This substantial five-bedroom detached house occupies an elevated plot of approximately one third of an acre, backing directly onto Stinchcombe Woods. Nearly 2,700 sq ft of extended accommodation includes a large, high-spec open-plan kitchen/dining room with quartz worktops and integrated appliances, plus a matching utility room and two flexible reception rooms — practical for family life and entertaining. The ground floor benefits from underfloor heating throughout and wide glazed doors that open onto a private patio and mature lawn.
Upstairs offers five double bedrooms, two en-suites and two family bathrooms, providing comfortable space for large or multi-generational households. A sweeping driveway and integrated single garage give ample off-road parking. The house sits in a quiet, desirable edge-of-woodland location with countryside views yet remains within reach of Dursley’s amenities and commuter links to Bristol and Gloucester.
Buyers should note some practical considerations: the house was constructed in the late 1970s/early 1980s, so some mechanical and electrical elements may need review as part of ongoing maintenance. The plot slopes to the rear, which gives the site its elevated views but may require additional garden upkeep and maintenance. Council tax is relatively high, broadband speeds are average, and local crime statistics are higher than average for the wider area — all factual points to weigh against the property’s many positives.
Overall this is a roomy, thoughtfully extended family home in a private, semi-rural setting. It will suit families or professionals seeking generous living space, strong indoor–outdoor flow and woodland proximity, while those wanting a completely low-maintenance or brand-new systems package should budget for ongoing upkeep and typical modernisation over time.
