Owen Gardens, Coleford, Gloucestershire

Spacious home offering excellent potential for modernisation, featuring two reception rooms, a generous kitchen/dining area and a large rear garden. Well located for local amenities, schools and countryside walks, making it ideal for buyers looking to create a home in a convenient setting.



Set within an established residential setting, this traditional brick-built home offers generous proportions and excellent potential for improvement, making it an ideal opportunity for buyers looking to create a home tailored to their own tastes. The property is approached via a spacious frontage providing ample off-road parking, with side access leading through to a notably large rear garden. The outdoor space is a particular feature, combining a paved patio and raised decking area with a lawned section, offering scope for landscaping and outdoor entertaining while enjoying a pleasant open aspect.

Internally, the property provides a well-balanced layout with two separate reception rooms, allowing for flexible living arrangements suited to both family life and home working. The main living room offers a comfortable space for relaxation, while the additional reception room could serve as a dining room, office or playroom depending on requirements. The kitchen/dining area is positioned to the rear with direct access to the garden, presenting a bright and practical space with good proportions, though it would benefit from modernisation. A useful ground floor cloakroom adds further convenience.

Upstairs, there are three well-sized bedrooms arranged around a central landing, each offering good natural light and adaptable space. The bathroom is functional but dated, and like much of the property, provides an opportunity for updating to enhance both style and value. Overall, the house would benefit from cosmetic and some remedial work, but its solid structure and generous footprint provide an excellent foundation for improvement.

The surrounding area offers a strong sense of community along with convenient access to a range of everyday amenities. Nearby, a selection of local shops, supermarkets and independent retailers cater well for day-to-day needs, while cafes and traditional pubs contribute to a welcoming local atmosphere. Families are well served by a choice of primary and secondary schools within easy reach, making the location particularly appealing for those with children.

For those who enjoy the outdoors, the area is surrounded by attractive countryside and green spaces, with access to scenic woodland walks and open fields that are ideal for leisure and recreation. The nearby Forest of Dean provides a wealth of opportunities for walking, cycling and exploring nature, adding to the appeal of the setting.

Transport connections are also convenient, with local bus routes serving the area and linking to neighbouring towns, while road links provide straightforward access to wider regional centres. This makes the property well suited to both local living and commuting, balancing a quieter residential environment with accessibility.

This is a property with clear potential, offering generous space both inside and out, and an excellent opportunity to modernise and add value in a well-connected and increasingly desirable location.


Some images in this listing have been virtually staged or digitally enhanced to show the property's potential. These visuals are for illustration purposes only and may not represent the current condition or furnishings of the home. Furniture, decor, and finishes shown are not included in the sale, and the actual layout, size, and appearance may vary. Buyers are advised to inspect the property in person and rely on their own assessment before making any decisions.


It is important to note that a number of works and considerations have been identified. The property requires full internal refurbishment, and there are known issues including dampness associated with defective rainwater goods and external pointing, along with repairs required to sections of the roof covering.

An internal wall has previously been removed, which is believed to be load-bearing, and buyers should satisfy themselves regarding structural support and any associated building regulation approvals. The services have not been tested and should be inspected by qualified professionals.

Further considerations include the property's location within a former mining area, with appropriate searches recommended, and the wider area being identified as having potential radon exposure, for which testing is advised. The rear outbuildings are in a dilapidated condition and may require removal.

Overall, this is a project-led purchase offering significant scope for improvement and value creation, ideal for buyers looking to undertake a full renovation in a well-connected residential location.

Deposit

Sales can be secured with a reservation deposit of £2,500. This forms part of the final purchase price and is NOT an extra cost.
