Steanbridge Mill is a lovely family house in an idyllic rural setting, with beautiful gardens and grounds bordered by streams, a paddock, woodland and a large pond. It forms part of an impressive former woollen mill, which was constructed, we believe, in the 17th Century and is Listed Grade II as being of Special Architectural and Historic Interest. The house is built of dressed Cotswold stone, with stone mullion windows and moulded drip sills, under a tiled roof. The accommodation, which is arranged over three floors, with an attic above, extends to about 3,000 sq. ft. in total. Great care has been taken to preserve as much of the original character and integrity of the property as possible, with period features including exposed timbers and stonework, and a number of the stone mullion windows have interesting graffiti and artistic carvings.

Outside, the house is approached to the front through double wooden gates set between stone pillars via a gravel drive, which sweeps around behind the property to a parking and turning area in front of a substantial detached double garage/workshop. The gardens and grounds are a particularly attractive feature of the property and to the front of the house there is a rose garden and a wide paved terrace with low Cotswold stone retaining walls. To the rear of the house there is a paved courtyard with doors opening into the study and dining hall, from which steps lead up to a gravel path, which leads through well stocked flower beds to an area of raised lawn and back down wooden steps to a bridge over a stream. Across the drive from the kitchen, there is a south facing area of lawn, with flower borders and alongside which flows the Dillay. A second bridge leads across the stream to a small paddock with two loose boxes. Adjoining the paddock there is a former orchard area, which is bordered by the Slad Brook. The brook flows through an area of woodland into a large pond, fringed by matures trees and bushes, and which provides a fantastic natural habitat for wildlife. In all just over 2.5 acres.

Steanbridge Mill is quietly situated in an idyllic valley on the edge of the village of Slad, which will forever be associated with Laurie Lee, the famous poet and writer whose home it was for so many years and who so eloquently described its great beauty. Situated in the South West of the Cotswolds, this naturally hilly, wooded country has deep valleys, whose green slopes are a patchwork of small fields. The village of Slad lies in the heart of the valley and has an excellent pub, The Woolpack. Stroud, which lies further down the valley, is an interesting old town and a centre for the arts, as well as having a mainline railway station to London Paddington, day to day shopping, an excellent weekly Farmer's Market on Saturday, recreational and educational facilities. The larger centres of Cheltenham, Gloucester and Cirencester are very accessible. There is a particularly good range of schooling in the locality, both private and state, including two excellent secondary schools in Stroud, Stroud High and Marling, and alternatives include the Cheltenham Schools, as well as Beaudesert Park in Minchinhampton, or Wycliffe College at Stonehouse.

Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
