119 Thrupp Lane, Thrupp, GL5

Peter Joy are delighted to offer this beautifully kept detached chalet style house in ever popular Thrupp Lane to the market. This location is very much part of the thriving local community, and isn't far from the shops and amenities of Stroud, yet still has country and canal-side walks within easy reach. Highclere has been a happy home for the current owner for nearly 20 years and they have comprehensively improved and remodelled the property in that time, with well finished, tastefully presented accommodation arranged over two floors. 

You're in touch with the first class view over the Golden Valley as soon as you walk up the steps to the front door. This leads into an entrance lobby, with a useful utility area at the far end. A door opens to a 14' kitchen, with a 17' sitting room, dining room double bedroom and bathroom found on this floor. In addition there is a 15' garden room - the perfect place to sit and take in the superb outlook. A staircase leads up from the dining room to the first floor. Here, you'll find a principal suite with 16' bedroom, dressing area and shower room. High quality fittings have been used throughout, and the windows at the front look out over the front garden into the Golden Valley and the countryside beyond. A real gem in our opinion, and an absolute must for your viewing list.

The property benefits from a double garage, lovely gardens to the front and rear and a parking space at the rear. The garage measures 21'10" x 16'5", with two electrically operated doors. Steps lead up from the lane to the front of the property. There is a level lawn here, with a decked seating area above with storage under, to the left of the front door. This is a great place to sit, relax, and take in the fantastic view. The rear garden is terraced, with a paved seating area directly behind the house. Steps lead up through the terraces, which are currently laid with decorative slate chippings and planted with a variety of mature established shrubs. There is a productive vegetable patch and a greenhouse, and a parking area at the very top of the plot. This is accessed via a privately owned track, and the current owner pays £25 per year for the right of access.

Thrupp is a popular area less than a mile to the East of Stroud on the sunny side of the Golden Valley. Stroud’s shops and amenities are with easy reach, with canal side walks at the bottom of the hill and some wonderful countrywide just up the lane at The Heavens. As such, the property enjoys the advantages of being equidistant between open countryside and the lively town of Stroud, which offers a wide range of shops, supermarkets, schools and colleges and leisure facilities. Stroud Railway Station provides a main-line service to Gloucester and London. Junctions of the M4 and M5 Motorway are also within easy driving distance.
