The Property

Occupying a much coveted position, located at the at the foot of Rodborough Common, just over one mile from the centre of Stroud. Boasting elevated views across the valley to Thrupp, this detached period home sits in wonderful gardens with the total plot measuring approximately 0.2 of an acre. In need of complete modernisation the house offers the perfect opportunity for any buyer wishing to put their own stamp on a property, including great potential for extension subject to the relevant planning consent. Constructed in the majority in Cotswold stone with later Edwardian additions, accommodation measuring 2131 sq ft is located across three floors. The original entrance is located on the north side of the property, however, with the main driveway located to the southern boundary the rear entrance is more likely to be used on a day to day basis. Both doors open to the inner hallway off which access is gained to the living space. The kitchen, utility and cloakroom are positioned in the oldest section of the house and would benefit from updating. The generous sitting room measures and impressive 19’7, and with two windows to the lane, boasts a pretty outlook across the valley. A period fireplace forms a warming focal point. Adjoining this room is a second reception room/study, also with a feature fireplace and this time with a double aspect outlook across the valley but also across the rear courtyard. Also located on this floor is snug with French doors opening to the garden. Stairs from the hallway rise to the first floor where two double bedrooms and a family bathroom are position. A second staircase rises to a third attic bedroom.

A gated front access leads through a small front garden to the original entrance. Neighbouring this entrance is a garage on block. The driveway extends to the far end of the garden and leads to an older timber outbuilding, that whilst generous in size would benefiting from attention. Whilst there is currently parking for several vehicles there is room to create further parking if required. The gardens that whilst in needs of some attention are maturely planted, flower borders provide great interest and colour, whilst a manicured Yew Tree and Magnolia Tree are a couple of additional features. A pathway between two areas of lawn provides access from one end of the garden to the other. Steps down and old gate opens onto the lane. An outbuilding adjoins, a potting shed is also in close proximity
