Anyone looking for easy living would do well to check out 10 Sheppard Way, Minchinhampton. This spacious, detached bungalow has a delightful level garden and is only a gentle flat stroll away from the charming market town of Minchinhampton – and only a stone’s throw from hundreds of acres of National Trust common land.

The property is set in a popular residential road and offers an entrance hall, large lounge/diner, good-sized kitchen, a delightful garden room that is full of sun and has lovely views over the south-facing garden, two double bedrooms with built-in wardrobes, one single bedroom and a large shower room. The bungalow is in a good condition but would benefit from some updating.

The generous gardens are a real feature of the property. There is a patio area and a lovely level lawn, bordered by mature shrubs and bushes, such as fragrant lavender and buddleia, which attract the bees and butterflies. There is a doorway into the garage at the back from the patio. The single garage can also be accessed via an electric up and over door from the large driveway at the front, where there is parking for 4/5 cars, as well as an area of lawn and a large mature tree.

The property is within walking distance of the amenities of Minchinhampton. This ancient market town sits on the edge of Minchinhampton Common and is made up of pretty stone cottages, many dating back to the medieval wool trade. There is a weekly country market and charming cafes, as well as a butcher, grocer and post office. The town also has a doctors’ surgery, community library, well-regarded primary school and a stylish camra award-winning pub, The Crown Inn. There are breath-taking views from the common, which sits on the Cotswold escarpment, and offers a golf course and excellent walking, riding and gliding opportunities. The National Trust common is also known for its free-roaming horses and cows, rare orchids and butterflies – and is home to the famous Giffords Circus every summer. The town’s good looks have also attracted film crews and famous residents, including the Princess Royal, who lives at Gatcombe Park. More extensive facilities are available in nearby Nailsworth and Stroud. Junctions of the M4 and M5 motorways are within easy reach and railway stations at Stroud (6 Miles) and Kemble (10 miles) provide main line services to Gloucester, Swindon and London.
