Nestled only moments from Wotton’s historic High Street, this prestigious Grade II home exudes heritage and character. Steeped in history from the late 18th Century, the interior showcases enchanting features such as exposed wooden beams, charming fireplaces, and a late medieval plank door, complete with large nail heads and ornamental strap hinges. The welcoming entrance hall leads to a lounge bathed in natural light from the stunning 19th-century bay window, wooden beams, and a beautiful stone inglenook fireplace, with the only working woodburner – the perfect retreat on a winter's evening. An arched opening leads to the staircases in front, and to your right, a contemporary kitchen/breakfast room. Thoughtfully extended under previous ownership, this space offers ample worktops, cabinetry, and shelving throughout. The Rangemaster oven is perfect for crafting family feasts, while a separate door provides easy outdoor access onto the rear courtyard garden. Spanning the full width of the original home, a versatile second reception is slightly partitioned by exposed beams – perfect for a teenager’s retreat to one end and formal dining at the other. The room also features the second Georgian bay window, a second fireplace, and direct access to the outdoor space. Hidden here is the entrance to the cellar, perfect for storage and features a window and lighting. Upstairs, two impressive double bedrooms boast built-in storage, fireplaces and sun-soaked southwest-facing windows. The single bedroom, currently dressed as an office, features dual wardrobes and a doorway onto a raised terrace – perfect for al-fresco dining. The room can be expanded by removing the built-in storage. An additional bathroom completes this floor. Above, the exceptional principal bedroom stretches over 8 metres, offering vaulted ceilings, ample lighting from three sash windows, and built-in wardrobes. An additional bathroom creates a serene escape from a stressful day with a jet bath and separate shower. At the same time, the fourth single bedroom adds further practicality with additional built-in storage. Blending comfort with character, this home is located near Bluecoat Primary School, The Great British School, and the esteemed Katharine Lady Berkeley’s Secondary School, with local amenities in reach and the Cotswold Way passing by - a true reflection of this sought-after town.

Area Description

Known as the “Gateway to the Cotswolds,” Wotton-under-Edge is a historic market town dating back to Saxon times, situated on the edge of the Cotswold Escarpment. Lying within the Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Wotton-under-Edge was ranked as the happiest place to live in Gloucestershire by a survey in 2025 (https://www.gazetteseries.co.uk/news/25577652.wotton-under-edge-happiest-place-live-gloucestershire/). The High Street is lined with traditional stone buildings that house a variety of independent shops, cafés, a Tesco Express, a Co-operative mini-supermarket, The Falcon Steakhouse, and three public houses. The town is also home to the Ram Inn – a famous 13th-century public house now closed to visitors – as well as its own independent cinema, which has been operating since 1911. Junction 14 of the M5 lies approximately 5.1 miles away, offering convenient access for commuters to Bristol, Gloucester, and Cheltenham. Tetbury, home to the King’s residence, is just 10.1 miles from Wotton-under-Edge. Around 7 miles away, Cam and Dursley Railway Station provides rail connections to both Bristol and Gloucester until the opening of Charfield Railway Station, expected in Spring 2027 (https://beta.southglos.gov.uk/charfield-train-station/). For primary education, children can attend The Great British School or Bluecoat Primary School, with additional options available in nearby villages such as Charfield, Tortworth, and Hillesley. The prestigious Katharine Lady Berkeley’s Secondary School is located between the neighbouring village of Kingswood and the outskirts of Wotton-under-Edge, making it easily accessible on foot. Visitors may discover this charming town while walking the Cotswold Way. Additional leisure activities include a golf club and a refurbished open-air swimming pool, which operates seasonally.
