About this property

Set behind historic stone walls, this secluded Cotswold home blends timeless vintage charm with bright, airy living. Features a classic Aga, log-burning stove, main suite, and lush garden studio. Nestled in quintessential Chalford with vibrant community ties, renowned local schools, and swift London train links.

Set behind an original stone wall, this secluded country home offers two entrances, including a north-easterly side access via a wooden gate opening onto a garden path that leads into a boot room, scullery, and utility area. At the heart of the home, the central kitchen and dining room centered around a classic Aga form a welcoming space. Detailed with vintage character, the kitchen features a large Belfast sink set on an old timber table, solid reclaimed worktops, and an antique armoire. Soft cream distemper coats the walls, while bright southerly light filters through a sash window into the dining area. The south-east-facing living room features lime-washed floorboards, powdery pink walls, exposed oak beams, and a focal log-burning stove. Oversized Edwardian windows fill the room with natural light while framing views of the gardens and courtyards. A staircase with pine treads and a cherry wood handrail ascends to four peaceful double bedrooms. The primary suite enjoys morning light and treetop views through original sash windows, complemented by whitewashed floors and a bespoke en-suite bathroom with a cast-iron roll-top bath, walk-in shower, and terracotta tiles. Three additional double bedrooms—one with an en-suite shower room and another with direct garden access—are served by a family bathroom fitted with a bath and shower.

Outside
The carefully tended grounds at Upland House brim with roses, foxgloves, and lush perennials. Winding paths lead across lawns to mature trees, trailing climbers, and a natural spring. A productive kitchen garden features raised beds and a glasshouse. To the south-east sits a stone outbuilding ripe for restoration, alongside a glass-fronted studio immersed in the garden.

Situation
Chalford is a quintessential Cotswold village with a warm community, local shop, sports club, and cosy pubs. Nearby Stroud and Cirencester offer superb markets, dining, and culture. The area boasts outstanding state, grammar, and private schools, plus excellent transport links—including direct Paddington trains from Stroud in 90 minutes and swift access to the M4, M5, Bath, and Bristol.
