Full description
This original single storey forester's cottage stands in two thirds of an acre of ground in an idyllic setting in the heart of the Forest of Dean. This peaceful, tranquil location is an unspoiled oasis bordered by a SSSI, 'Site of Special Scientific Interest'. This spacious single storey dwelling has late 19th Century origins with modern additions. Accommodation includes a warm cosy sitting room with original fireplace and wood burning stove, a family kitchen dining room and separate utility/boot room. There are three bedrooms with master en-suite and study/bedroom four. A large lower ground store room lends itself to potential home office, gym or hobby room. The garden and informal orchard are completely organic, a haven for a wide variety of birds and visiting wildlife. Perch Cottage is a unique property in a lovely rural but not isolated location.
