A charming, recently renovated Cotswold cottage in an elevated position above Nailsworth with a large kitchen/diner, a sitting room, two double bedrooms, modern bathroom, garden and garage, close to both town and country walks
If you enjoy cooking and entertaining and are looking for a large, light-filled kitchen/diner which flows easily out into the garden on sunny days, then try Trymside. This charming semi-detached Cotswold stone cottage has been beautifully renovated and extended by the current owners to offer a superb modern kitchen/dining room on the ground floor, with bi-fold doors that open out onto a lovely patio and landscaped garden. This immaculate home offers stylish modern living combined with Cotswold cottage charm, with exposed stone walls, window seats and an inglenook fireplace among the features thoughtfully retained by the owners. The cottage also offers a stunning new bathroom and bags of clever storage. The cottage is situated in an elevated spot just above Nailsworth - with easy access to both the shops and amenities of the town, and country walks just up the road.
The property is built using traditional methods from Cotswold stone under a pitched roof, with character accommodation arranged over three floors. On the ground floor, there is a useful porch, a sitting room with a wood-burning stove and built-in storage and the lovely kitchen/dining room. A stylish double bedroom with a wall of built-in storage units and the spacious bathroom are on the first floor, while another good-sized double bedroom can be found on the second floor. This has a useful nook with a desk in it, that could be used as a work-from-home space. The property is beautifully decorated throughout in contemporary colours, and benefits from both central heating and double glazing.
The stylish interior is complemented by an equally stylish garden, with a large patio area for relaxing and steps up to a small lawn and shingle area and then further onto a garage. There is a small parking space on the driveway in front of the garage. Trymside has a right of access across the driveway in front of the neighbours’ garage to its front gate.
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 even more comprehensive shopping, educational and leisure facilities, well connected by bus services. Junctions of the M4 and M5 motorways are within easy reach and railway stations at Stroud (4 miles) and Kemble (10 miles) provide main line services to Gloucester, Swindon and London Paddington.
