Cirencester is rich in architectural character, from centuries-old Cotswold stone cottages to elegant Georgian homes and sympathetically converted buildings. These properties are beautiful, but they often come with layers of history, alterations and hidden defects that require a far more detailed inspection than a standard report.
That’s why Cornerstone Surveyors provide a RICS Level 3 Survey for buyers who need real depth, clarity and expert guidance before committing.
