Hollingham House is a substantial period home set in extensive, well-maintained grounds with far-reaching valley views. The principal suite and guest suite both capitalise on the outlook; a 2005 oak-and-glass extension and high ceilings retain the house’s historic character while adding light and modern circulation. The property is arranged over two main floors with a large roof space, offering potential to create an additional bedroom suite subject to planning consent.
The grounds are a major asset: dual driveway accesses, gravel forecourt and a detached Cotswold stone double garage with a self-contained bedroom suite above. The garden is thoughtfully planted with lawns, an orchard, vegetable beds, greenhouse and sheltered terraces facing south — well suited to family life, entertaining and productive gardening.
Practical matters are straightforward but material: heating is oil-fired with boiler and underfloor heating; drainage is handled by a private treatment plant. The house is offered freehold and sits in a very affluent, low-crime area with good road and rail links. Council tax is described as quite expensive — an expected running cost for a property of this size and age.
For families seeking a character home in the Gloucestershire countryside, Hollingham House combines generous accommodation, scope for further development and mature gardens. Buyers should budget for ongoing maintenance customary to older stone houses, the cost of fuel for oil heating, and any works required should they pursue loft conversion or modernisation.
