5 bed detached house for sale

The Bourne, Brimscombe, Stroud GL5

An impressive south-facing detached Victorian residence occupying an elevated position with far-reaching views across the Golden Valley.

Elegant and beautifully proportioned, this handsome home retains a wealth of original features. The central hallway displays a striking tessellated tiled floor, while fireplaces feature in every principal room - many with attractive period tiles. Sash windows, built-in cupboards and the remarkable original ‘plunge’ bath further enhance its character. A sympathetic extension has created a superb open-plan kitchen with central island, roof lantern and sliding doors opening to the rear garden. This stylish space flows seamlessly into the formal dining room with parquet flooring, wood-burning stove and French doors to the side patio - ideal for entertaining. The two principal reception rooms benefit from south-facing bay windows and impressive tiled fireplaces, one with a wood-burning stove inset. From the hallway, stairs lead down to two useful cellars, one arranged as a practical laundry room with window and external access. The first floor provides three double bedrooms, including one with en-suite, together with a family bathroom. The second floor offers a further double bedroom with en-suite and an additional bedroom, providing excellent flexibility for family living or guests. Double glazing, solar panels and additional insulation improve energy efficiency while preserving the home’s period integrity.

The property backs onto a nature reserve owned and managed by the Gloucestershire Wildlife Trust. The nearby Charlea Community Gardens is a 3 acres community owned open space which is protected as a village green and provides a wonderful sense of community.
