Churchend, Eastington, Stonehouse, GL10

Brook Cottage is a handsome semi-detached period home set on the edge of the ever-popular village of Eastington. This thriving community is well served with a shop, a welcoming pub and a highly regarded primary school, while open countryside and canal-side walks are just moments away. Originally built in the 1800s using traditional methods beneath a pitched stone roof, the property has been extended over time and thoughtfully updated to create generous, well-presented accommodation arranged across two floors. On the ground floor there is an entrance porch, an 18ft sitting room, an 18ft drawing room with an inglenook fireplace and wood-burning stove, a study, snug, utility room, shower room, a 19ft garden room and a 19ft farmhouse-style kitchen. The first floor hosts four good sized bedroom with the main bedrooms featuring walk in wardrobes. All four of the bedrooms features views over the garden. A family shower room serves all four bedrooms.

The property has a wonderful garden, with a total plot size of 0.422 acres. A gate leads into a gravelled drive, with space to park several vehicles. The garage is attached to the house, with power, light and an internal door that leads inside. A large paved terrace is to the immediate front of the property, with steps that lead down into the garden, and this well maintained space. There is a gravelled space to the side of the garden, with a raised pool and shed. Mature trees edge the plot, and a gate at the bottom of the garden takes you down to the stream.

Eastington is well known locally for its good community and allows for easy access to the shops, amenities and train station of Stonehouse with schooling, pubs, a shop, a village hall, hairdressers and brilliant walks close by. Nearby Stonehouse has seen many changes over the years, and considerable growth, but remains a friendly town and a proud community spirit. It is a great place to live, with a wide range of housing, a direct railway line to London, primary and secondary schools and a location just 2.5 miles from the M5 motorway. Stonehouse has all the facilities one would expect of a small town, including a GP surgery, Co-op, three playing fields, pubs and a bustling High Street with independent shops, restaurants and cafes. The town is also the location for Wycliffe College, a private school with boarding facilities. But in keeping with the rest of the Stroud area, residents are never far from stunning scenery. The Stroud water Canal runs through Stonehouse and the town is also on the doorstep of beautiful Doverow Hill and a lovely cycle trail which runs to Nailsworth.
