Sage Cottage is a quintessential Cotswold home, set in a village that exudes charm and community atmosphere. Tucked away on Blockley’s peaceful High Street, it sits amongst a row of pretty Cotswold stone cottages and stretches across three floors, with a raised garden at the rear.
On the ground floor, the kitchen is a bright and welcoming space, ready to be filled with the sounds of family gatherings and home-cooked meals. A dedicated coffee corner, complete with a Sage bean-to-cup machine, ensures the perfect start to the day for coffee lovers. The open-plan sitting and dining area is ideal for shared meals that can flow out onto the terrace in warmer months. The reading nook offers a cosy retreat after countryside walks or local adventures and children can enjoy their own space in the snug with its wood burner and TV. There is a handy utility hidden away to one side where you can do any necessary laundry and there's a cloakroom at the end. Upstairs, two beautifully styled bedrooms await on the first floor, one with an en-suite, alongside a family bathroom featuring a roll-top clawfoot bath. French-style furnishings and calm, considered colours continue the cottage’s serene aesthetic. The master bedroom occupies the second floor, complete with a super-king-size bed and en-suite shower room, providing a quiet retreat to read, relax, and enjoy the village views from the window.
Outside, the terraced garden is perfect for al fresco meals or simply soaking up the tranquil pace of village life. BBQs are thoughtfully positioned on the terrace and near the patio doors for convenience. From the front door, walks weave through Blockley and beyond to Broad Campden and Chipping Campden, while a short drive opens up Regency Cheltenham Spa, Stow-on-the-Wold, Chipping Norton, or Stratford-upon-Avon.
