About this property

Occupying a 1 acre plot with far-reaching views over the Painswick Valley, this detached stone house offers generous and immaculately presented family accommodation over just two floors.

Built in 1922, externally, this Cotswold stone house reflects many of the features typical of the vernacular architecture with coursed limestone facades, stone mullions and carved label courses whilst internally the bright and spacious rooms offer versatile modern family living with bespoke joinery and contemporary fittings.

At the heart of the living accommodation is a spacious kitchen with bespoke Stroud Furniture Makers units topped by granite surfaces, an quartz-topped island with breakfast counter, a four-oven AGA and ample room for sitting and dining areas. The 26' drawing room has windows to front and rear with a carved stone fireplace housing a wood-burning stove. A snug with door to the courtyard and an office are accessed from here with a study, large utility room and cloakroom completing the ground floor accommodation. On the first floor, the principal bedroom has an en suite bathroom and range of built-in wardrobes with a guest bedroom also offering en suite facilities. There are four further bedrooms having the use of a family bathroom and additional shower room. A second staircase gives scope for part of the house to be used as a self-contained annexe for guests or dependent relatives.

Outside
Extending to just under 1 acre, the gardens are a particular attraction of the property. To the rear a broad terrace offers ample room for entertaining and relaxing and opens to the extensive, level lawns surrounded by mature yew and beech hedges. To the side, a sheltered courtyard garden is the perfect setting for dining with friends. To the front, a gravel drive sweeps around the manicured lawns to a spacious parking area with capacity for many vehicles.

Situation
Painswick is a thriving community with many beautiful buildings dating back as far as the 14th Century. The Churchyard is famous for its impressive array of tombs and 99 yew trees about which folklore says that if a 100th should grow the devil will pull it out. There are several local shops, galleries, tearooms and restaurants in the village along with a pharmacy, doctor and dentist surgeries and two public houses whilst the surrounding towns provide a comprehensive range of social and retail amenities to suit all tastes and budgets. Recreational opportunities include tennis, rugby, bowls, cricket and golf clubs with many other groups meeting at the Painswick Centre.

Painswick offers a playgroup and primary school with secondary schools in the surrounding towns including Marling School (boys), Stroud High School (girls) and Pate’s (mixed) grammar schools and independent schools including Beaudesert Park School and Wycliffe College in Stroud, Dean Close, Cheltenham College and Cheltenham Ladies College in Cheltenham and Kings School in Gloucester.
