Broad Street, GL14

Some homes simply have a feeling about them.

Tucked away in the heart of Littledean, this charming cottage is one of those rare properties that feel wonderfully removed from the ordinary. Full of character, warmth and individuality, it combines the romance of a traditional country cottage with spaces that feel comfortable and practical for modern life.

From the moment you arrive, there is a sense that this is somewhere a little different. Mature planting, established fruit trees and a wonderfully informal garden create a private, almost secret-garden atmosphere, while the cottage itself has the warmth and personality that is so difficult to recreate.

Inside, the living room provides a cosy heart to the home, with an exposed stone fireplace making this room feel super special.  The country-style kitchen sits beyond, creating a sociable space for everyday life, with views and access towards the garden.

There are two bedrooms, including a generous main bedroom, together with a family bathroom and a useful separate space that can be versatile (currently used as a baking room)

But it is outside where this property really begins to tell its story.

The garden is beautifully established and wonderfully individual, with mature trees, productive planting, a winding pathway and tucked-away corners to discover. There is a relaxed, natural quality to it, somewhere to grow vegetables, enjoy the changing seasons, sit beneath the apple trees or simply escape with a coffee and a good book.

A particularly charming annex/outbuilding adds another layer of versatility and could lend itself to a studio, workshop, garden room or simply somewhere to retreat.

This is not a polished, characterless new-build garden. It is a garden with soul, grown, tended and enjoyed over time.

Littledean itself offers a great village setting within the Forest of Dean, close to beautiful countryside and woodland, whilst remaining within easy reach of the wider amenities of the area.

The Location | Littledean

Littledean is a wonderful village on the edge of the Forest of Dean, where open countryside, woodland and traditional Gloucestershire character come together.

There is a lovely sense of being away from it all without being isolated. Cinderford is close by for everyday shopping and amenities, while the wider Forest of Dean provides an exceptional setting for walking, cycling and exploring the countryside. Gloucester is approximately 10 miles away, with Lydney, Coleford and the popular village Newnham.

Littledean has a long and fascinating history, having once been a market town and an important centre for local ironworking. Its historic character remains evident today, with older Forest stone buildings, traditional cottages and the surrounding landscape giving the village a strong sense of place.

For those who love the outdoors, this is a particularly appealing corner of Gloucestershire. Woodland walks, country lanes and the wider Forest of Dean are quite literally on the doorstep, while the village's elevated setting offers beautiful views across the surrounding countryside.

 

A cottage with character. A garden with soul. A home that feels like it has been waiting to be discovered.

Aroha Properties highly recommends an early viewing....
