Description

A superb individual detached Arts and Crafts house in a wonderful position on Convent Lane with three bedrooms, circa 0.75 acres of land and planning permission to create an alternative dwelling if desired. Greystones a blank-slate with the potential to extend the charming Arts & Crafts style house, or to build a substantial modern family home (approx. 4000 sq ft) with stunning valley views. Rather unusually, all the hard work has been done to secure planning permission for both options, and either could now be modified to meet your exact needs and preferences. Greystones offers some of the best views in the area and offers a very strong sense of privacy. Option 1: Extend the existing house. Built with traditional Cotswold stone, the existing house features a dining space, sitting room, study, kitchen, and a conservatory on the ground floor, with a master bedroom with en-suite, family bathroom, and two further bedrooms upstairs. The house is in need of total renovation internally plus a replacement/repair to the existing roof. Planning exists for the Demolition of the conservatory, and building of a two storey side extension and single storey rear extension. See S.21/2989/HHOLD. A flat space and retaining wall has been created behind the current house at great expense, which could be used for extensive parking, erection of a double garage, or even building of a swimming pool (subject to planning). Option 2: Build your own dream grand designs house. See S.22/0560/FUL. This design features a large upside-down house where the main living space has stunning views down the valley from an impressive balcony. The flat area mentioned above could be used as a base to lay foundations, or planning could be resubmitted to build on top of the current house footprint. The existing house would be demolished, and the extensive Cotswold stone could be sold, or used to build new garaging or similar. Outside Extensive lawned gardens are positioned to the front of the property and are an impressive feature with an array of pretty well-established trees and shrubs including a striking Cedar tree. The garden ends with a traditional Cotswold stone wall which is positioned well above the road bringing yet more privacy. A paved sun terrace is positioned to the front and side of the house giving the choice between views or tranquility. There is parking and an existing garage at the entrance by the road. The property is adjacent to an award-winning vineyard for all your wine and champagne needs. Situation Local amenities include excellent Primary Schools in Woodchester & Amberley and Grammar Schools in Stroud as well as the well-regarded Beaudesert Park prep school also close by. There is also a village pub in North Woodchester, a Post Office and two Churches. Country walks are close at hand on Selsley Common plus Woodchester Lakes are a very short walk and a favourite of the vendors' children. Stroud & Nailsworth are both within 3 miles, each offering a wide selection of shops, educational and recreational facilities with regular fast rail services into London (Paddington) available from Stroud. Additional Information AGENTS NOTE: The vendor is splitting the current title and our map roughly represents the land included with the sale but please speak to us for more information. There is further land available behind the house by separate negotiation, which is currently small orchard. There is an existing metal fence delineating the boundary, and privacy hedging will be added in the correct season.
