The remarkable home is tucked away in Wolverley, near Kidderminster in Worcestershire, as reported by Luxury Property News.
One of the three bedrooms is set inside the cave itself, giving the home a truly one-of-a-kind interior.
The dwelling was originally carved from sandstone and is closely linked to the famous Kinver Edge Rock Houses.
It sits within 2.5 acres of landscaped gardens, complete with waterfalls, ornamental ponds and sweeping countryside views.
Town & Country Property Auctions will host the sale, with bidding opening on 11 March.
The cottage also boasts two bathrooms, a spacious lounge and a fully fitted kitchen and dining area.
The current owner’s grandfather, a decorated First World War veteran, bought the property in 1963.
Since then, the family has carefully maintained the home and lovingly tended its gardens for six decades.
A spokesperson for Town & Country Property Auctions said: “Step into a home where history, character, and nature converge.
“Rock Cottage is a 16th-century cave dwelling, discreetly nestled in the Worcestershire countryside.
“Offering privacy, charm, and a sense of timelessness, this is a residence unlike any other in the UK – a true sanctuary away from the bustle of everyday life.
“Dating back to 1511, the cave dwelling was originally carved from sandstone and later enhanced with a traditional 18th-century frontage.
“Its heritage is entwined with the famous Kinver Edge Rock Houses, yet Rock Cottage has remained a private family residence for over 60 years, retaining its originality while being thoughtfully modernised.
