This traditional country cottage, together with two holiday cottages, is situated in an elevated position on Blakeney Hill on the edge of the Forest of Dean, Gloucestershire. Nestled in just over an acre of land and mature orchard, the elevated position of the property takes full advantage of a superb outlook over the River Severn, Cotswold Escarpment and surrounding countryside. The unspoiled main cottage has a huge amount of character and comfortable accommodation extending to three reception rooms, large kitchen and laundry/shower room, three double bedrooms with the master being en-suite and family bathroom. The original stone outbuildings have been converted into two separate one bedroom well-appointed, energy efficient holiday cottages. A successful business enterprise with a significant and established income stream. There is a robust stable block with hay barn and parking for at least four vehicles. The land to the rear of the cottage is sloping with a variety of highly productive fruit trees including plum, cherry, cider apples and Blakeney Red Perry pears. A charming lifestyle property in a lovely rural location.
