Three cosy Cotswold cottages for Valentine's Day – from £500,000 - £995,000

The quintessential English cottage makes the perfect entry into the county living lifestyle for many, while also offering good investment potential. Invariably packed with period features for the all important charm factor, the difficulty can often be finding one!
Butler Sherborn is currently launching three lovely cottages in the Cotswolds as detailed below:
Cross Tree Cottage, Cross Tree Lane, Filkins, Gloucestershire GL7 3JL - £500,000
Four bedrooms, two reception rooms and a bathroom, this semi-detached period cottage sits in around 0.19 acres, and would make a great renovation project for a young couple looking to create a beautiful village home. There are period features throughout, a large garden to the rear and it is well positioned in this popular village which includes the Five Alls pub. Well located to benefit from good road and rail links, the surrounding countryside offers wonderful walking and riding.

Richard Greasby Runs Another Ultra Marathon - Running In a Land Of Fire & Ice
There was a certain inevitability that soon after my double marathon in the Atlas Mountains in 2024 that I would be open to another challenge whilst legs, health and my wonderfully supportive wife Carol allowed. This has all followed a growing, but unplanned, running adventure since 2019 with 14 ultra marathons and over 6000 training miles (including 100-ish half-marathon training runs). Needless to say, my physio is seeing more of me than ever!

Helen Whitfield - Market Comment
The last couple of months over the summer holidays have been unexpectedly busy for the Butler Sherborn residential teams. Traditionally, the property market tends to slow down during the school break, as many families travel abroad and shift their focus away from house hunting. However, the summer of 2025 has defied expectations.

Preparing To Sell Your Home
Instruct a solicitor at an early stage to review your title and title plan before taking your property to market. Obtaining legal advice at the outset allows any potential issues to be identified and addressed in advance, significantly reducing the risk of delays or complications later in the process.
