Silver Street, Chalford Hill, GL6

2 Litfield Cottages is a charming character property, offering flexible and well proportioned accommodation. The cottage has been well maintained and upgraded by the vendor, and recent works include lovely double glazed aluminium windows, the addition of new engineered oak flooring, and replacement radiators. The cottage has been redecorated throughout with a palate of colours chosen from Little Greene and The Paint and Paper company. With an elegant and neutral backdrop of Little Greene’s Portland Stone, pops of colour ( Chinese Emperor Yellow, and Jaipur Pink, and Leather) add warmth to the property. Entrance is through a useful hallway with storage, into a generous main reception room, with lovely stone mullion picture windows looking onto the garden. A new engineered oak floor adds a contemporary touch. Upstairs is another generous reception room with fitted bookshelves, stripped pine flooring and a double aspect offering views. Currently arranged as a cosy snug, the room’s 12’ proportions would allow this easily to become a double bedroom, or with a sofa bed can offer versatile use as an occasional additional guest bedroom. The bathroom is situated on this floor. Upstairs are 2 bedrooms. The main bedroom again with double aspect offers glorious views over the valley. An airing cupboard provides additional useful storage.

The south facing cottage garden is to the front of the property. The garden bursts into colour in the spring, and extends well into the autumn. Given the position of the property up a peaceful footpath, a rose covered trellis, and the glorious Medlar tree, provide both privacy and shade. It is a charming spot to read and take an early morning cuppa or evening drink. Or both!
