Broadwell, Lechlade, Oxfordshire, GL7

A delightful two-bedroom cottage in the picturesque Oxfordshire borders village of Broadwell, with character features and excellent potential for modernisation.

Description

Situated on the border of Broadwell and Kencot and overlooking the delightful Grade I-listed village church is this charming semi-detached cottage with excellent potential for modernisation. The cottage is believed to date back to the late 1600s when it was used as a carriage house; it is unlisted, yet retains character features including a fabulous stone inglenook fireplace. The cottage is somewhat dated internally yet has been well maintained, and there is great scope to extend into the roof or modernise to bring it up to its full potential (subject to consents).

The accommodation comprises an L-shaped sitting room and separate kitchen, a bathroom with shower over, a good-size double bedroom with built-in storage and a second smaller bedroom. A central hallway provides access to the rear garden.

Outside
Lockyer Cottage has pretty views to the front over the church and a private gravel driveway to the side with space for one car. To the rear there is a low-maintenance courtyard-style garden enclosed by high walls for a high degree of privacy. There is space for garden furniture and attractive borders are well stocked with a range of shrubs.
