Churchill Close, Nailsworth, GL6

5 Churchill Close has been in the same ownership since 1992 and has served as a much loved family home. Located in a peaceful cul-de-sac with no through traffic, it is ideally positioned near a pedestrian footpath known as Dark Lane, providing access to the town of Nailsworth and its well regarded primary school at the top of the hill.

The house has recently been redecorated and re-carpeted, though the kitchen and bathroom would benefit from modernisation, offering a great opportunity for a buyer to put their own stamp on the property. The accommodation is well proportioned and arranged over two floors. The entrance porch leads into a hallway with stairs to the first floor. The kitchen is positioned at the front of the house and, while in need of updating, has the potential to be relocated into the garage (subject to the necessary consents). The dining area is a generous space with two glazed doors leading into a light and airy single-storey extension, currently used as the main sitting room, which enjoys lovely views over the garden and valley beyond. Upstairs, there is a landing, three double bedrooms all with attractive views and a family bathroom in need of modernisation.

The property is approached via a driveway offering side by side parking for two vehicles. The integral garage has an electric roller door and is ideal for storage or conversion into additional living space (subject to consent). A side gate provides access to the rear garden, which is south facing, private, and well maintained. There is a decked area perfect for summer entertaining and barbecues, a useful garden shed, and boundaries enclosed by fencing and mature hedges.

Nailsworth is home to many independent businesses, selling everything from artisan bread, meat and fish to stationery, fashion and handmade jewellery. Nestling at the bottom of steep wooded hills, Nailsworth is now an attractive and vibrant shopping destination, with a large selection of interesting speciality shops and cafes, including the famous Williams Food Hall and Hobbs House Bakery. It is a quirky and friendly town, with a good selection of restaurants, as well as three supermarkets, a regular farmers’ market and a ‘green’ football club. Nailsworth is well positioned for both town and country. Climb the steep ‘W’ hill out of town and you find yourself on acres of stunning National Trust common land, home to a prestigious golf course. The town is also on the doorstep of beautiful Woodchester Park, with miles of woodland walks and secluded lakes. Yet just four miles away is Stroud, with more comprehensive shopping, educational and leisure facilities, connected by bus services. Junctions of the M4 and M5 motorways are within easy reach and railway stations at Stroud (4 miles) and Kemble (10 miles) provide main line services to Gloucester, Swindon and London Paddington.
