Set in the most picturesque setting with wonderful views across the valley. This three storey detached family home takes centre stage on an elevated plot tucked away off the Bisley Road, such a secluded location.

The property is situated within a few minutes drive or a leisurely walk to all Stroud has to offer.

We understand the property was built in the 1850's in Cotswold stone, the grounds are believed to be in the region of a fifth of an acre (this is an approximate and has not been measured). The Lawn provides accommodation over three floors and was extended 18 years ago.

The current owners have enjoyed the property as a family home for some 40 years.

On approach, parking for two cars with steps leading to the property, having grounds to the front with a secluded sun terrace to take in the views.

Internally access is via the garden room with a door leading directly into the entrance hall. Stairs to the first floor and doors to receptions.

The property benefits from an additional space that with a little adaption, could be a great granny annex/self-contained space if required. The accommodation provides a sitting room opening to dining area, bathroom and a large double bedroom with door to rear hallway of the house and access to rear terrace.

Breakfast family room is truly the heart of the house providing a wealth of natural light with windows to the front elevation, a perfect space for family gatherings open plan to the fitted Kitchen. Tiled flooring throughout with a door leading to the rear hallway. Fitted kitchen in a soft Wedgewood blue providing a range of base and wall mounted cabinets, with a freestanding Rangemaster multi fuel cooker taking center stage with space for further appliances. Belfast sink perfectly located to take in the view. From the rear hallway access to the utility room, downstairs bedroom and outside.

On approach to the first-floor landing you are greeted with natural light views to the front with a door leading to further receptions and door to the family bathroom. This landing is further complemented by exposed stonework with stairs going to the second floor.

Stunning sitting room having window to the front elevation, fireplace and oak flooring throughout leading in to a cosy snug with French doors to outside A door leads to a home office/playroom having window to two elevations. From this room you lead into the most delightful studio, having window to both elevations with access to a wrap around terrace and balcony.

Second floor doors lead to four bedrooms and a family shower room.

We feel that any prospective purchaser needs to take into consideration some internal modernisation is required. We do feel that the property offers incredible versatile internal space over three floors.
