Description
The main residence is thoughtfully designed to maximise light and space, featuring a self-contained master bedroom suite complete with a private en-suite, offering a quiet sanctuary from the rest of the home. The additional three bedrooms are all accessed directly from the entrance hall and share a well-appointed family bathroom, making the layout ideal for family living or guests.
The open-plan kitchen/diner and lounge provide a seamless indoor/outdoor experience, with both rooms opening onto a generous patio area-perfect for al fresco dining, summer gatherings, or simply relaxing in the peaceful surroundings.
Outside, the property is approached via a very large driveway offering ample parking for over 20 vehicles, also turning space for both the main house and the separate annexe. The annexe, positioned to the side and above the double garage, includes three bedrooms and is currently operating successfully as a holiday let. It enjoys its own private outdoor space, giving guests or extended family a sense of independence and privacy.
The extensive gardens are a true highlight-beautifully maintained with an abundance of mature shrubs, plants, a natural stream and trees that eventually open up into surrounding woodland, offering both privacy and space to explore. With forest views, the property delivers a genuine sense of serenity.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a home that offers versatility, space, and income potential in a stunning yet convenient location (2.2 miles from a train station, 15 miles from the Severn Bridge).
Lydney town offers a wide range of facilities including a variety of shops, banks, building societies, supermarkets and a locally treasured park, as well as a sports centre, golf course, doctor's surgeries, train station, primary and secondary schools. A wider range of facilities are also available throughout the Forest of Dean including an abundance of picturesque woodland and river walks and outdoor pursuit activities. The Severn crossings and M4 towards London, Bristol and Cardiff are easily reached from this area along with the cities of Gloucester and Cheltenham for access onto the M5 and the Midlands.
