Description - Southwood offers a bright and spacious south facing family home in an idyllic rural setting. The home has been extensively renovated to include Smart technology, fibre broadband, re-wiring and new plumbing, to create a stylish family home. Features include Control 4 Home Automation, Lutron lighting, CCTV and Nest controlled zoned underfloor heating.
Tucked away along a quiet country lane the home is set into a quarry face, offering a unique and dramatic backdrop. Accessed via a glass panelled reception hall/boot room, the home opens into a sensational open-plan kitchen/living area. Filled with light and with ample room to entertain, this room is clearly the heart of the home and the ideal space to chat with friends, whilst cooking up a feast. Red and cream units provide stylish storage and there is room for a good sized dining table. A living area with open fire and glass doors opening to the garden, makes an ideal year-round family and entertaining space. A light-filled garden room leads off the living area, with views to the quarry at the rear providing a dramatic outlook. A useful utility leads off the rear hallway, together with a home office. The sitting room provides further reception space, with pretty mullion windows overlooking the garden; this is a lovely room to relax with a book or to entertain.
Stairs lead off the hallway to four first floor double bedrooms plus a family bathroom. All of the bedrooms offer well thought-out spaces with ample storage and pretty valley views. The principal bedroom has a spacious and newly fitted en-suite. Two attic rooms are located on the second floor, one with en-suite shower and WC which would easily convert to a fifth bedroom, subject to the necessary building regulations.
The grounds are a real feature of the property. Set into a quarry face, there is huge potential to create a unique alfresco dining and relaxing space with the quarry as a magnificent backdrop. A level lawn frames the front of the house and to the rear, steps lead up to a patio area with a hot-tub and an orchard. A garage with gated gravel parking area is set to the side of the house with one bed annexe above, including a bedroom/living space, kitchenette and en-suite shower room. Electric gates open to another gravel area with further parking.
Location - Tucked away along a quiet rural lane, the location of Southwood is one of its key attributes. With Box Wood to the side of the house and stunning views across the Nailsworth valley from the front aspect, the property offers an idyllic location for family life. Within walking distance of the village of Box and only a ten minute walk from the thriving market town of Nailsworth, Southwood is the perfect lifestyle choice. The market towns of Minchinhampton, Nailsworth and Stroud are all within easy reach, offering a host of amenities and shopping facilities. Stroud has three major supermarkets, a multiplex cinema and award winning Saturday Farmers Market and Minchinhampton has a good selection of independent retailers, a post office, chemist, several coffee shops and a popular bistro pub. Similarly, Nailsworth has a fine selection of independent retailers and restaurants and a Morrisons supermarket.
One of the key draws to the area is the excellent choice of schools in both the state and private sector. Minchinhampton has a popular primary school and there are several sought after grammar schools in Stroud, Gloucester and Cheltenham. In the private sector, Beaudesert Park is within walking distance of Southwood and Westonbirt and Wycliffe are also within easy reach, as well as numerous sought after schools in Cheltenham. The area is well placed for travel links with trains into London Paddington (circa 90 minutes) from nearby Stroud Station and both the M5 and M4 easily accessible.
