4 bed detached house for sale

Walkley Hill, Rodborough GL5

2 Old Rectory Close is an individual detached house set away from passing traffic in the ever popular parish of Rodborough. This area is well known for its thriving, inclusive community, with good schools and pubs close by and hundreds of acres of National Trust land just up the hill. Old Rectory Close is a quiet private road of just five houses. Two of these are within the original Cotswold stone rectory, with the remaining three built within the rectory grounds. No. 2 is arguably in the best location, at the very end of the close - a location that allows for a superb outlook and a garden that wraps around the property. The house has been a happy home for our client's family for many years, and now presents a unique opportunity for a buyer to refurbish a good family home to their own taste and standard.

The accommodation is arranged over two floors. A porch, entrance hall, 16' sitting room, connecting dining room and 16' kitchen are on the ground floor. A staircase leads up from the hall to the first floor, with a landing, four bedrooms and a bathroom on this level. Large windows let in plenty of light and allow for a super outlook over the valley at the front from the first floor and a view into the garden at the side and rear. The house is available with no onward chain - just another benefit, and further reason to book to view.

Outside you'll find a garage, parking for up to three vehicles and lovely gardens. The garage is to the right of the house, with up and over door and personal door with covered entrance. This also houses the gas boiler for the property, installed some three years ago. The gardens are a particular feature of the property, enjoying a sunny aspect and wrapping around the house to create a sense of space and privacy. Laid mainly to lawn, the gardens are bordered by mature trees and well established shrubs, interspersed with peaceful seating areas that provide ideal spots to relax and take in the far reaching views across the valley.

Rodborough is home to two primary schools, parks, play areas, some great pubs, with Minchinhampton and Rodborough commons just up the hill. Nearby Dudbridge offers a range of conveniences, including two supermarkets, a bowls club, a playing field, and a petrol station. Vibrant, creative Stroud town is close by and provides a variety of independent shops, local pubs serving beers and ciders from the area, and numerous cafes, bars, and restaurants. The surrounding area offers a wide range of amenities, including supermarkets, a hospital, state and private schools, a leisure centre, a sports centre, and a weekly farmers' market. Stroud also has a mainline railway station with services to London Paddington. Nearby, Cirencester is 10 miles away, Cheltenham is 15 miles, and Swindon is 25 miles, all easily accessible by car.
