An impressive six-bedroom detached family house arranged over three floors, approaching 4,000 sqft, set in a private plot of over a third of an acre in Slimbridge. The ground floor social heart is an open-plan kitchen/dining/family room with granite worktops, bifolding doors to the patio and underfloor heating — ideal for family living and entertaining. Living and play spaces include four reception rooms, a study and a useful utility, giving flexibility for home working, hobbies or formal entertaining.
Bedrooms are generous and arranged across the first and second floors. The principal suite includes a walk-in wardrobe, a substantial en-suite and a Juliet balcony with countryside views; two further bedrooms on the second floor have vaulted ceilings and roof lights. There are three shower rooms plus a family bathroom, so the layout suits a large family or multi-generational living.
Outdoors the property benefits from a large paved driveway with electric gates, detached single garage with workshop space, an additional brick-built outbuilding and mature, private gardens backing onto open countryside. The setting offers strong privacy and panoramic rural views from all aspects — a key draw for buyers relocating from urban areas.
Practical considerations: heating is oil-fired with a boiler and radiators and the property uses a septic tank. Broadband is reported as very slow in the area and council tax is in Band E. The house was built mid-20th century (c.1950–66) and, while well-presented, buyers should budget for long-term maintenance typical of a large detached home and for replacing or upgrading services where required.
