Lower Swell About the Property
Tucked away in the heart of Lower Swell, Lavender Cottage is a characterful Cotswold stone cottage offering a wonderful blend of traditional charm and spacious, versatile accommodation.
On entering the cottage, a welcoming sitting room immediately sets the tone, with an impressive open fireplace creating a particularly inviting focal point. The accommodation flows naturally through to a useful additional bedroom/ office and separate utility room, before opening into a generous kitchen with ample space for everyday living.
The kitchen leads through to a substantial dining room, providing an ideal setting for relaxed family meals and entertaining. Beyond this, a light-filled conservatory takes full advantage of the outlook, with French doors opening directly onto the garden and creating an easy connection between the house and its outdoor space.
Upstairs, the principal bedroom is generously sized and enjoys the benefit of a private en-suite shower room. A further double bedroom is complemented by a spacious family bathroom.
Outside, the cottage is particularly well served by its mature garden. Established planting and colourful flower beds create a peaceful and private setting, with an area for outdoor dining providing the perfect spot for enjoying the garden throughout the summer. A garden shed offers useful additional storage.
There is on-street parking available to the front of the property for several vehicles.
