3 The Terrace, Boscombe Lane, Horsley, GL6 0PZ

3 The Terrace is a truly enchanting end-of-terrace Cotswold stone cottage, believed to date back to the 1850s, offering a rare blend of period charm and modern practicality.

Set in a first-class position, the property enjoys breathtaking views, alongside the valuable additions of off-road parking and a substantial 30ft workshop/garage, an uncommon find in such a sought-after village setting.

Lovingly cared for by the current owners since 2009, the cottage exudes warmth and character throughout, arranged thoughtfully over three floors.

Upon entering, a welcoming hallway leads through a traditional thumb-latch door into the dining room, where a front-facing window and tiled flooring create an inviting space.

A further thumb-latch door reveals a useful understairs cupboard, while the room flows seamlessly into the kitchen.

The kitchen is both charming and practical, featuring bespoke cabinetry, a characterful gas Aga, and a conventional gas cooker.

Dual windows and French doors frame delightful garden views and flood the space with natural light, creating a bright and sociable heart of the home.

At the far end, a convenient cloakroom/utility area adds to the functionality.

To the front of the cottage, the sitting room provides a cosy retreat, centred around a striking cut-stone fireplace housing a cast-iron log-burning stove, perfect for relaxed evenings.

From here, a staircase rises to the first floor.

The principal bedroom enjoys an abundance of natural light from windows to both the front and rear elevations and benefits from its own en-suite shower room.

Also on this level is the family bathroom, elegantly appointed with both a separate shower cubicle and a classic roll-top bath.

A further room to the rear, ideal as a study or fourth bedroom, boasts truly outstanding views.

Stairs continue to the second floor, where two additional bedrooms are found, enhanced by dormer and Velux windows that create bright and airy spaces full of character.

Externally, the property is approached via a quiet lane leading to an enclosed front garden, laid mainly to level lawn.

The rear garden is a particular highlight, beautifully arranged with a generous seating terrace directly behind the cottage, perfect for entertaining or simply enjoying the far-reaching views.

Beyond are well-stocked cottage-style flower beds and a sizeable lawn, ideal for families.

A short distance down the lane lies an additional parcel of land belonging to the property, providing valuable off-road parking along with a substantial 30ft timber-built workshop/garage and further storage, an exceptional and highly desirable feature in this picturesque village.
