2 bed semi-detached house for sale

Dr Crouchs Road, Eastcombe GL6

Set away from passing traffic just off Dr Crouches Road, 3 Jasmine Cottages sits in a tucked-away setting that feels remarkably private, yet right at the heart of village life. This is a surprisingly spacious Cotswold stone cottage, extended and improved over the years, with over 1000 sq.ft. Of accommodation arranged across two floors with character features and considered décor in every room. You get an immediate sense of a home that has been thoughtfully looked after as you walk into the spacious entrance hall with timber flooring and exposed Cotswold stone walls. The sitting room is to the right - a lovely, comfortable space with a wood burning stove and a window seat. A beautifully finished kitchen with shaker style cabinetry, integrated appliances and a Butler sink is found to the left of the hall and this flows naturally into a dining room, with glazed double doors that open onto the garden. There is also a useful store room and a shower room with W.C. On this floor. This is accessed from the dining room, and so this could serve as an occasional bedroom if so needed. Upstairs, two well-proportioned double bedrooms both enjoy a good outlook - one over the garden at the front, and the other with open views across the village rooftops to the countryside beyond. The larger of the two rooms is particularly impressive, with striking exposed oak roof trusses that give it a real sense of character. A well-appointed bathroom completes the first floor accommodation. This is a special home, offered with no onward chain, and a must for your viewing list.

Outside, you’ll find parking and beautifully kept cottage gardens. The parking is at street level, with the gravel drive with space to park two vehicles and a useful store behind. A gated paved path leads down from this area to the house and the garden, which is set to the front of the cottage. A gravel path sweeps through the garden, under a pergola, to the front door, with the garden set to either side. This area is beautifully kept and has clearly been a real labour of love, with a level lawn, steps down to a productive area with raised beds and a further area of sloping lawn to the right of the front door. A timber deck terrace sits in front of the dining room and double doors open here, connecting the house and the garden. The lawns are edged with established planting with a variety of colourful borders, with colour and interest everywhere you look.
