St. Marys, Chalford, Stroud, GL6

Set back from the road in a charming and historic building dating back to the early 1830s, this delightful three-storey home forms part of the beautifully converted Old Silk Mill — once a working silk factory before production moved north. The building was first converted into 13 apartments in the 1950s and later remodelled into just eight unique homes in the 1970s, each retaining a wealth of period character.

No. 2 Old Silk Mill is the only property in the building arranged over three floors, offering a wonderful blend of charm, individuality, and versatile living space.

Upon entering through double-glazed double doors — perfect for moving furniture with ease — you’re greeted by a welcoming entrance leading into a beautifully crafted handmade kitchen, complete with oversized deep cupboards for generous storage, a built-in narrow dishwasher, microwave, and a Rangemaster oven with extractor above. The flagstone flooring features water-fed underfloor heating, adding both comfort and character.

A downstairs WC and plumbing for a washing machine add practicality, while a rear room provides flexibility as a dining room, home office, or snug. Beneath the stairs, a spring-fed well with a Perspex cover and feature lighting adds a truly unique talking point.

The first floor opens up to a spacious sitting room with plenty of natural light, perfect for entertaining or relaxing. Upstairs, the second floor offers two well-proportioned bedrooms and a modern bathroom.

Outside, residents benefit from communal gardens, allocated parking to the front, and the peaceful charm of a property set back from the road.

Offered chain free, this property presents a rare opportunity to own a piece of Stroud’s industrial heritage, thoughtfully adapted for modern living.

Nestled in the charming Frome Valley village of Chalford, this historic residence benefits from the best of Cotswold-edge living.
