Brantwood Road, Chalford Hill, Stroud, GL6

The Vicarage is a light, airy detached house in a super spot opposite the village playing field in ever popular Chalford Hill. There is a friendly, inclusive local community here, with good schools and pubs close by and country walks just up the road. The current owners saw huge potential in the property when they purchased the house in 2017, and set about creating a brilliant home here. This is immediately obvious upon entry, with welcoming, spacious accommodation arranged over two floors. 

You walk into a good entrance area which opens to the inner hall. A cloakroom/W.c is on the right, with the kitchen/family room at the end of the hall. This 24' room is very much the heart of the home, with space to cook, eat, entertain and relax and glazed doors that open on to the garden at the rear. A doorway leads from this space into a 17' sitting room, and this room also has glazed doors at the rear, connecting the inside with the outside. A useful utility room and large work room/studio are also on the ground floor. The latter measures 17' x 15' and is wonderfully flexible. It could be used as a work from home space, a studio or a generous play room, depending on the buyer's requirements. A staircase leads up from the hall to the first floor, past a large picture window with a view out over the Pleasure Ground at the front, A landing, 14' principal bedroom with en suite shower room with underfloor heating, guest bedroom with en suite W.c, family bathroom with underfloor heating and two further bedrooms are on this level. All in all a well considered, beautifully presented house, and a must for any viewing list.

The property benefits from a drive with parking for several cars, a garage and a level, sunny rear garden. Set behind a traditional Cotswold dry stone wall, the property is very much part of the village street scene. There is a good outlook over the playing field at the front, with the drive at the front of the house. This is gated, with an established planted border edging this space. The garage is at the end of the drive, with a useful shed to the side. The majority of the garden is at the rear - a south facing, sunny area, mostly laid to lawn. A variety of mature trees, shrubs, and well-chosen plants create a green, peaceful backdrop. A raised terrace provides an ideal spot for dining or relaxing in the sun, with space around it that could easily accommodate further planting or personal landscaping touches. In addition to the garage and neighbouring shed, there is another useful shed tucked away in the lovely garden.

Chalford Hill is a well regarded hilltop village a few miles East of Stroud. There is a friendly, inclusive community here, with good local amenities including several well regarded schools, public houses, a café and a petrol station/garage. Nearby Bussage benefits from a doctors' surgery, a chemist, a convenience store and Chinese take away. 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 centre and a main line railway station with inter city services travelling to London (Paddington). Cirencester (10 miles), Cheltenham (15 miles) and Swindon (25 miles) are all within comfortable driving distance.
