Hyde Cottages, Winchcombe – A Characterful Cotswold Stone Home
Rarely available, this delightful two-bedroom semi-detached cottage is a fine example of Winchcombe’s celebrated Cotswold architecture. Built in classic local stone, the property is brimming with character yet offers a generous layout, a beautifully tended rear garden, and the added benefit of a garage – a true rarity in the heart of the town.
Inside, the welcoming entrance hall gives access to both the living room and dining room, each with their own charm and a sense of warmth that complements the cottage’s heritage. The dining room flows naturally through to the kitchen, fitted with a range of wall and base units and ample space for an American-style fridge. From here, doors open directly onto a private patio, complete with an outdoor store – the perfect spot for summer entertaining or enjoying a morning coffee.
Beyond lies a lawned garden, thoughtfully landscaped with a dry stone wall and a pathway leading to a rear gate, which in turn provides access to the garage.
On the first floor, the character continues with two well-proportioned double bedrooms, a generous landing, and a tastefully modernised shower room. Updated in a sympathetic style, the bathroom combines modern convenience with traditional charm.
This property truly captures the essence of Winchcombe living: historic character, spacious accommodation, and a wonderful garden – all in one.
