London Road, Thrupp, Stroud, GL5

An attractive three storey, three/four bedroom red-brick period property situated on London Road in Thrupp around 1.5 miles from Stroud town centre. Thrupp is well known locally for its good community and allows for easy access to the shops, amenities and train station of Stroud with Stroud Brewery, Thrupp Primary School and walks all close by. The ground floor comprises an entrance porch/hallway with cloak cupboard, 14’ sitting room with open fire and a 14’ kitchen/dining room with kitchen that was updated and reconfigured around 10 years ago housing an integrated oven, fridge/freezer and gas hob whilst giving access to the rear. On the first floor is a landing, 11’ master bedroom with two windows and en-suite shower room, 6’ study/office which could be used as a nursery and a four piece bathroom with separate shower and handy built in storage cupboards. The top floor is home to two 12’ bedrooms both with two windows and one that has a large walk-in wardrobe/storage area. There is a handy loft area that has been boarded and accessed via a pull down ladder. Windows to the front of the property have a sunny south westerly aspect over fields towards Butterrow whilst windows to the rear look over the gardens. The property benefits from gas central heating and a mixture of double glazing along with solar panels on the front elevation providing electricity when the sun is out whilst the vendor has a feed-in tariff as well. The current vendor has improved the property by replacing the rear elevation of the roof, landscaping and redoing the front steps, replacing the fire place as well as replacing and building the outbuilding to the rear.

The interior is complemented by having a long terraced garden at the rear accessed from the kitchen or from the top via the parking space. The garden has been landscaped and benefits from a 10’ red-brick outbuilding, a stone chipped area, a lawn, drying area/terrace and the parking space. There is stepped pedestrian access to the front with a patio area with ample on-street parking below.

Thrupp and Brimscombe has a booming friendly community with a mixed demographic, well-established primary schools, a shop, hairdressers, the prestigious Stroud Brewery which is renowned for its local organic beer and wood fired pizzas as well as the recently renovated village pub - The Ship.
