Hunters Stroud are delighted to present this beautifully presented and thoughtfully extended Cotswold-stone cottage, enjoying an elevated and wonderfully private position with far-reaching views across the surrounding valley. Tucked away at the end of a footpath just above the High Street, the property offers a rare combination of tranquillity, privacy and convenience, with the village's amenities within easy reach. Full of period charm and character, the cottage has been sympathetically enhanced to create a warm and inviting home with a distinctly special atmosphere.

At the heart of the property is the characterful sitting room, where an impressive Inglenook fireplace houses a wood-burning stove alongside an original bread oven. This cosy and atmospheric space provides a wonderful focal point for relaxing and entertaining. The kitchen-breakfast room combines timeless style with practicality, featuring classic Shaker-style cabinetry and a superb Everhot stove at its centre. It is a particularly welcoming room, perfectly suited to everyday family life and leisurely breakfasts.
