Description - Tayloe offers a great lifestyle house. Located at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this spacious and light-filled 5 bed property offers a lovely family home. The large reception hall with cloakroom off, sets the tone for the remainder of the home, creating an immediate sense of space and calm. The kitchen is to the rear of the house with lovely views over the garden. Clearly the heart of the home, the kitchen is a super bright room with pale coloured units and built-in appliances, resulting in a room that is both stylish and practical. A utility area is neatly tucked away off the kitchen, with useful external access. A wonderful garden room leads directly off the kitchen with access to the garden and patio, making this an ideal space for entertaining family and friends. The sitting room is a bright and welcoming room with chic electric fire for winter evenings and double doors opening to the patio, together with electric sun canopy, ideal for summer entertaining. A good-sized dining room is positioned between the kitchen and sitting room, giving the ground floor a lovely sense of flow. Stairs lead off the reception hall to five good sized bedrooms, four of which overlook the garden with lovely far-reaching views to Coopers Hill. The principal bedroom has a good sized en-suite and large storage room which could easily be converted to a walk-in dressing room. All of the rooms have ample built-in storage and there is also a large family bathroom. Tayloe's garden is one of its key attributes. Set to the rear of the house, the garden comprises a large level lawn and well-stocked borders with mature shrubs providing a burst of colour. Several seating areas provide offer a choice of relaxation areas to suit all times of the day. A superb petanque pitch offers the perfect spot for a game of boules. A single garage with integral access to the house plus parking for up to four cars, is located to the front of the property.

Location - Upton St Leonards is a lovely historic village ideally located immediately south of Gloucester. The village has a strong sense of community spirit and Tayloe is within easy walking distance of the popular primary school and the village general store/post office. There is also a lovely farm shop, pub and numerous societies and sports clubs. There are lovely walks in the surrounding area including over the hill to Painswick which is a classically pretty Cotswold village with a challenging 18 hole golf course and there is even a dry ski slope in nearby Matson. The village is well-located for access to Gloucester and Cheltenham, both of which offer an excellent choice of secondary schools (state and private). It is also convenient for accessing junction12 of the M5 motorway for Bristol and the South-West and junction 11a for the West Midlands. By rail, there are mainline stations in both Gloucester and Stroud, with regular services from Stroud into London Paddington, from just over 90 minutes.

Directions - From our Painswick office proceed north on the A46 in the direction of Cheltenham. Turn left almost immediately after the first set of traffic lights onto Gloucester Street and continue out of Painswick and down the hill towards Gloucester. At the bottom of the hill, turn right into Upton St Leonards after the Kings Head pub. Travel into the village passing the village shop on your left and taking the right hand turning into Bondend Road; continue past the school and take the next right into Twyver Close. Continue round the first bend turning first right where the driveway to Tayloe will be found at the end of the cul-de-sac on the left hand side.
