Description

Located in an idyllic setting, this traditional Cotswold village house offers enormous potential for the new owner to now remodel, extend and finish to their own standard. Recent planning permission now allows for an extension and reconfiguration of the existing layout to provide a beautifully appointed living space. This charming house is constructed of traditional Cotswold stone with the original mullion windows, shutters and some exposed beams in the oldest part of the house.

Set in just under an acre with a south-westerly aspect, Woodside Cottage overlooks its own grounds with views over the village and countryside beyond. A private driveway drops down to the cottage with parking.

The popular Cotswold village of Oakridge Lynch is located in an elevated position between Cirencester and Stroud and is made up of five rural hamlets. The active community benefits from St Bartholomew’s Church, a primary school, a village shop with post office, The Butcher’s Arms pub, a village hall, cricket club and a vast variety of clubs and associations. The area offers excellent educational opportunities with grammar schools for boys and girls being available in Gloucester, Stroud and Cheltenham. Secondary schools are found in nearby Eastcombe village, Stroud and Cirencester
