Grade II listed Georgian house with paddocks and equestrian facilities.
Description
Surrounded by the beautiful, unspoilt countryside of the small hamlet of Holcombe Glen is this impressive Grade II listed Georgian country estate. The house itself has been extensively modernised and is beautifully appointed to a high standard throughout, with its grand proportions complemented by elegant décor: Tiled floors, a gallery staircase, a built-in fireplace and brand-new kitchen and bathrooms. Improvements also included upgrades to the heating system, including two air source heat pumps, 12kw solar panels and an electric vehicle charger. There are far-reaching views on all sides over the surrounding countryside, gardens and paddocks.
The accommodation is generously proportioned throughout, offering more than 5000 sq ft of space over four floors, including cellars with wine storage and additionally, a large attic. There are three expansive reception rooms, a farmhouse-style kitchen, boot room and WC. On the first floor, the principal bedroom is a good-size room and has an adjoining dressing room and bath/shower room. There are five further bedrooms, one en-suite, and two family bathrooms.
The property, which is attached to the rear, is set within wooded grounds of about nine acres. The house is nestled within landscaped gardens, which feature a fountain, expansive lawns, woodland, terraces for garden furniture and a variety of flowerbeds. The house is approached by a long driveway leading to a large gravel parking area. A highlight of the home are the fantastic equestrian facilities, including paddocks, a block of stables, a separate barn and store, plus an Olympic size rubber fibre Menage, suitable for high level dressage. The equestrian facilities are attractively situated together just a short distance from the house, and there is excellent outriding locally around Holcombe Glen and the commons of Rodborough and Minchinhampton.
Location
The property is situated in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and amidst the beautiful valley scenery of Holcombe Glen, between the villages of Nailsworth and Minchinhampton. Both provide a range of everyday shops, cafes and pubs while Stroud provides more comprehensive facilities including a Waitrose supermarket, cinema and an award-winning farmers market.
The larger centres of Tetbury, Cirencester and Cheltenham provide a wider range of amenities, recreational facilities and cultural activities. Communications are excellent with junction 13 of the M5 motorway being about 8 miles away giving access to Bristol and Birmingham, and junction 18 of the M4 about 16 miles away giving access to London. Trains from Kemble (10.5 miles) or Stroud (5 miles) to London Paddington take approximately 1 hour 30 minutes. Bristol International Airport is about 38 miles away.
Sporting opportunities in the area include golf at Minchinhampton (three courses), racing at Cheltenham, sailing at the Cotswold Water Park, polo at Cirencester Park, gliding at Aston Down as well as local rugby and cricket clubs. There are lovely walks over Minchinhampton and Rodborough Commons where cattle freely roam in the summer months.
There is a wide choice of schools in the area including the highly regarded Marling School for Boys, Stroud High School, Westonbirt School and the colleges in Cheltenham, Wycliffe and Rendcomb. The renowned prep school, Beaudesert Park, is on Minchinhampton Common and there is a local primary school in Minchinhampton.
Directions
From Cirencester, follow the A419 west towards Minchinhampton. On Minchinhampton Common, take the first left (at Tom Longs Post) signposted Nailsworth. At the bottom of The W, take a left turn on to Pensile Road. Drive along Pensile Road for approximately ¾ of a mile, and you will see the entrance to the property on your right.
