A village home in a delightful rural setting on the edge of Stroud, Gloucestershire.

Over the past year the house has been completely modernised and is now a comfortable home taking advantage of the fabulous views down the Ruscombe Valley towards Stroud.

On three floors, the entrance at ground level opens onto the middle floor with kitchen and dining area, family bathroom and guest bedroom. The floor above provides two attic bedrooms and shower room.

On the floor below is a spacious living room with log burning stove, internet tv and doors to a raised decked area and garden.

There is parking for two cars on the front forecourt.

About the location

Stroud is on the south western edge of the Cotswold Hills, an area now designated as a National Landscape. The location is also convenient by road and rail for Cheltenham, Gloucester, Bristol and Oxford, with the West Country, Birmingham and London a little further afield.

The parish of Ruscombe and Whiteshill has a small community shop and cafe, an excellent pub The Star, playing field and church all within walking distance.

Stroud is 30mins walk away, mostly across footpaths. There is an hourly bus service from Whiteshill into Stroud and in the other direction to Gloucester. It is an independent free-thinking sort of place — many crafts people, a lively weekly farmers market and an interesting variety of smaller places to eat.

The area is a walkers paradise although you do need to be comfortable with hills! The terrain is a mixture of steep wooded valleys and open commons on the hilltops. The Cotswold Way — a long-distance footpath running from Chipping Campden to Bath — passes through the woods just above the house.
