Standing in the heart of Cranham Common, this detached 3-bedroom cottage has been extended over the years and now offers bright and spacious accommodation with superb views over the surrounding common and woodlands.
The ground floor accommodation is comprised of a generous double aspect sitting room with wood burning stove, a beautifully fitted kitchen with painted shaker-style units, double Belfast sink and stone work surfaces, a dining room with built in seating and a useful utility room and cloakroom. On the first floor, all the bedrooms have delightful views over the Cranham Common and the surrounding woodlands with a stylish family bathroom completing the accommodation.
There is scope for a new owner to extend the property with planning permission having previously been granted for a substantial two storey extension (S.15/2721/HHOLD).
Outside
Approached from the road via a gravel track, the house is surrounded by SSSI common land owned and managed by the village. To the front of the house is a large, level lawn; whilst a lower section of garden is currently used as a children's play area, but would also be great as a kitchen garden, chicken run or similar. To the rear of the house is a detached double garage with inspection pit and additional off road parking.
Situation
Surrounded by beech woodlands, Cranham is at the heart of the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Cranham Common, owned by a village trust and surrounding the property, is a rare example of a limestone common. As such, is protected as a Site of Special Scientific Interest and is designated as a National Nature Reserve to ensure this unique habitat is appropriately managed for generations to come.
The community-owned Black Horse Pub is at the heart of the village with the church, primary school, village hall, cricket and tennis clubs all contributing to a vibrant atmosphere. The closest primary schools are in Cranham, Birdlip and Sheepscombe with secondary schools in the wider area including Grammar schools in Stroud, Gloucester and Cheltenham. Gigaclear fibre optic broadband is available at the property.
