A handsome three storey semi detached Victorian Villa situated on a community focused private road on the edge of Stroud with a 15′ sitting room with bay window, connecting 15′ dining room, four bedrooms, a garage and parking and a private, sunny rear garden.
2 Glenroy Villas is a substantial semi detached character home situated on Uplands Road, a private no through road on the edge of Stroud. This location allows for easy access to the shops, amenities and train station and is very much part of the inclusive, creative community of our wonderful town. This is a handsome Victorian house, with an imposing facade and some very attractive detailing to the front elevation. It is constructed from red brick using traditional methods, and has been the subject of improvement by the current owners. They have fitted new windows, installed solar panels and have removed the wall between the sitting room and dining room, creating a first class open living space. An entrance hall, 15' sitting room with bay window and fireplace, connecting 15' dining room with glazed double doors that open onto the garden are on the ground floor. A landing, three bedrooms and a large bathroom are on the first floor, with an 18' principal bedroom with en suite shower room at the top of the house. The property is full of light, and the windows at the front take in a view over the chimney pots of Slad Road and Lansdown. A welcoming home, with character and interest everywhere you look - a must view in our opinion.
Outside you'll find a garage, parking, and a private, sunny garden. Steps lead up to the front door past a paved front courtyard with a view over the chimney pots of Stroud. The majority of the garden is at the rear of the house, which can be accessed from the house or from the rear. Glazed double doors open from the dining room onto this area, connecting the inside with the outside. The rear garden is terraced. and arranged as two main areas. The first space is paved, with an outdoor kitchen - the perfect space to relax, eat and entertain. Steps then lead up to a level lawn, with the garage/workshop, with solar panels installed on the roof and the parking space at the top of the plot, accessed from Springfield Road. Borders stocked with a variety of established planting edge the garden, with pretty Uplands church as a backdrop.
