Detached house for sale in Oxleaze Farm Road, Inglestone Common GL9

Rare to the market! Inglestone Common is an idyllic protected area which is found between the villages of Hawkesbury Upton and Wickwar. Its open countryside and rural location is absolutely ideal for those looking for a 'life style' choice, free from traffic and bustle yet still being only minutes drive away from local amenities, village schools and good road links. Formerly two cottages which amalgamated into one, Chapel Close has also had several extensions and a double garage added so offers itself as a very spacious detached family home with excellent living space for the growing family. This beautiful cottage is quite unique in that it has a stunning open vista to the front looking directly over the common where grazing rights (restricted) still apply to the local properties! There is parking for several cars in front of the garage whilst to the side and rear there are very private gardens which are mainly laid to lawn but also have seating areas on a large patio plus a lovely decking area which has been built to enjoy the views. Once inside the property you are greeted by a stylish bespoke kitchen which incorporates a range cooker, quartz tops and sociable breakfast bar. From here you have access to a downstairs shower room, a utility room, sizable garden room, then into a large sitting room (formerly two rooms) with feature fireplace and views over the common. The inner hallway then takes you to the dining room and a front snug/playroom. Upstairs you will find 6 bedrooms the master having an ensuite, whilst bedroom 2 - above the garage - is a great size with far reaching views. Bedroom three also has the advantage of a dressing room or study area, then a modern family bathroom with separate walk-in shower completes the first floor.

Inglestone Common is a beautiful protected area which nestles against the Cotswold Escarpment and includes Lower Woods, a local nature reserve of some 700 acres of ancient woodland. The area is also designated as a Site of Special Scientific Interest and is enjoyed by many walkers, horse riders and cyclists. Sitting equally between the market towns of Wotton under Edge and Chipping Sodbury, there is easy access to the common from the local village of Hawkesbury Upton - just 1.2 miles away - with its two public houses, local shop, post office, tennis and cricket clubs, village hall, primary school and playing fields. Likewise the village of Wickwar and the popular secondary school Katharine Lady Berkeley are a relatively short and easy drive. For commuting the A46 is just 3 miles away whilst the M5 and M4 junctions are 6.4 miles and 8.6 miles away respectively.
