Description

A handsome detached character home situated in Lansdown, a well regarded road on the edge of Stroud centre. This location is very much part of the vibrant, creative Stroud community, and allows for easy access to the shops, amenities and train station of the town with local parks and country walks also close by. The property is built using traditional methods from Cotswold stone and has been the subject of clever, considered improvement by the current owner over the last five years, with characterful accommodation arranged over three floors. An entrance hall, playroom/study, 14′ sitting room, 19′ kitchen/breakfast room with underfloor heating, cloakroom/W.c and glazed lean to are on the ground floor, with a good 19′ space found above the kitchen. The current owner uses this as a dining area, but it could suit a work from home space, with plenty of room for a couple of desks. A staircase leads up from the entrance hall to the first floor, and there is a super bathroom with roll top bath and window seat and 14′ double bedroom on this floor. Two further bedrooms are found at the top of the house, on the second floor. Tasteful décor complements the well balanced accommodation, and the property is available chain free.

Outside

The interior is complemented by parking and a lovely garden that take in the sound of running water from the nearby Slad Brook. The parking is at road level, with a pull in for a second car, and gated steps that lead down to the house. The level garden is at the rear, with a good paved sitting area by the house with plenty of space for a table and chairs a great entertaining spot. There are shaped lawns and well planted raised borders stocked with a variety of colourful shrubs. There is a shed at the bottom of the plot, and a block built barbeque. The garden is well established and private, with mature trees and planting.
