Set in the heart of the picturesque village of Avening, this charming detached Cotswold stone cottage offers an appealing blend of character and contemporary comfort. Arranged over three floors, the warm and well-proportioned accommodation has an easy flow that suits both family living and entertaining.Entered from the side elevation, the house opens into an entrance hall with a cloakroom and a light-filled staircase rising to the first floor. The ground floor includes a sitting room with beamed ceiling and stone fireplace, leading through to a separate dining room. A generous kitchen/breakfast room at the rear of the property opens onto a sheltered courtyard-style garden beside Star Lane.The first floor provides a bright double bedroom and a family bathroom with a modern white suite. A second room on this level offers valuable flexibility, working equally well as a dressing room, home office, playroom or additional bedroom. Stairs lead from here to the top floor, where two further double bedrooms feature timber roof beams and dual-aspect windows capturing pretty village views.Situated within the Avening Conservation Area, the property has been sensitively renovated to complement its prominent village position and traditional Cotswold character. Recent improvements include new front-elevation windows, interior enhancements to the upper floors and a new bathroom, all undertaken with care to preserve the home’s period integrity while upgrading living standards and efficiency.Outside, the well-maintained garden enjoys a southerly aspect and a choice of sunny seating spots throughout the day. The property currently provides off-street parking for one car. Planning permission is in place for a reconfiguration of the garden, including options for additional parking and refinements to boundary walls and access. These plans offer future owners the potential to shape the outdoor space to suit their own lifestyle, should they wish to do so.With its desirable setting, balanced accommodation and scope for future personalisation, this is a wonderful opportunity to secure a quintessential Cotswold home within a friendly and well-connected village.
