A charming three-bedroom detached cottage set within an attractive rural setting on the edge of the Forest of Dean, offering an appealing combination of character, generous outdoor space and excellent potential for those seeking a countryside lifestyle.

Outside, the property is particularly appealing, with a private garden, driveway parking and a garage. The grounds extend to approximately 1.2 acres, incorporating an adjoining field which provides a variety of possible uses. There is also an enclosed paddock with two separate access points, making the property particularly attractive to buyers with equestrian interests, livestock or those looking for additional recreational space.

The combination of garden, field and paddock provides plenty of scope for enjoying the outdoors, gardening, keeping animals or simply making the most of the surrounding countryside.

The property benefits from double glazing and central heating, with oil heating, mains water and electricity, together with a septic tank drainage system.

Situated in Lydbrook, within the picturesque Forest of Dean, the property enjoys access to a wealth of countryside and woodland walks, while the village provides useful everyday amenities. Local convenience shopping is available within Lydbrook, including Premier, while there are several pubs and places to eat in the village, including Royal Spring Inn and The Colliers Inn.

For families, Lydbrook Primary School is approximately 0.2 miles away, with Five Acres High School around 2.3 miles from the property.

The surrounding Forest of Dean provides an abundance of opportunities for walking, cycling, horse riding and outdoor pursuits, while the nearby River Wye adds to the area's scenic appeal. Lydbrook also has local bus services, with a stop on Worrall Hill Road only a short distance from the postcode.

For wider shopping and amenities, the larger centres of Coleford, Cinderford and Ross-on-Wye are within driving distance, providing a broader range of shops, services and leisure facilities.

Offering approximately 1.2 acres, an enclosed paddock, adjoining field, garage and a characterful three-bedroom cottage, this is an excellent opportunity for buyers seeking space, privacy and a rural lifestyle in a beautiful part of Gloucestershire.

Buyer Processing Fee:
Once an offer is accepted, a buyer processing fee of £250 is payable before we begin processing the purchase. This contributes towards the administration involved in progressing the purchase and arranging the buyer identity verification checks required under UK Anti-Money Laundering Regulations, which are carried out by our independent third-party provider.

Exclusivity Fee:
You can secure the purchase by paying an exclusivity fee of £2,000. This grants the buyer exclusive rights to proceed with the purchase for the duration of the conveyancing process, during which time the seller agrees to remove the property from the market and not negotiate with other parties.

The £2,000 Exclusivity Fee is returned to the buyer upon successful completion of the purchase. It is also refundable in certain circumstances where the purchase cannot reasonably proceed. The Exclusivity Fee Agreement sets out the full terms, including when the fee may be refunded or retained. It does not constitute an exchange of contracts.

This arrangement provides buyers with reassurance that the property is secured exclusively for them, reducing the risk of gazumping and unnecessary aborted costs.

Flood Risk

Environment Agency open data, checked around the advertised map pin for the listed acreage. Long-term risk counts flood defences; the planning map's flood zones do not. The map pin for this listing marks the postcode area rather than the exact location, so these readings describe the surrounding area. Provided by LandSale, not the listing agent, and not part of the agent's particulars. Risk varies across a holding, so verify before committing.

Rivers and the sea

Very low risk

Planning map: Flood Zone 1.
