The beautifully presented home has wooden beams, flagstone floors and an inglenook fireplace

Dreaming of living in a cosy countryside cottage? Well, this beautifully presented Grade II listed Cotswold home is now for sale in the charming village of Brockhampton for £615,000.

Dating from the 17th century and occupying a private south west facing plot, The Quarry extends to approximately 1,087 square feet and sits on just over a quarter of an acre. Like a little slice of countryside paradise, the cottage retains idyllic period features including stone mullion windows, wooden beams, flagstone floors and an inglenook fireplace (fitted with a wood burner).

The home might have been built over 300 years ago, but previous owners have tastefully updated it with modern additions. Inside, you'll find an open-plan kitchen/breakfast room with dusty blue cabinets, a cosy sitting room, two double bedrooms, a spacious landing, and a recently fitted family bathroom. There's also a rather delightful garden room with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the outside space.

We're big fans of the private gardens, which have been arranged over three main terraces that step from the lane down to the bottom of this small valley. Landscaped and beautifully planted, you'll find plenty of space for alfresco entertaining, buzzing beehives, and a large lawn area peppered with pretty flowers.

Complimenting the house and garden, there is also another versatile stone building that was originally a small forge. While this is currently used as storage, agents explain it would make a practical home office or potentially ancillary accommodation. Set in a beautiful valley in Gloucestershire, the local village comprises of a mixture of Cotswold stone houses, shops, coffee shops, and a much-loved pub. If you're after somewhere with a slower pace, then this place is just for you.

This property is currently on the market for £615,000 with Knight Frank.
