2 bed detached house for sale

Victoria Road, Cirencester, Gloucestershire GL7

This much-loved family home is offered to the market for the first time in over 30 years. The current owner has made a number of improvements while leaving plenty of scope for a new owner to personalise and create their ideal home.

100 Victoria Road is a charming detached two-bedroom cottage, ideally situated in the heart of Cirencester. The accommodation is entered via a porch, leading into a spacious sitting room with useful built-in storage to either side of the chimney breast. This, in turn, opens into a light and airy kitchen/dining room with ample space for a dining table and attractive views over the rear garden. A door from the kitchen provides convenient side access to the garden, while the ground floor also benefits from a well-appointed bathroom.

Upstairs, the generous proportions continue with impressive ceiling heights. The principal bedroom is a spacious double, and the second bedroom enjoys delightful views across the garden. In recent years, the property has benefited from a replacement gas boiler and updated radiators.

The deceptively large west-facing rear garden is a particular feature of the property, being predominantly laid to lawn and offering an excellent space for entertaining, gardening, or family life. A range of useful outbuildings and storage sheds are situated at the far end of the garden.

The market town of Cirencester is often referred to as the 'Capital of the Cotswolds'. It is ideally located with the M4, M5 and M40/A40, the mainline train station at Kemble and excellent bus and coach links all within easy reach.

Cirencester benefits from high street stores, independent specialist retailers, and a weekly market. There are also several delightful bistros, cafes, wine bars and public houses to suit all tastes. Cirencester boasts a community hospital, leisure centre and a lovely outdoor swimming pool. Nearby there is golf, tennis, riding, football, rugby and cricket.

There are excellent primary and secondary state schools and a sixth form college campus. There are also good independent schools in the surrounding areas.
