Property Oracle says ..
This charming cottage is located in Lower Lydbrook, nestled in the picturesque Forest of Dean. The property boasts 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, spanning 1,003 square feet, and sits on a plot of 1,203.50 square feet. The images reveal a property that has undergone recent modernisation, blending traditional character with contemporary updates. The kitchen and bathrooms appear to be newly fitted, while original features, such as fireplaces and wooden flooring, have been retained. The property benefits from a conservatory offering views of the surrounding countryside. The external space is relatively compact, but well-maintained and includes a patio area. The average house price in Lydbrook is £250,983, with an average price per square foot of £255. This cottage, listed at £465,000, is significantly above the average. However, the larger plot size and the apparent high-quality renovation work may justify the higher price. Nearby properties, such as The White House (£410,000), suggest that prices in the area can vary considerably depending on size, condition, and features. Further analysis of comparable properties with similar specifications would be needed to determine the precise value. The property’s location in Lydbrook offers proximity to Lydbrook Primary School (1.42km), rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted. Other primary schools are within a reasonable driving distance. While the immediate vicinity lacks public transportation details, the location within the Forest of Dean provides access to numerous walking and cycling trails.
Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
