Gloucester Street, Winchcombe

n the heart of Winchcombe sits Honey Cottage, a Grade II listed home that balances period character with a quietly successful recent history. Over the past three years, the property has operated as a holiday let, producing an average income of approximately £32,000 per annum, and is available for purchase as a going concern. All contents are available to be purchased by separate negotiation. It is equally well suited to continued investment as it is to private occupation.

An inner porch opens into the sitting room, a space defined by exposed brickwork and an original window seat that naturally lends itself to dining. The fireplace, currently fitted with an electric fire, could accommodate a log burner subject to the relevant consents. Stairs rise from here to the first floor, while the kitchen is positioned to the rear.The kitchen retains a strong sense of place, with exposed Cotswold stone walls and well considered storage. Integrated appliances include a washing machine and dishwasher, and there is an alcove designed to house a tall fridge freezer. Beyond, a rear lobby with a Belfast sink leads to the ground floor bathroom.Upstairs, two double bedrooms provide well balanced accommodation. The principal bedroom is particularly noteworthy, with high ceilings, exposed beams and a stone mullion window that gives the room both scale and character as well as offering ample storage. The second bedroom is equally charming and benefits from built in storage.The garden extends well beyond first expectations. A paved terrace sits directly behind the cottage, with steps rising to a long lawn bordered by mature planting. Open views towards St Peter's Church create a distinctive and peaceful outlook. A greenhouse is positioned at the far end s well as a large shed.LocationWinchcombe is widely regarded as one of the most attractive towns in the Cotswolds.

The town sits on the Cotswold Way and is surrounded by open countryside, while nearby Sudeley Castle, with its landscaped grounds and regular programme of events, supports a consistent flow of visitors throughout the year.Honey Cottage offers a rare combination of architectural character, established income and a prime central setting within one of the region’s most desirable market towns.
