House For Sale £600,000
Welcome to Number 18, Horseshoe Drive, a modern four double bedroom family home within a period building located on a prominent development situated on the outskirts of the City of Gloucester and adjacent to the Herefordshire and Gloucestershire Canal Trust's canal basin. The property enjoys spacious, well-appointed accommodation over three floors, coupled with a detached double garage and mature, part walled rear garden.
The city of Gloucester is steeped in local history, characterised by its famous Cathedral, Docks and schools both in the private and grammar sector with the well- regarded Kings School just over a mile away. Furthermore, the city enjoys some superior shopping and leisure facilities at Gloucester Quays, including cinema, restaurants, bars, and cafés.
For the commuter, the city enjoys good road links with the A40 and M5 motorway junctions in proximity, whilst in the city itself, Gloucester station allows access to London Paddington in just over two hours.
The property, which dates to 1901, was extensively renovated and fully modernised in 2002/03, when Swan Hill Homes built the surrounding development and is one side of a pair of properties which share an outer hall. Once through your own front door, your spacious hall leads to the dual aspect sitting room, which is lovely and light. Furthermore, the high ceilings throughout the property give a sense of grandeur.
The ground floor also has a modern and well-appointed kitchen, which offers an array of fitted units as well as several integral appliances. The kitchen is open to the dining area and from here, a fully glazed door leads into the recently added garden room, which gives a wonderful overview of the home's mature garden.
The first floor is home to two of the property's four double bedrooms, both of which benefit from en suites and fitted wardrobes. Moving upwards, on the upper level are the two remaining double bedrooms and the very spacious four-piece family bathroom.
Stepping outside, the property offers driveway parking for two cars in front of the detached double garage which features light, power and pedestrian access to the rear garden.
The sheltered rear garden is enclosed by a traditionally built brick wall and close boarded fencing. This mature space enjoys a paved terrace, lawns and well stocked beds featuring established shrubs, roses and fruit trees
Finally, and completing the home, is the basement level, which is accessed externally from the front of the home. With light and power, this provides a super storage space that could also be used as an external playroom.
