Property description
A 21’ kitchen/family room, utility room, shower room, sitting room with wood burning stove and a first class 16’ green and steady oak garden room are on the ground floor. An elm staircase leads up to the first floor, to a landing with first floor entrance, two double bedrooms and a bathroom on this floor. There is another double bedroom at the top of the house, on the second floor, and there is also a useful attic room here. There is planning permission to raise the height of the roof and the single storey extension below and this would create another large room at the top of the house and two large en-suite bathrooms. The property is tastefully decorated, and there is character and interest everywhere you look.
The living space is complemented by parking, a garage and lovely gardens. The gated gravelled parking area is at the top of the plot, with space to park several cars. An 18’ double garage with power and light is behind this, and there is a large room over this space. This would be the perfect work from home space, or a games room. Steps then lead down through the garden. Again, there is lots to take in here – the garden has clearly been a real labour of love. This area is terraced and beautifully planted, with established beds stocked with a variety of shrubs and sleeper steps that lead down to the house. There is a useful cloistered store area under the driveway, and a gravelled sitting spot with a pergola over. The steps continue around the side of the house. There is a paved area here and a deck that is strategically placed under a copper beech tree for shade on sunny days. The rear garden is delightful, with a water feature, a gravel path leading to the garden room, and some lovely clipped box hedging. Another gravel sitting spot is set below the garden room and this leads on to a lower terrace with a greenhouse.
The property is situated at the end of a quiet country lane on Minchinhampton Common, a National Trust owned area that comprises hundreds of acres of open land. There is a golf course here, and the space can be used recreationally, with a handful of good pubs and some lovely walks. The property is well positioned for both Nailsworth and Minchinhampton, with shops, amenities and both public and private schooling here. More comprehensive facilities are available in the larger town of Stroud, some three miles distant, with Junctions of the M4 and M5 Motorways within easy reach. Railway stations at Stroud and Kemble provide main line services to Gloucester, Swindon and London Paddington (C. 90 minutes direct).
