Description
This interesting semi-detached character cottage presents the excellent opportunity to renovate and refurbished a period home within the beautiful Cotswold village of Avening. The Old Post Office is most deceptive in size forming part of an impressive Grade II listed Georgian house with a substantial extension to the side. Behind the cottage, there is an equally as deceptive south-facing rear garden which is approximately 120ft in length ascending up the valley and is currently overgrown. The character accommodation extends to some 1,155 sq.ft. spanning over three floors. The accommodation includes two reception spaces, a kitchen/dining room, three bedrooms and a bathroom.
Situation
Avening is a delightful Cotswold village nestling across the Nailsworth Valley and has a public house, a village hall, an excellent primary school and parish Church. The village is close to Minchinhampton Common and Gatcombe Park, the home of The Princess Royal and Gatcombe Horse Trials. Avening is conveniently located between Tetbury and Nailsworth, both of which have an excellent range of facilities including shops, public houses and primary schools with a secondary school at Tetbury. There is an excellent choice of both public and private schools within the area including Beaudesert Park near Minchinhampton. Located on the edge of the village is Minchinhampton golf course. Also within the local area are a number of places of interest including the world famous Westonbirt Arboretum with some 18 thousand trees and shrubs in approximately 600 acres of landscaped grounds, and over 600 acres of National Trust common land at Minchinhampton and Rodborough.
