Location:

Northwood Green is a village that sits on the southern fringe of the Royal Forest of Dean. This area offers 24,000 acres of glorious countryside, presenting an ideal landscape for outdoor activities such as walking, cycling, and river pursuits.
The village includes a pub, The Junction Inn, which is less than half a mile from Ley View, and the neighbouring village of Westbury-on-Severn offers further amenities, including a primary school, a post office-cum-village shop, a dentist's surgery, and another country inn, The Lyon.

The Home at a Glance:

Ley View is positioned in a desirable spot, opposite the village green. Meanwhile, its rear garden is set beneath a striking backdrop of far-reaching pastoral countryside, extending towards Westbury-on-Severn; therefore, all rooms in the bungalow boast picturesque views.
The main entrance leads into a generously sized reception hall. To the right-hand side of the property, there are four reception rooms which seamlessly flow into one another. The largest is the sitting room, which carries a log-burning stove - a staple of country life - and this is framed by an oak mantle. Then there is a beautifully bright dining room, which features a serving hatch to link it with the kitchen and a set of sliding glass doors which lead into a dual-aspect conservatory. There is also a private study, which has ample room for two workstations and a set of French doors to the garden.

The chic kitchen carries muted grey base-and-wall-mounted units, a breakfast bar, a 1+1/2 sink with a swivel tap, a Neff oven and extractor fan, a Siemens induction hob, provision for a dishwasher, and housing for a fridge-freezer set next to a bespoke larder cupboard. Of the bedrooms, all four are large enough to accommodate double beds. The master also includes an en-suite shower room and fitted wardrobes across one side of the room, whereas the second bedroom - also with plenty of fitted storage - has an en-suite basin and WC. In terms of washing facilities, the other two bedrooms are served by a cloakroom off the reception hall and the family bathroom, which boasts Burlington appliances, including a double-ended bath, a walk-in dual-headed shower, a WC, a pedestal basin, a heated towel rail, and an illuminated mirror.

Outside, the rear garden is predominantly laid to lawn, but includes two patio terraces, one next to the home and one at the end of the garden, beneath a pergola, which offers an excellent space to soak in the sublime surroundings.
The detached garage, which is equipped with light and power, has an array of 14 solar (pv) panels on the roof. The ground floor gives enough room to store two vehicles, with additional space for a workshop. There is also a separate storeroom. The top floor presently serves as a games room, and there is additional storage space in the eaves of the property.

In terms of parking, there is a driveway fronting onto Northwood Green. Which gives space for at least three vehicles. There is a second, gated parking area, which is accessible from Church Lane, and this gives ample room for multiple larger vehicles such as motorhomes or tractors. This is sheltered beneath an open barn, which offers protection from the elements.
