Park Road

Description

Nestled in one of Nailsworth’s most sought after streets, Glenholme is a stunning double fronted detached red brick house that captures the essence of character, charm, and comfort. With its close proximity to the bustling town centre, offering a delightful array of independent shops, cafes, and restaurants, as well as scenic country walks just up the road, this home enjoys the perfect balance of town and country living.  Owned for the past nine years, Glenholme has been beautifully maintained and benefits from a thoughtful extension by a previous owner, creating a warm and inviting family home. The two-story extension, which includes a utility/WC, enhances the space, while the property’s light-filled and relaxed atmosphere can be felt throughout

Upon entering the home, you are welcomed by an entrance lobby with stairs leading to the first floor. To the left, the spacious sitting room awaits, featuring a beautiful bay window, a cast iron log burning stove, and bespoke built-in bookshelves – the perfect spot to unwind. Adjacent to this, the family room offers stripped pine floorboards and another bay window overlooking the front garden, inviting plenty of natural light. A fantastic kitchen, complemented by an oak extension, provides a wonderful dining area and an ideal space for entertaining. There’s also a convenient utility/boot room, with direct access to the rear garden, and a cloakroom for added convenience. Upstairs continues to impress with its light and airy feel. The principal and second bedrooms benefit from charming sash windows, while the third bedroom enjoys stunning views over the valley towards Beaudesert School and Watledge. The family bathroom, though requiring some updating, remains functional, and a loft hatch with a pull down ladder provides additional storage.

Outside

The property is approached via wrought iron double gates, leading to a lovely gravelled garden with a driveway that provides off road parking, complete with an EV charging point. A detached garage, cleverly converted into a versatile office/studio space, perfect for working from home.

At the rear of the property, a level garden offers an oasis of calm, a rarity in this hilly town. This delightful outdoor space is perfect for relaxing or entertaining, with lovely views to admire. A well established lawn area is complemented by a mature fruit tree and hedging, creating a peaceful and private space.

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 (4 miles) and Kemble (10 miles) provide main line services to Gloucester, Swindon and London Paddington.
