The ground floor comprises an entrance hallway that gives access to the 11’ converted basement room which is currently used as an office/studio and guest bedroom, a 12’ living room, 11’ sitting room with woodburning stove, the stunning open plan kitchen/dining/living room with integrated appliances and bi-fold doors to the rear garden, a utility room with vaulted ceiling, ample storage cupboards and a downstairs w/c.

Windows to the front of the property enjoy a South/South westerly aspect towards Butterrow so is particularly enjoyed from the two front bedrooms. The property benefits from gas central heating and a mixture of double glazing whilst there are character features including sash windows, fire places and wooden flooring. The current vendors have improved the property by reconfiguring upstairs to make more usable bedroom space as well as converting the garage at the end of the garden to the stunning 16’ studio with woodburner, shower room and kitchenette area.

The interior is complemented by having a good-size family rear garden accessed from the kitchen, utility room or top of garden. The garden has a patio seating area and level courtyard currently housing a swimming pool with steps up to lawn above where there are established borders, fruit trees and the 16’ studio and parking for two cars in front.

Stroud town benefits from an award winning weekly farmers market as well as a variety of local independent shops and stores, pubs serving locally supplied beers and ciders and plenty of cafes, bars and restaurants to eat and socialise. The recently opened “Five Valleys” shopping centre is of particular note and is certainly worth a visit for a range of market stalls, food stalls and stores. The wider area has a range of shops and amenities, including supermarkets, a hospital, state and private schools, a leisure and sports centre and a main line railway station with inter city services travelling to London (Paddington).
