Appletree Cottage is a delightful five-bedroom, semi-detached Cotswold stone property, believed to date back to around 1897. Located in the picturesque village of Cowley, on the outskirts of Cheltenham, this charming home has recently undergone a thoughtful renovation, blending modern conveniences with traditional character.
As you enter the hallway, you are welcomed by a spacious kitchen/diner, equipped with stylish wall and base units, wooden worktops, a Belfast sink, an induction hob and an electric double oven. An under-counter fridge and freezer are also integrated, while the stone flooring with underfloor heating enhances the comfort and functionality of this space. The adjoining dining room features original floorboards and a striking fireplace, adding to the cottage’s rustic appeal. Off the kitchen, the fifth bedroom is located—perfect for use as a study, playroom, or snug. Additionally, there is potential to create a dedicated utility area, and a new cloakroom has been fitted on this level.
The large living room offers access to the rear garden through bi-fold doors, presenting stunning views over the valley. This space is further enhanced by a charming inglenook fireplace with a wood burner, complemented by wooden floors and stairs that lead to the upstairs bedrooms.
The primary bedroom upstairs boasts wooden floors, a modern en-suite shower room and floor-to-ceiling fitted wardrobes, alongside beautiful views over the valley. Two out of the three additional double bedrooms have been newly carpeted and share a newly fitted family bathroom.
Externally, the property benefits from a driveway at the front that can accommodate parking for several cars. The private rear garden, though currently cleared, awaits landscaping and provides a tranquil setting with breathtaking views over the surrounding pastureland and valley. Subject to planning permission, there is potential to build a garage if desired.
The village of Cowley offers stunning walks along the Cotswold Way, a local pub and shop ('The Green Dragon Inn') and a convenient bus route. The property falls within the catchment area for well-regarded local schools. High-speed Gigaclear broadband is available in the village, ensuring excellent connectivity, while the property itself boasts a newly installed central heating system and double glazing throughout.
