Slad, Stroud, GL6

Thought to originally date from the mid 1960s with substantial alterations in the early 1970s, Bopoto occupies a delightful elevated setting offering commanding views over the Slad Valley. The principal living accommodation is comprised of a reception room with fireplace housing a wood burning stove and doors into a conservatory and a spacious kitchen/dining room opening onto the terrace. The principal bedroom also offers wonderful views with an adjacent bathroom offering scope to create a self-contained annexe if desired.

Set in a gently sloping 2.4 acre plot, a terrace adjacent to the house has steps down to a level lawn. The land is divided into two paddocks around one around half an acre and the other around three quarters of an acre in size. There are two stables, a tack room, two storage barns and a double garage with inspection pit.
