Watledge, Nailsworth, Stroud, Gloucestershire

Brockley House is a spacious period property situated in the charming hamlet of Watledge, moments from the centre of Nailsworth. Recently modernised by its current owners, this home combines original period charm with high-quality upgrades throughout, creating a welcoming and beautifully appointed family residence. The property boasts generous living spaces arranged over three floors, with each room benefiting from an abundance of natural light and sweeping views.

The principal rooms on the ground floor lead directly from the wide and welcoming entrance hall, featuring a stunning galleried staircase. The open-plan kitchen/dining room, equipped with bespoke cabinetry and high-end appliances, is both impressive and stylish, and leading off is a light and airy home office/studio which opens onto the garden. An inviting sitting room with a log burner, a separate family room, utility room, guest cloakroom, and boot room complete the ground floor accommodation.

The principal bedroom, complete with its en suite bathroom and dressing room, along with four further double bedrooms, are arranged across the upper two floors. Each bedroom is generous in size and tastefully decorated to enhance the home’s natural charm. The bath and shower rooms on each floor are beautifully fitted, with the en suite bathroom featuring underfloor heating.

The cellar provides two storage rooms and leads to an impressive 30’ vaulted room, ideal as a games or cinema room.

The exterior of Brockley House is equally inviting. Set back from the road, the property offers ample parking, and a high stone wall encloses the lawned garden, ensuring privacy while allowing south-facing views and sunlight throughout the day. A paved terrace at the front of the house provides an ideal space for outdoor dining and entertaining.

Nailsworth offers a vibrant community atmosphere, with a variety of independent shops, restaurants, and cafes, including the well-known Williams Food Hall and Hobbs House Bakery.
