. With updating, the room could be transformed into a fresh and contemporary bathroom, tailored to suit individual tastes, while retaining its convenient ground floor position.

The first floor accommodation is arranged around a central landing and comprises three bedrooms, each offering its own character and flexibility.

The principal bedroom is a comfortable double room with good proportions, allowing space for a double bed, bedside tables, and additional storage such as wardrobes or drawers. A window draws in natural light, giving the room a pleasant, airy feel, while the layout makes it easy to personalise with updated décor and furnishings.

Bedroom two is another well-sized room, also capable of accommodating a double bed if required. With a straightforward shape and a bright outlook from the window, it works equally well as a guest bedroom or a generous child’s room, with plenty of scope for storage along one wall.

The third bedroom is a versatile space, ideal as a single bedroom, home office, or dressing room. It enjoys natural light and offers enough floor area for a bed or desk setup, making it well suited to modern working-from-home needs or as a nursery.

Together, the bedrooms provide flexible and adaptable accommodation, all offering a blank canvas for refurbishment, allowing a new owner to tailor the spaces to suit their lifestyle and needs.

 Outside - Externally, the property benefits from a generous plot that offers excellent potential for outdoor enjoyment and further landscaping. To the front, a gated entrance opens onto the garden, bordered by a low stone wall that gives a pleasant sense of separation from the road while still feeling open and welcoming. The main garden extends to the rear and is notably spacious, laid predominantly to lawn and offering plenty of room for a variety of uses. There is clear scope to create defined areas for seating, play, or growing, with existing pathways and sections lending themselves well to a more structured garden design if desired. The size of the plot also allows for vegetable beds or hobby gardening, making it particularly appealing for those who enjoy spending time outdoors. With neighbouring properties set at a comfortable distance, the garden enjoys an open feel and a good sense of privacy, while still being part of an established residential setting. Overall, the outside space is a key feature of the home, offering scale, flexibility, and the opportunity to create a garden tailored to individual lifestyle needs.
