The Property
Elegant 3-Bedroom Bath Stone Home with Parking – 15 Minutes from Bath
Originally a dairy, this beautifully restored double-fronted stone cottage in Colerne was converted into a two-storey home in 1894. Full of period character, it offers a private courtyard garden and off-street parking—rare in this sought-after village.
Framed by original sash windows, the Bath stone exterior gives the house real presence from the street. Inside, the front sitting room features exposed beams and a large Bath stone fireplace—an impressive original feature that anchors the space with warmth and character.
Beyond this, the dining area sits beneath another exposed beam and has solid oak flooring underfoot, bringing a natural warmth to the room. This leads through to the hallway, which is finished with practical stone tile flooring and provides access to a useful utility space and WC, neatly tucked under the stairs and lit by a small window.
At the rear, the kitchen combines traditional materials with practical modern touches. Deep green cabinetry, wooden worktops, and exposed beams give it a classic cottage feel, while skylights bring in natural light and underfloor heating adds comfort. A stable door opens directly out onto the courtyard garden.
Upstairs, the master bedroom serves as a peaceful retreat, featuring built-in wardrobes, a practical window seat, and plenty of natural light from large windows with shutters. The second bedroom is a versatile space, ideal as a home office or guest room, supported by business-grade broadband for seamless remote work or streaming. The third bedroom is a well-lit single room, perfect for a child or guest, with skylights enhancing its bright and airy feel. The family bathroom offers both luxury and functionality, equipped with a full-sized bathtub and a separate glass-enclosed shower, designed for modern comfort.
Outside, the private courtyard garden provides a low-maintenance space for outdoor dining or relaxation. Off-street parking for two cars—a rare feature in Colerne—adds convenience, while a rear entrance and ample storage space offer practicality for everyday living.
Built for modern living, the property includes super-fast business-grade broadband, making it perfect for remote work, streaming, or running a home-based business. Colerne’s warm community spirit shines through, with local pubs, a general store, two doctor surgeries, a village hall, and Colerne C of E Primary School all within walking distance. For commuters, Bath is just a 15-minute drive (7 miles), with London Paddington accessible in 75 minutes via train from Chippenham Station, and Junctions 17 and 18 of the M4 provide easy road access.
This home offers a rare chance to enjoy Cotswold living with modern amenities, ideal for families, professionals, or those seeking a peaceful countryside escape.
