Dunkirk Mills, Inchbrook

Description

Areas of Dunkirk Mills date back to as early as 1798 and these buildings have vast history and immense character throughout. The original mill buildings were converted to offer residential accommodation about 30 years ago. 1 Coopers Mill is located at the southerly end of this grade II listed complex and has the advantage of its own private entrance overlooking the stream as well as the communal entrance located at the front of the building. Arranged over two floors this very attractive apartment retains a great deal of charm and character features with light and airy accommodation. Communal entrance with front door leading into hallway with exposed stone walls and spiral staircase to the first floor, two bedrooms (principal bedroom with built-in double wardrobe) and recently decorated shower room are on the ground floor with a spiral staircase leading up to a stunning open plan sitting room/dining room with own private back door fronting onto the stream, attractive leaded light window with window shutters and window seat overlooking the grounds. The modern kitchen is less than five years old and incorporate an electric hob and new electric oven.

Location

Nailsworth is home to many independent businesses, selling everything from artisan bread, meat and fish to stationery, fashion and handmade jewellery. Nestling at the bottom of steep wooded hills, Nailsworth is now an attractive and vibrant shopping destination, with a large selection of interesting speciality shops and cafes, including the famous Williams Food Hall and Hobbs House Bakery. It is a quirky and friendly town, with a good selection of restaurants, as well as three supermarkets, a regular farmers’ market and a ‘green’ football club. Nailsworth is well positioned for both town and country. Climb the steep ‘W’ hill out of town and you find yourself on acres of stunning National Trust common land, home to a prestigious golf course. The town is also on the doorstep of beautiful Woodchester Park, with miles of woodland walks and secluded lakes. Yet just four miles away is Stroud, with more comprehensive shopping, educational and leisure facilities, connected by bus services. Junctions of the M4 and M5 motorways are within easy reach and railway stations at Stroud (3.5 miles) and Kemble (10 miles) provide main line services to Gloucester, Swindon and London Paddington.
