Seven Leaze Lane, Edge, Stroud, GL6

A handsome detached Cotswold stone house occupying an elevated plot extending to approximately 0.8 acres. Thought to be constructed using stone from a former stable block on the same site, the property had been extended by the previous owner to offer generous, well-proportioned living space but would now benefit from some maintenance and updating. The principal ground accommodation comprises a large kitchen/dining room fitted with a range of contemporary units topped by granite surfaces with French doors opening to the conservatory whilst bi-folding doors open from the dining area to a courtyard, a sitting room with stone fireplace housing a gas flame effect fire and a study. On the first floor, the master and guest bedrooms both offer contemporary en suite facilities whilst three further bedrooms have use of a family bathroom. A utility room and cloak/wet room on the ground floor complete the accommodation.

Outside

The gardens are mostly laid to lawn with shrub borders and flower beds. A terrace adjacent to the house is ideal for entertaining whilst taking in the far reaching views. The swimming pool will need re-commissioning before use. The house is approached via a gated driveway leading to an open-fronted double garage and ample off road parking.

The previous owner obtained planning (S.15/2583/HHOLD) and commenced works to convert a detached triple garage to create at leisure suite with sauna, shower and four other rooms extending to over 900 sq ft although these works are unfinished.
