A Grade II listed two-bedroom character cottage in the heart of town, opposite the famous pub.

Description
Set right in the heart of Northleach in a prime position opposite the landmark village pub, Corston Cottage is a Grade ii-listed Cotswold stone cottage with a lovely rear garden. The mid-terrace property is beautifully appointed inside and out, with its immaculately presented interiors making it ideal for a second home or holiday let. The cottage, which was believed to have been built in the early 19th century, has masses of character including sash windows, exposed beams, stone walls and a huge inglenook fireplace with wood-burning stove. The interiors are decorated in a modern country style with neutral tones and natural materials, making it ready for personalisation by the new owner.

The accommodation is arranged over three floors, comprising a sitting room and kitchen/dining room on the ground floor, a bedroom and bath/shower room on the first floor and a further double bedroom and en suite shower room on the second floor.

Outside
The cottage sits directly on West End, with on-street parking available locally. The rear garden is a surprise: It’s south facing and has a lovely open aspect, looking out across the rooftops of the village and the surrounding countryside as it drops into the valley below. The garden is enclosed by a dry stone wall and picket fence backed by mature hedging, and is landscaped to include a good-size terrace inset within the lawn – perfect for sundowner drinks in the warmer months. There is an additional area of lawn towards the rear which offers good scope as a vegetable garden, or for further landscaping.

Location
Northleach is a small historic market town situated about nine miles from the market town of Cirencester. Tucked away just off the A40, between undulating hills, it stands at a crossroads on the Roman Fosse Way, in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Northleach has an excellent variety of shops including an award-winning butcher, a vintner, a chemist and a Post Office. The town also benefits from a doctor’s surgery, primary school, nursery, a magnificent medieval church and the well-regarded Wheatsheaf Inn, a Mr & Mrs Smith boutique hotel.

More extensive shopping, leisure and educational facilities can be found in Cheltenham and Oxford, including Cheltenham College and Cheltenham Ladies, Wycliffe and Rencomb. A lively charter market is held every Wednesday and the Charter Fair is held annually in June.
