Description
Stuart House dates from the 18th Century when it was built as the Rectory for Holy Trinity Church, Minchinhampton. The handsome house reflects alterations made later in the 19th Century and exhibits many fine period features. Stuart House and its grounds were acquired in 2006 by English Courtyard Developments, who divided the original house into three impressive apartments, as part of an exclusive retirement development, now managed by Cognatum Estates. The house sits at the centre of the development and 3 Stuart House overlooks the grounds to the front and the town's cricket pitch and sports fields to the rear.
The Apartment is approached via a communal entrance hall with staircase (chair lift fitted) to the first floor landing. Its front door opens onto a gracious entrance hall from which all rooms lead. At the far end is the west facing sitting room which has a study off. Tall windows let the natural light in. The kitchen /breakfast room faces east, benefiting from the morning sun and there is a cloakroom and box/store room. Upstairs (staircase fitted with chair lift), are two generously proportioned double bedrooms. The larger of the two has an en-suite bathroom. The guest bedroom has a bathroom adjacent. 3 Stuart House is the 'perfect package' for someone who remains active but is looking to downsize, as the scale of the rooms welcomes larger pieces of furniture. Externally, 3 Stuart Court has its own garage and access to the well maintained gardens.

The Property is Leasehold - 150 years from 24th June 2006. No ground rent payable. One resident must be over 55 years of age. The annual service charge for the period 1 January - 31 December is £4,456.00, covering the services of the estate managers, communal charges, alarm service, grounds upkeep, external maintenance, building fabric insurance, window/gutter cleaning, a designated minibus to take residents shopping, management fee to Cognatum Estates Ltd and contributions to the Reserve Fund.

Location
Stuart Court is an exclusive retirement development close to the heart of this historic Cotswold market town, situated in a beautiful, accessible part of the Cotswolds. Highly regarded as a popular place to retire, Stuart Court has a pleasant and peaceful atmosphere, tucked away within a short walk from Minchinhampton's central Market Place and its famous Common. Minchinhampton benefits from excellent amenities, including a village store, traditional butcher, chemist, post office, gastro pub and two cafes. The town also has doctor and dental surgeries, hair and beauty salons, active Anglican and Baptist Churches, a community library plus a choice of challenging golf courses. Communications are excellent. There is a regular bus service from the Market Place to nearby Nailsworth (excellent shopping) or the larger town of Stroud. Stroud has a major Waitrose plus three other supermarkets as well as an award winning Saturday Farmers Market. Trains from Stroud station into London Paddington are scheduled from circa 90 minutes, while the capital is approximately 2 hours by car. The Regency Spa town of Cheltenham (numerous Festivals, National Hunt race course), is to the north and Bath and Bristol to the south-west. In the apex of the M4 and M5 motorways, access to most parts of the country is straightforward. The 'jewel' in Minchinhampton's crown, is its Common, over 650 acres of National Trust land, available for all to enjoy.
