London Road, Thrupp, GL5

4 Albion Terrace is a substantial red brick end of terrace house just over a mile from Stroud at Thrupp. This location is well placed for the shops and the train station of the town, but has a strong local community and amenities of its own, with two good primary schools, Stroud Brewery, the Ship Inn and The Long table all within easy reach. The property was built in 1867 using traditional methods from red brick. It is a handsome house, and it has been improved by the current owner, including the installation of some lovely bespoke kitchen cabinets with Iroko work surfaces. 

An entrance hall, sitting room with fireplace and wood burning stove, connecting dining room and the aforementioned kitchen are on the ground floor. A staircase leads up from the hall to the first floor, with a landing, two double bedrooms and a bathroom on this level. There are two more good bedrooms at the top of the house, on the second floor. The house has some  nice original character features, such as the plaster arch in the hall, and the windows at the front on the first and second floors enjoy a good view to countryside over the road. A well presented, spacious house - viewing highly recommended. 

The interior is complemented by a large terraced rear garden and parking for two cars. There is a passageway to the side of the front door that leads to the kitchen door, and the neighbouring property has a right of way here to access their property. A stable door leads from the kitchen to a rear courtyard, with steps up to a terraced garden. The first terrace is level, with paving and lawn, with steps leading up the terraces above. There is a great view from the top of the garden over the house. The parking area is at the top of the garden, and is accessed from Middle Hill.

Thrupp and Brimscombe has a booming friendly community with a mixed demographic, well-established primary schools, a shop, hairdressers, the prestigious Stroud Brewery which is renowned for its local organic beer and wood fired pizzas as well as the recently renovated village pub - The Ship. Stroud town benefits from an award winning weekly farmers market as well as a variety of local independent shops and stores, pubs serving locally supplied beers and ciders and plenty of cafes, bars and restaurants to eat and socialise as well as. The recently opened “Five Valleys” shopping centre is of particular note and is certainly worth a visit for a range of market stalls, food stalls and stores. The wider area has a range of shops and amenities, including supermarkets, a hospital, state and private schools, a leisure and sports centre and a main line railway station with inter city services travelling to London (Paddington). Cirencester (10 miles), Cheltenham (15 miles) and Swindon (25 miles) are all within comfortable driving distance.
