House For Sale £365,000
A charming Grade II listed Cotswold stone cottage, occupying a fantastic position. Set in the heart of Rodborough, below the common, less than a mile from the centre of Stroud. Built in traditional stone, the property enjoys great character throughout. Features include wooden casement leaded windows, exposed beams and lintels and an original staircase. Raised above and set back from Walkley Hill, a gated front garden with path provides access to the oak front door and entrance porch. This offers a useful space to remove shoes and hang coats before opening into the main reception room. The sitting room enjoys two windows to the front elevation, whilst an exposed stone fireplace with wood burning stove inset, creates an attractive and warming focal point to the room. The sitting room opens to the adjoining living room, similarly enjoying a view to the front aspect and offering a multitude of uses. A step up from the sitting room leads to the kitchen/breakfast room with tiled floor, where a range of shaker style wall and base unit offer ample storage. There is room for a small dining table, whilst a door provides rear access via a shared pathway to the garden. Also located on the ground floor is a bathroom with shower over the bath. An enclosed staircase from the sitting room rises to the first floor and an exceedingly generous landing with built in storage and an elevated view across the roof tops to Rodborough Fort. Due to its generous size, the space lends itself to use as a second sitting room or study. A pretty double bedroom also with a view is located on this level. A further enclosed staircase rises from the landing to a second double bedroom with exposed beams. Overall the cottage provides bright and unusually spacious accommodation. It occupies such a fabulous setting, being well placed for a plethora of countryside walks, yet also set within easy reach of the town and railway station.
