Approaching two-thirds acre westerly-facing private garden and woodland backing
Superb vaulted kitchen/family/breakfast room with underfloor heating
Ground-floor double bedroom with en-suite for guests or flexible use
Double garage, long driveway and parking for several vehicles
Original character: exposed pine floors and original fireplaces throughout
Built before 1900 with solid brick walls; likely little wall insulation
Oil-fired heating (boiler) — higher running costs than gas or electric
EPC D and Council Tax Band G — prospective running costs to consider
Set well back from Broad Street, Mill House is a spacious period detached home arranged over two floors with substantial private grounds approaching two-thirds of an acre. The property balances original character—exposed pine floors, wooden latch doors and original fireplaces—with a large, vaulted kitchen/family/breakfast room that provides a dramatic, light-filled heart for family life. A ground-floor bedroom with an en-suite adds flexibility for guests or multi-generational living.
Practical strengths include a detached double garage, long gravel driveway with extensive parking, and an oil-fired boiler providing radiator and underfloor heating in parts of the house. The plot is westerly-facing and backs onto woodland, offering privacy and a generous outdoor space for children and pets. Nearby village amenities and good road links to Gloucester make this a convenient rural family base.
Important considerations: the house was built before 1900 with solid brick walls and is likely to have little or no wall insulation; the main fuel is oil (not a community system). The energy performance is rated D and council tax is Band G, so running and heating costs may be higher than modern equivalents. Broadband is standard (vendor reports up to 70 Mbps) and mobile signal is excellent, but prospective buyers should confirm services to their needs.
Overall this is a characterful family home on a very large, private plot that will suit buyers seeking period charm and generous outdoor space. It will reward sympathetic updating, particularly around energy performance and any targeted modernisation works.
