4 bedroom property for sale in Stroud

An individually designed detached country house, perfectly located away from passing traffic, off Back Edge Lane. This area of the Cotswolds is secluded and peaceful but not isolated. Painswick, known as ?Queen of the Cotswolds` is just a mile or so down the lane and there are mainline rail links at Stroud, plus good road access at M5 junction 12 for north/south commute.

Beautiful Cotswold walks through countryside and National Trust woodland along with stunning views are available on your doorstep and the area is part of the Cotswold Way, so paths are well maintained.

The house was built in the latter part of the 1980`s to a design with an ?open` feel. The layout comprises: entrance lobby with cloakroom/wc off, spacious and light hall with half-flight stairs down to a wonderful sitting room which has an open fireplace, windows to two sides plus two sets of patio doors which open straight to the garden and terrace. Also, on this level is another room which can be used as bedroom 5 or study/home office. Back up to the hall, there is another half-flight of stairs which leads to the master bedroom with en suite shower room and superb views. Bedroom 4 is also located on this upper level. Again, from the hall, double doors lead to the dining room, through to the breakfast/family room and then to the well-appointed fitted kitchen. There is also a utility room accessed from the kitchen. To the other side of the central hall are two further double bedrooms and a family bathroom.

At the front of the house is an excellent parking area suitable for several vehicles and the double garage stands to the side of this area.

The gardens which stretch to around half an acre surround the house and this area of the property is particularly private and peaceful. There is a summer house, 2 patio areas and a Japanese garden area. The whole garden space is well established with shrubs and trees.

It is not unusual to spot deer and other wildlife wandering across the lane on your way to the house.

Edge is a pretty Cotswold village with an excellent community spirit. The annual fete on the Village Green is a renowned fixture and other events are organised throughout the calendar. The local pub is The Edgemoor Inn and this watering hole sits at the bottom of Edge Common and has a beautiful view across to Painswick from the garden. Painswick itself has two pubs, primary school, Church with its famous yew trees, cafes and small shops including a convenience store.

If you are looking for a country home of interesting design, Marlowe should definitely be on your list of houses to view.
