Lampern Hill, Uley, Dursley, GL11 5BN

A special, carefully extended character home on the outskirts of popular Uley village set in approximately 1.28 acres of mature gardens. The Old Manse, dates back to the 1800s and retains much of its character charm alongside the trademark symmetry and proportions befitting this era. The property has been carefully extended to create a well-balanced family home offering flexible accommodation across two principal floors.

A stunning entrance hallway with terrazzo tiled floor provides access to all rooms, and stairs ascend to the first floor. There is a dual aspect sitting room with an ACR Ashdale multi fuel stove and Bath stone surround to one side, and a dining room with bespoke cabinetry and an ACR Oakdale multi fuel stove to the other. A useful snug/study room leads from the sitting room and has doors onto the side garden and into the conservatory. The conservatory, to the rear, has a stunning outlook and two sets of doors connecting to the garden. The kitchen which has been significantly extended is a stunning light-filled room with a wonderful connection to the garden, and ample space for entertaining. The bespoke solid wooden Neptune kitchen offers plenty of storage space, Marengo quartz worksurfaces, a large island with inset Belfast sink, an integrated dishwasher, and a Neff integrated electric oven and induction hotplate in addition to the gas-fired Aga. Leading from the kitchen there is a useful boot-room with a door onto the garden, and an adjoining utility room which has plenty of storage for life's essentials and a sink. The ground floor is completed by a beautifully presented cloakroom/WC.

Stairs lead to the first floor which boasts a stunning full-height arched picture window on the half-landing with views to the rear. Upstairs there are three generous double bedrooms and a smaller fourth, alongside a stunning family bathroom with a free-standing bath enjoying views across the garden. The master bedroom has wonderful square proportions, a large sash window to the front elevation, fitted wardrobes and a beautifully presented ensuite shower room with a large walk-in shower, under-floor heating, and heated towel rail. Bedrooms two and three each enjoy a dual aspect, while the fourth bedroom makes a wonderful single bedroom or a small double. The L-shaped family bathroom has been beautifully designed to accommodate a free standing bath as well as a good-size shower cubicle with a rain-system shower. The stylish bathroom suite is complimented by a Victorian column style heated towel rail, and tongue and groove wood panelling.

Outside the property has substantial gardens which have been carefully curated by the current owner to offer colour and interest all year round. To the rear there is a large level lawn framed by specimen trees and beautifully planted, established borders, plus a large patio for entertaining. Adjoining this you will find a beautiful Woodpecker Joinery timber greenhouse alongside which there are several immaculate vegetable beds, flower beds, and fruit trees and bushes. A further generous area of lawn can be found to the side of the property where the river runs through, this leads up to the top of the garden where you will find two useful stone-built outbuildings, beyond which there is a good-size paddock. Vehicular access can be found to the side of the property via electric gates where there is gravelled parking for several cars. In addition to this there is a beautifully crafted stone built detached garage to the front of the property with a vaulted ceiling and timbers doors, well-known locally for its spectacular established wisteria. The pretty front garden is awash with climbing roses and mature planting.

Uley, positioned in a stunning valley on the Cotswold escarpment boasts wonderful views to all sides; of particular note is the Uley Bury, an Iron Age hill fort sat above the village which commands views over the Severn Vale.

The Manse lies on the outskirts of the village, providing ready access to open countryside and many magnificent walks. Unlike many villages nowadays, Uley has a thriving community of young and old. There is a well-regarded primary school, a community run village shop/post office, dispensing doctors' surgery, local Public House, Brewery and Prema Art Centre - a fantastic venue for local events, which is also home to the popular Vestry Cafe.

There are many groups and organisations if you wish to get involved including the Church, the WI, The Uley Society plus Toddler Group - to name but a few. Dursley, two miles away, is a small town with many amenities, while Stroud and Nailsworth each within eight miles have a more extensive range of facilities.
