4 bed semi-detached house for sale

Bisley Road, Stroud GL5

81 Bisley Road is a well presented semi detached Victorian house situated in one of the best residential roads in Stroud. This location is well known locally for its vibrant, inclusive community and allows for easy access to the shops, amenities and train station of the town with the daisy bank and country walks just along the road. The property is built using traditional methods of red brick under a pitched tiled roof and has been the subject of a comprehensive renovation programme. The current owners have rewired, re plumbed, insulated and replastered the house, prior to installing a new kitchen and bathroom. Original period features have been carefully retained during this process, so a prospective buyer really is getting the best of both worlds - a lovely character home with many of the benefits of a modern house.

An entrance hall greets you, with the sitting room to the right of the hall. This sunny room has a bay window and a fireplace, and connects to the dining room beyond. This room also has a fireplace, with a wood burning stove fitted. The kitchen is at the back of house, with attractive wooden cabinets, a dual aspect and a glazed door out to the garden. Upstairs you'll find a landing, three bedrooms and a bathroom, with another bedroom at the top of the house, on the second floor. The house is tastefully presented, and there is a good outlook from the best bedroom over the valley at the front. A beautifully realised home, and a must for your viewing list.

A brick pillared path leads up from the street, with steps up to the front door. There is a level gravelled area here, with planted borders and a useful bike store/shed. There is a gated side access that leads through to the rear garden. This stretches up away from the house and has been carefully landscaped and planted by the current owner. Steps lead up through terraced levels past a wood store to a good lawned area. A path continues past a shed up to the top of the plot to an insulated detached cabin studio. This has power, light, Wifi and a super view back over the house into the valley.

It's with good reason that Stroud was voted ‘Best place to live in the UK 2021’ by The Sunday Times. Sitting at the point at which five valleys converge, and surrounded by rolling hills within the Cotswold Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Stroud is a small town with a huge heart, which has captured the imagination of many over the years. There’s plenty to see and do - Stroud has a great variety of shops, cafes, pubs and amenities, including a busy leisure centre, library, museum and award-winning weekly farmers’ market. Many of Stroud’s shops are independent and family-run. More recent development has seen the relaunch of the Five Valleys shopping centre and the town also has a cinema, ten-pin bowling and a central gym. Stroud has a proud, thriving local community, one steeped in music, art, creativity and environmental issues. There is a wealth of countryside on the doorstep, including three beautiful commons, as well as walks along the historic canal and River Frome. Parents can take their pick from a range of good schools, including a comprehensive and two grammar schools, and there is also a college of further and higher education. Stroud is also superbly placed for access to the M5 and has a direct line train service to London.
