Steeped in centuries of history, this charming two bedroom cottage has witnessed many lifetimes and stories. Coming to the market for the first time in over 50 years, it is offered with no onward chain and awaits its new custodian.

Believed to date back to the 16th century, the cottage may once have sheltered monks serving at Kingswood Abbey before the Dissolution under Henry VII. A practical porch welcomes you inside - ideal for muddy boots after rural rambles. Beyond this lies the modest family bathroom, fitted with a bath, toilet and basin, and understood to hold a flying freehold with the neighbouring property. The cosy reception room, with exposed stonework, character beams and a crackling woodburner, provides the perfect setting for quiet evenings. The kitchen offers good storage and a pleasant outlook over the fields behind.

A traditional staircase, tucked neatly behind a door, rises to the first floor. The generous landing, bathed in natural light, lends itself to a study nook or peaceful second sitting area, sharing the same lovely view. An open doorway leads to the second bedroom- a bright, well proportioned double with a southerly aspect and built in storage. A further staircase carries you to the top floor, once used by spinsters at work and now transformed into the main bedroom. With exposed beams, eaves storage and a dormer window welcoming the morning light, it offers a serene retreat. The immersion heater is housed within the larger cupboard.

A short stroll from the cottage lies the garden, measuring approximately 10m x 23m. A summerhouse at the far end provides a delightful spot for tea and conversation, while the patio invites you to enjoy a quiet moment in the sun. A shed offers practical storage, while the garden is perfect for someone with a green thumb, featuring mature shrubs, a hazelnut tree, peonies, buddleia, iris, fern, honeysuckle, a vegetable patch and a peaceful pond beside the patio. There is no allocated parking with the property, so parking is on street nearby.

The setting is as charming as the cottage itself. Tucked away from the High Street, it sits moments from the historic Abbey Gatehouse, St Mary’s Church, Kingswood’s Congregational Church, the local SPAR and the community owned Village Inn. The Walk backs onto a gentle curve of the Little Avon River, with plentiful footpaths close by. Families will appreciate proximity to Kingswood Primary School and the highly regarded Katharine Lady Berkeley’s School. For commuters, Junction 14 of the M5 is around a 10 minute drive, offering access to Bristol, Gloucester and Cheltenham. Rail connections are currently available from Yate (approx. 7.4 miles), with Charfield’s new station expected to open in 2027.

A place with soul and centuries behind it, now ready for someone new to call it home. Viewings strictly by prior appointment.
