4 bed semi-detached house for sale

Bowbridge Wharf, Stroud, Gloucestershire GL5

Tucked away in a picturesque spot within the sought-after Bowbridge Wharf development, this beautifully presented semi-detached townhouse combines modern living with a scenic canal-side setting. Built in 2017 on the banks of the historic Thames and Severn Canal, the property enjoys leafy views to both the front and rear. A scenic stroll along the towpath leads straight into Stroud town centre, while the wide open spaces of Rodborough Common - over 300 acres of National Trust land - are just a mile away, perfect for dog walking, cycling, or weekend rambles.

Step inside and you are welcomed by a smart entrance hall. On this level sits a versatile double bedroom (equally suited as a guest room, study, or second reception) complete with en-suite shower room. From here there is also access into the integral garage.

The first floor is the heart of the home. A stylish sitting room offers a cosy retreat, while the contemporary kitchen/dining room provides excellent storage and workspace. French doors open directly onto the sunny south-west facing garden - an inviting extension of the living space with a decking area ideal for entertaining or unwinding, plus useful side access. A further bedroom/study is also located on this floor.

On the top floor are two generous double bedrooms, including a superb principal suite with en-suite shower room. A beautifully finished family bathroom completes the accommodation.

Outside, the property offers driveway parking, an integral garage, and that all-important low-maintenance rear garden designed for relaxation.

This is a home that offers the best of both worlds - modern convenience, stylish interiors, and a tranquil waterside outlook, all within walking distance of Stroud’s vibrant town centre.

Agent's note: There is a service charge of around £350 per year which goes towards grounds maintenance and insurance of the canal bank.
