Cirencester, Gloucestershire
Java Cottage is a three-bedroom house that is a quick walk from the town’s market place, which was mentioned in the Domesday Book and where traders still set up stall twice a week. It has a quirky layout: the kitchen/diner is between two reception rooms, one of which has a vaulted ceiling and doors on to a back patio. Also on the ground floor is the family bathroom, though there is a shower room upstairs. There is a terrace seating area at the back but the main garden is at the front. £550,000.
