Adjacent to Minchinhampton Common and set in half an acre, an individual house providing potential for improvement
Description
Chandelle is a 1970's house which backs on to the common and has been in the current ownership since new. As such it provides plenty of potential to improve or re-model. The light and airy accommodation is split level with the sitting room and conservatory at an elevated level. The conservatory also opens onto a roof terrace from which there are distant views. The kitchen and dining room are at entrance level with a second conservatory being positioned off the kitchen thus being a suitable breakfast room. The four bedrooms are found on the lower ground floor.
The gardens and grounds are a wonderful feature of the property and are a haven for wildlife. They mainly extend to the west and south of the house and are interspersed with specimen trees including Scots Pine, Sycammore, Ash, Oak and Elm. However, of particular note is the colourful array of spring bulbs as well as a a wide variety of wild orchids. Within the garden is a timber store and greenhouse. A Cotswold stone wall divides the house from the common. To the front of the house there is private parking in front of the double garage which interconnects with the house. In all the property extends to just over half an acre.
Location
Bownham Park is an exclusive residential development one time being the grounds of a former country house and situated on the north side of Minchinhampton Common. The estate is also close to Rodborough Common – an area of about 300 acres owned by the National Trust in an area designated as being of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
There is a broad choice of state and private schools in the area including primary schools in Minchinhampton and Amberley, Beaudesert Preparatory School on Minchinhampton Common, Wycliffe Cottage at Stonehouse along with Marlings School for boys and Stroud High School for girls.
There are many and varied recreational activities in the area. Casual golfers will enjoy the old Minchinhampton golf course where players need to avoid the free roaming cows. On the opposite side of the town are the two new courses at Minchinhampton Golf Club, one with a parkland style and the other with links characteristics.
Communications in the area are excellent with rail services available from Stroud and Kemble Stations, connecting with London Paddington, the journey time being about 1.5 hours. Road networks radiate through the region to the larger centres of Cheltenham, Gloucester and Swindon and the motorway network (M4 and M5) provides fast road links to Bristol, London and the Midlands.

0.52 Acres
