6 bed detached house for sale

The Grange is the former vicarage situated on the edge of the village of Bream in the heart of the Forest of Dean. It stands in approximately a third acre of private garden with a number of assorted outbuildings. This fine property has the architecture and the character associated with the era. It does require investment but much of the original fabric is intact. Window shutters and panelling, doors, deep skirting boards and fireplaces to name some. Accommodation is arranged over three floors, the rooms are very spacious. The large cellar is accessed from the hall by a stone spiral staircase, also from the garden. An opportunity for further development exists. The Forest has good links to major road and rail, the cities of Gloucester, Bristol and Cardiff are commuting distance.
