For Sale £650,000 - Detached House
This 17th century cottage offers country living at its best! A little off the beaten track yet within easy reach of everything you need!
The owners of this lovely detached 17th century cottage, have so loved living in the village for 25 years, that they will be moving into a new bungalow next door! The cottage offers all the features you think of when contemplating living in the countryside (quiet area, off the beaten track, great for taking the dogs for a walk, ceiling beams and lots of character…), but it also offers so much more, having been greatly improved and extended. Location wise, it’s brilliant! Conveniently situated for access to the M5 motorway, just 15 minutes’ drive to all the shops and supermarkets in Thornbury, Chipping Sodbury and Yate, virtually on the doorstep of a village primary school, less than three miles from a secondary school (Brimsham Green) which was rated as “good” in its most recent Ofsted report, and just a few yards from a local pub where you can have a cracking Sunday roast! If you’re not already sold on the idea of viewing Rose Cottage, let me add that it offers four large bedrooms, three reception rooms, a lovely kitchen and a wonderful family bathroom, as well as a utility/boot room, and cloakrooms on both floors. There is a very sunny rear garden, parking for at least 2-3 cars … need I go on?

LOCATION:
The village of Rangeworthy, or Rangery as it was originally known, has been around for a long time. It was a chapelry when the Domesday Book was compiled. These days the village offers a delightful compromise between country living (which can sometimes be a little remote and difficult to get anywhere) and modern urban lifestyle (with everything you need on the doorstep). There is a village primary school, a secondary school within 3 miles, and the vast array of amenities of Thornbury, Yate and Chipping Sodbury are all within a 15-minute drive. The local pub, the Rose & Crown, serves a wicked Sunday lunch apparently (yet to be verified by us, but looking forward to the invitation!), and there are additional hostelries just down the road in Iron Acton.
