Bussage, Stroud, GL6

Situated in an elevated position in Old Bussage is this charming four-bedroom detached period home that retains many of its original character, including exposed stonework, beams and mullion windows. Upon entering through the stone porch, you're welcomed into a hallway that provides access to the sitting room on your left and the kitchen straight ahead. The kitchen/breakfast room features a variety of wall and base units, along with freestanding appliances. Steps from the kitchen lead up to a conservatory that overlooks the rear garden, with French doors opening to the outside. The cosy sitting room, measuring 20’6 x 15’, boasts an impressive inglenook fireplace, exposed beams and mullion windows with views of both the front and rear aspects. On the first floor, you'll find two bedrooms and the family bathroom. The main bedroom, measuring 15’ x 14’, includes built-in wardrobes and an en-suite bathroom. As indicated on the floor plan, two separate staircases lead to two additional bedrooms on the upper level, both offering elevated views across the valley.

The gardens are a lovely asset to this property. The driveway provides ample parking for several cars, alongside access to the garage. At the front of the property, there is a small garden area mainly laid to lawn, with mature shrubs surrounding the boundary. A lovely seating area is located next to the conservatory. The remaining garden sits above the property, consisting mainly of trees and shrubs.

The property is located in Old Bussage. It, along with the neighbouring villages of Chalford, Brownshill and Eastcombe, enjoys a bustling village community, with established primary and secondary schools, three Cotswold pubs, GP surgery, pharmacy, a post office and shops in the area. 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 at. 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.
