Summary - 4 FOLLY LANE STROUD GL5 1SD
Detached 1930s house on a large, elevated plot with town and church views
This 1930s detached house sits on a large, elevated plot a short walk from Stroud town centre, offering practical family living with attractive period character. The home combines a bay-fronted sitting room with a wood burner, an open-plan dining/family room and an extended kitchen breakfast room — good everyday space for family life and entertaining. The rear garden is layered with decked and patio areas, lawn and planted beds, benefitting from pleasant town and church views.
A useful annex (the former garage) provides flexible accommodation: a bedroom/dining area with a kitchenette and shower room, ideal for a dependent relative, home working or rental income after minor updating. The main bathroom/shower room was renewed in 2021 and the property has gas central heating with a boiler and radiators.
Practical points: the property has double glazing but install dates are unknown and the EPC is band D (61), so energy performance is average. The attic has restricted headroom and is measured under the eaves, limiting conversion potential without structural change. Overall, the house is tidy and well presented but offers scope for modernisation to improve efficiency and personalise living spaces.
For families seeking proximity to good local schools, green commons and fast rail links, this home offers immediate liveability plus potential to increase comfort and value with targeted updates.
