Pearcroft Gardens, Stonehouse, GL10

2 Pearcroft Gardens is a beautifully presented house in a great position at the entrance to sought after Pearcroft Road, Stonehouse. This location allows for easy level access to the shops, amenities and train station of the town, with country walks just up the lane. The property is built using traditional methods from red brick under a pitched roof, and was apparently once part of a larger house, which explains the generous room sizes and pervading sense of space. The current owner bought the property some five years ago, and has completely transformed the house in that time. 

This is a stylish, well considered home, with real attention to detail to the fit and finish throughout. A good entrance hall greets you, with a sitting room with a fireplace with wood burning stove to the left, at the front of the house. This is our first taste of the high ceilings and large windows that are found throughout the property. A kitchen/dining room is to the right of the hall, with plenty of space to cook, eat and relax here. The eye is drawn here to clever design touches and a remarkably high standard of finish, from the expertly fitted Baltic Ply kitchen, inspired by the ultra trendy Wood & Wire kitchen company, to the change in floor finish between the kitchen and dining areas. There's a utility room beyond this, and a shower room with contemporary fittings at the back of the property. A staircase with storage underneath leads up from the hall to the first floor, with a landing, bathroom with separate shower cubicle and two double bedrooms on this level. You're immediately aware of amount of light and sense of space when you walk into either of these bedrooms. It's an experience that's usually reserved for larger, more expensive properties, and something that's bound to appeal to prospective buyers.

The property benefits from parking, a detached garage and long rear garden. The garage is to the side of the house, with an up and over door and personal door. The parking is to the front of this, with a gated side access that leads to the back garden. There is a level area immediately by the house, with steps up to a long garden with a shed.

Stonehouse has a busy high street with numerous facilities including a train station with inter city services travelling to London (Paddington), a dentist, doctor’s surgery and various shops, pubs and eateries. 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 as well as. 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. Cirencester (10 miles), Cheltenham (15 miles) and Swindon (25 miles) are all within comfortable driving distance.
