Outside, the cottage enjoys a delightful enclosed garden, thoughtfully planted with mature trees, lawn and established planting including wisteria, lavender and jasmine. Natural stone pathways weave through the garden, creating a peaceful and charming outdoor environment ideal for relaxing or gardening. A patio area provides the perfect spot for summer evenings, while a garden shed with lighting and power offers practical storage. The garden provides a wonderful sense of privacy while remaining connected to the surrounding countryside.
The property also benefits from off-street parking for two vehicles, a valuable feature within village settings.
For those wishing to enhance the accommodation, the property previously obtained planning permission for a two-storey side extension, and planning remains in place for a single-storey side extension, which would provide an entrance hallway, downstairs shower room and space for an additional room, offering excellent potential for future development if desired.
Over the years the cottage has benefited from several important improvements. Approximately 18 years ago the roof was removed, lined, refitted and insulated, while heating is provided by an external oil-fired boiler installed four years ago. The property also benefits from Gigaclear ultrafast broadband provision, ensuring excellent modern connectivity within this rural setting.
The village itself offers a wonderful sense of community and countryside living, with a popular farm shop and café, two pubs and two hotels — including a boutique hotel — all within easy reach, contributing to the relaxed yet vibrant atmosphere of village life.
The historic market towns of Malmesbury and Cirencester are both just a short drive away, offering an excellent range of independent shops, cafés, restaurants and everyday amenities set around their charming streets.
For commuters, the M4 Motorway (J17) provides swift access to Bristol, Swindon and beyond, while mainline services from Kemble railway station and Chippenham railway station offer direct connections to London Paddington Station in around 75 minutes.
Weekends can be spent exploring the surrounding countryside with its network of footpaths and bridleways, enjoying golf at nearby courses, racing at Cheltenham Racecourse or Bath Racecourse, theatre trips to Bath or Bristol, or watersports and lakeside walks at the Cotswold Water Park.
This is a home that offers charm without compromise — a rare opportunity to enjoy an authentic Cotswold cottage lifestyle in a beautiful and well-connected village setting.
