Features and description

  • Freehold
A beautiful four bedroom property dating back to 1691 that has been tastefully renovated and modernised in recent years and is located in Bridgend around 0.5 miles from Stonehouse town. This location allows for easy access to the shops, amenities and train station of Stonehouse whilst the canal and country walks are on the doorstep. The ground floor comprises a tastefully modernised fitted kitchen complete with fitted appliances such as a fridge/freezer and dishwasher, Belfast sink, window seat and underfloor heating, a utility room and downstairs w/c, charming dual aspect living room with parquet flooring and inglenook fireplace housing the woodburning stove, large understairs storage area, traditional entrance hallway and dual aspect second reception room currently set up as a dining/games room. On the first floor is a bright landing ascended to from a wide stair case, dual aspect master bedroom with original shutters, dressing room and access to the ‘Jack-&-Jill’ bathroom and a third bedroom. The top floor is home to another large landing giving access to the attic storage, shower room, fourth bedroom with built in storage and large dual aspect second bedroom where you are impressed with an array of wooden beams and frames. Windows to the front of the property enjoy a southerly aspect over the gardens so are enjoyed from most rooms. The property benefits from gas central heating and a mixture of double glazing and original windows including some sashes with character features throughout from the aforementioned window seats and stone mullions to the exposed stone, beams and shutters. The current vendors have thoroughly improved the property throughout which is clear to see in this impressive house, from the boiler to pointing and bathrooms to decoration so please do ask any questions around works carried out.

The interior is complemented by the property sitting in a generous plot with a large garden in front of and to the side of the house which is accessed from the kitchen and hall as well as the double gates from the road. The charming level garden is mainly laid with lawn, has well-established borders with raised beds and mature trees but also benefits from three outdoor seating areas – one with a covered area under a pergola and one covered decking at the end of the garden by the bridge over the River Frome. There is a stone chipped area for ample driveway parking as well as a shed.

Bridgend is on the outskirts of Stonehouse and backs on to the countryside so benefits from lovely walks as well as being close to the canal and towpath. Nearby Stonehouse has seen many changes over the years, and considerable growth, but remains a friendly little town with a big heart and a proud community spirit. It is a great place to live, with a wide range of housing, a direct railway line to London, primary and secondary schools and a location just 2.5 miles from the M5 motorway. Stonehouse has all the facilities one would expect of a small town, including a gp surgery, Co-op, three playing fields, pubs and a bustling High Street with independent shops, restaurants and cafes. The town is also the location for Wycliffe College, a private school with boarding facilities. But in keeping with the rest of the Stroud area, residents are never far from stunning scenery. The Stroudwater Canal runs through Stonehouse and the town is also on the doorstep of beautiful Doverow Hill and a lovely cycle trail which runs to Nailsworth. There has been large scale building to the west with the creation of a major new housing estate and school at Great Oldbury, near the motorway.
