About
Offered to the market with no onward chain, this delightful two-bedroom detached Cotswold stone cottage sits within the heart of the village, set back behind a lawned garden with a driveway providing parking for several vehicles which leads to a detached garage.
Internally, the cottage features a spacious 16'4 x 16'0 kitchen–dining room positioned alongside a charming sitting room enhanced by an exposed stone walling, ceiling beams, stone mullion window and a welcoming wood-burning stove.
The property benefits from two separate staircases, one rising from the sitting room and the other from the kitchen dining room adding to its unique layout and period appeal.
A useful utility room adjoins the kitchen and provides access to a small bathroom, as well as a rear door opening into a covered store/wood store.
Upstairs, there are two bedrooms, one of which enjoys its own private staircase leading down to the sitting room, along with a shower room.
The cottage offers excellent scope for updating and improvement and already possesses the quintessential charm and aesthetic one would expect from a traditional home in the Cotswolds.
Amenities Oakridge Lynch is a small Cotswold village east of Stroud, known for its stone cottages, wooded valleys, and links to the Arts & Crafts movement.

Other amenities in the village include: A village shop and post office, St Bartholomew’s Church, the Butcher’s Arms pub, and the long-established village school.
