House For Sale £825,000
8a Whitecourt is a superb modern detached property situated in a first class position close to the centre of sought after Uley. This elevated location is very much part of the thriving local community and allows for easy access to the village shop, excellent primary school and Prema Arts centre and café, with country walks on the doorstep and a lovely view over the valley. We understand that the property was originally built in 1989 using traditional methods. It has clearly been the subject of improvement during the current owners tenure, with spacious, light filled accommodation arranged over two floors.
A good entrance hall, cloakroom/WC, 21’ sitting room with wood burning stove and glazed doors that lead to a balcony with superb views beyond, dining room, 17’ kitchen and utility room are on the ground floor. A staircase leads up from the hall to the first floor, with a principal bedroom with en suite shower room, two family bathrooms, four further bedrooms and study/bedroom on this floor. Part of this space is currently used as an informal annexe, and prospective buyers may look to retain this use to generate income, or as a living space for a dependant relative or teenage child. The windows at the front of the property take in the lovely view, and the current owners have installed an air source heat pump and solar panels – a real selling feature with the cost of living at the forefront of everyone’s mind.
The property benefits from a drive, an integral double garage and lovely, productive gardens. The drive leads up from the lane and levels out at the top, providing space to park. The double garage is integrated, and has power and light, with two up and over doors to the front and an internal door leading back through to the house. There are sloping gardens to either side of the drive, and the owners have created productive spaces here by planting fruit trees and soft fruit bushes. There is a paved balcony at the front of the property with a q-Rail style ballustrade. Glazed double doors open on to this space from the sitting room, connecting the inside and outside and bringing the superb view across the valley into the house. There are more fruit bushes at the side of the house, and the air source heat pump is situated here too. Steps lead past the far side of the house, with two log stores sited here, with the majority of the garden at the rear of the property. This is terraced and again, very productive, with several growing areas for vegetables and fruit bushes. Steps lead up to a level area at the top of the garden. This is a great place for chidren to play, or to simply sit and relax by the firepit and take in the fantastic view.
Uley boasts a well regarded primary school, community run village shop with post office, dispensing doctors surgery, local Public House and the Prema Art Centre which is a fantastic venue for local events and also home to the popular Vestry Cafe. The market town of Dursley just two miles away is located on the Cotswold Way making it popular with walkers, and offers an array of convenient shops, supermarkets, restaurants and cafes along with 'The Pulse' a popular sports facility, a library, bus station and the famous Old Spot Public House. Nailsworth town lies within five miles and is a popular shopping destination benefiting from a comprehensive selection of specialty shops and a good selection of well regarded restaurants and cafes. Stroud is also within easy reach and 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. The wider area has a range of shops and amenities, including supermarkets, a hospital, state and private schools and a main line railway station with inter city services travelling to Gloucester, Swindon and London (Paddington). Cam and Dursley train station is about three miles from Uley and provides commuter links to Bristol. Junctions of the M4 and M5 motorways are within relatively easy access.
