Description

This property comprises two semi-detached cottages located in the center of Lydbrook, presenting a compelling opportunity for renovation and investment. Both cottages are in need of extensive refurbishment and offer significant potential for transformation into desirable holiday rentals or into a spacious family home, pending necessary planning permissions. Each cottage retains charming features such as fireplaces and ample natural light, while their position provides elevated views over the surrounding valley from the gardens that extend half an acre to the rear. With appropriate renovations, these properties could yield excellent returns in this sought-after location. The first cottage includes a typical layout with a lounge, kitchen, dining room, two bedrooms, and a bathroom. The second cottage mirrors this arrangement but boasts more living space with its own unique character. Both properties are connected to essential services including mains drainage and gas supply, yet require comprehensive upgrades to meet modern living standards. Outdoor space offers opportunities for landscaping or perhaps developing outdoor seating areas that capitalize on the stunning views. Overall, these cottages represent an exciting project for developers or investors looking to create value through renovation.
