House For Sale £680,000
Built in 2007 this architect designed home sits back from the hustle and bustle of village life, yet is within easy reach of the many amenities which Uley has to offer.
The property was designed to make the most of the available light and outlook and is configured as an 'upside down house', which allows for the most spectacular dual aspect sitting/dining room with vaulted ceiling and exposed A-frame on the first floor. The clever configuration offers very flexible living with bedrooms and bathrooms on both floors.
A generous entrance hallway serves three double aspect bedrooms, a bathroom and a utility room and has a bespoke oak staircase leading to the first floor. Two of the downstairs bedrooms have been designed with dual-purposes in mind and have been used as hobby rooms for many years but work equally well as double bedrooms. The utility room has plenty of space for life's essentials and has a door leading onto the rear garden.
Upstairs the 26' light and bright sitting room is the star of the show with vaulted ceilings, exposed timber beams, solid oak flooring, and a central chimney with a gas fire on one side and a log-burning stove on the other. In addition to the large windows there is a door to the rear with steps plus a cleverly designed ramp leading onto the garden.
To the front of the property there is a triple aspect kitchen/breakfast room with a pleasant outlook and plenty of space for a table. In addition to this there is a small study area and a good-size airing cupboard which houses the boiler and mechanics for the under-floor heating system. A large bathroom with bath and a separate shower cubicle sits alongside a generously proportioned dual aspect master bedroom with fitted wardrobes.
Outside the property has a gated entrance which leads onto a large driveway with a pretty area of front garden. The double garage has an electric up and over door plus a pedestrian door into bedroom 4. To the rear of the property the garden is mature and surprisingly private with established shrubs, a secluded and sunny area of patio, and a useful greenhouse.
This attractive property, while contemporary in design, is very much in keeping with surrounding properties, has under-floor heating upstairs, and is fully double glazed.
Uley, positioned in a stunning valley on the Cotswold escarpment boasts wonderful views to all sides; of particular note is the Uley Bury, an Iron Age hill fort sat above the village which commands views over the Severn Vale. Unlike many villages nowadays, Uley has a thriving community of young and old. There is a well-regarded primary school, a community run village shop with post office, dispensing doctors' surgery, local Public House, Brewery and the Prema Art Centre which is a fantastic venue for local events and also home to the popular Vestry Cafe.
There are many groups and organisations if you wish to get involved including the Church, the WI, The Uley Society plus Toddler Group and also Playgroup - to name but a few. Dursley, two miles away, is a small town with many amenities, while Stroud and Nailsworth each within eight miles have a more extensive range of facilities.
