Hill View, Wortley, Wotton Under Edge, GL12 7QP

A Grade II listed former weaver's cottage tucked away in a peaceful, rural location, surrounded by stunning countryside, yet just a mile from the amenities of Wotton-under-Edge town.

Dating back to the 1650's and extended in the 1990's the property offers nicely proportioned accommodation arranged over three floors. The spacious dual aspect sitting room has exposed beams and there is an ESSE Bakeheart wood burning stove which currently provides a heat source for the cottage. A door leads into the kitchen and stairs with a latch door ascend to the first floor.

The kitchen is well-equipped with a range of wall and base units and has a pleasant outlook across the rear patio. The current owners have installed an Everhot cooker which could remain by negotiation.

A rear lobby leads from the kitchen offering space for coats and shoes, alongside a large cupboard housing the hot water cylinder. A bespoke stable door leads onto the rear garden and a doorway provides access to the bathroom.

The well-proportioned bathroom is equipped with both a bath and a separate shower and is perfectly serviceable but, like the kitchen, could benefit from modernisation.

On the first floor a wonderfully open landing has exposed floorboards and a window with a stunning outlook over the garden, this generous space is well suited to home working or as a library/snug. A door leads into a good size double bedroom with a wonderful outlook and exposed floorboards, and a further staircase with latch door ascends to the attic/bedroom two. This, another light-filled dual aspect room, offers magnificent views toward Alderley and Hillesley.

Outside the mature and productive garden includes a Gabriel Ash greenhouse with a custom built cedar fruit cage. There is also a useful garden shed and a large woodstore. The established garden offers a variety of fruit trees to include multiple apple varieties, pear (Concorde and Williams bon Chretien), apricot, plum, quince and mulberry, as well as hedging consisting of cherry plum trees. To the rear of the garden there is a beautiful seating nook with a glorious outlook over open fields. To the front of the property there is gravelled off street parking area with a Zappi 7kw EV charger. Here you will also find an attractively planted zinc trough and a rainwater harvesting system. A solid wooden side gate provides access to the rear garden.
