an attractive four-bedroom detached house enjoying a peaceful and idyllic location within a private road.

The Property

Set along one of Painswick’s most sought-after private roads, just a short stroll from the village centre, this attractive 1930s detached house has been thoughtfully updated and reconfigured by the current owner to suit modern living. Predominantly arranged over one floor, the property also benefits from a superb first floor principal bedroom suite enjoying far reaching countryside views. The entrance hall provides access to three ground floor bedrooms, one of which is currently used as a flexible study/home office. The charming sitting room features a bay fronted window, a distinctive door opening onto the front garden and patio, a feature fireplace with mantel, and a bright dual aspect outlook. The dining room has stairs rising to the first floor and at the opposite end, an archway flows through into the kitchen, fitted with a range of wall and base units, a single drainer sink, plumbing for a dishwasher, a gas cooker point, and a useful walk in pantry cupboard with additional storage nearby. The kitchen enjoys a rear aspect and direct access to the garden, and in turn leads to a practical utility area with further storage units and plumbing for both a washing machine and tumble dryer. The ground floor bathroom is fitted with a panelled bath with Mira shower over, part tiled walls, WC, and wash hand basin. Occupying the first floor, the principal bedroom enjoys stunning views across the front garden and surrounding countryside. It is complemented by an en suite shower room featuring a heated towel rail, vanity unit with wash hand basin, and WC. A discreet doorway from the bedroom also provides easy access to a spacious loft storage area. The property is heated by gas central heating and has mains drainage. Ofcom rates the broadband reception available as superfast and the mobile reception as good.

Outside

Approached via a stylish block paved driveway providing ample parking, the property immediately creates an impressive first impression. The driveway also gives access to the detached double garage, while steps rise to the beautifully landscaped gardens, predominantly laid to lawn. To the front of the property, a generous patio enjoys panoramic views across the surrounding rolling countryside, creating a wonderful space for entertaining or simply relaxing outdoors. For keen gardeners, there is a productive vegetable plot complete with rhubarb and gooseberry bushes, together with a greenhouse. The gardens are further enhanced by a variety of mature trees and shrubs, including lilac trees, a striking acer, irises and alliums, providing colour and interest throughout the seasons. A further patio area sits to the side of the property, perfectly suited to al fresco dining or enjoying a peaceful morning coffee.
