Barrowfield Road, Farmhill, Stroud, GL5

22 Barrowfield Road is an extended detached house in a good position within this popular residential road. Whiteshill village in just up the hill, with a pub, primary school and community run shop here, with Stroud town within easy reach and country walks across the road. The property is built using traditional methods and has been extended in the past. This addition has increased the size of the kitchen, so there is now plenty of room for a dining table in this space, making a sociable kitchen/living area. In addition to this, there is an entrance hall, utility room, cloakroom/w.c and a lovely 23' sitting room with glazed doors that open onto the garden at the rear on the ground floor. A staircase leads up from the hall, with a landing, three bedrooms and a shower room on this level. There is a good view from the front bedroom between the houses over the road, and the property is available with no onward chain. 

There is a drive the the front of the house, with a gravelled area to the side. The integral garage is beyond this, with an up and over door, and this measures 16' x 9'. There is a lawned area at the front too, with a gated side access at the side of the house that leads around to the rear. The majority of the garden is here, with a good paved area immediately behind the house with glazed doors that open from the sitting room. A useful brick built shed is sited here too, with steps up to another paved area and a large level lawn. This is enclosed with fencing, with a path leading to the top of the plot. 

The property is situated just below the village of Whiteshill, which stands right on the edge of the Cotswold escarpment. Unlike many villages in the area, Whiteshill did not grow up around a medieval heart, but started as clusters of cottages which were built around the springs or wells dotted around the hillside. It has a very vibrant community with a volunteer-run village shop, playing fields, a church, village hall, scout hut, school and The Star Inn at the heart of the modern-day community. There are some beautiful rambles to enjoy, including the Diamond Jubilee Circular Walk, which links Whiteshill and Ruscombe, following ancient pathways through fields and woodland. The village is close to Stroud, which has a direct train link to London and an award-winning farmers’ market, while Gloucester and Cheltenham are both within comfortable driving distance.
