4 bed detached house for sale

Old Neighbourhood, Chalford GL6

Set in the picturesque Golden Valley, this attractive attached period home thought to date from the 17th century enjoys delightful views across neighbouring fields and wooded valley surroundings. Built from traditional Cotswold stone, it is rich in charm and character, featuring stone mullion windows, exposed beams, and a striking fireplace. The accommodation is well balanced for modern living while remaining true to its origins. An oak front door opens into a spacious entrance porch with flagstone flooring, ideal for coats and shoes, leading to a central dining room that connects the home. To one side, the kitchen is fitted with shaker-style units, integrated appliances, a peninsular unit, space for dining and a door opens to the outside driveway. The sitting room provides a warm, inviting space centred around a fireplace with woodburning stove, with French doors opening onto the garden and framing rural views. A staircase also leads down to a useful cellar with external access. Upstairs, three bedrooms are arranged on the first floor, including an impressive principal bedroom with high ceilings, built-in storage, and dual-aspect mullion windows overlooking the valley. These are served by a family bathroom. A further staircase rises to the top floor, where two interconnecting attic rooms offer flexible additional space, currently used as a study and secondary living area.

Outside

A gravel driveway offers ample parking and leads to a timber outbuilding with light and power. The gardens wrap around the side and rear, arranged across three terraces with open views over adjoining land and a wooded valley. A part-paved terrace adjoins the sitting room, with a lawn and vibrant flower borders. Steps descend to a gravelled seating area, perfect for enjoying the views, while a terrace behind the garage has a vegetable plot. Mature trees provide privacy and character, complemented by features such as an original well and external steps to a useful cellar.
