Hwicci is a Grade II listed cottage believed to date back to the 1500s, offering a rare opportunity to acquire a historic property in the heart of a charming Cotswold town. This is very much a restoration project, presenting excellent potential for buyers looking to refurbish and update a period home, or explore development possibilities (subject to the necessary consents).
The property benefits from a generous rear garden and also includes a detached garage located on Silk Mill Lane. It is conveniently positioned within walking distance of local shops, restaurants, and everyday amenities.
Accessed from the side through a gated entrance set within a dry stone wall, the cottage opens into an entrance hall with a cloakroom to the right. The main living room is rich in original character, featuring a large fireplace, exposed beams, panelling, and stairs rising to the first floor. A second reception room provides flexible space for use as a dining room, snug, or study. Beyond this is a kitchen/dining area with a utility space off, and a stable door leading out to the garden.
Upstairs, there are four bedrooms and a family bathroom. The first floor offers clear scope for reconfiguration and improvement, particularly to maximise the impact of the attractive vaulted ceilings — an appealing and somewhat unusual feature for a property of this age.
The detached garage on Silk Mill Lane provides useful storage or parking.
Overall, Hwicci represents an appealing opportunity for purchasers seeking a project with character — a chance to restore and enhance a historic Cotswold cottage while shaping it to modern requirements.
