Description
An elegant and well-proportioned detached house, in an elevated position with far-reaching views
High Croft is an imposing early Victorian detached family home, quietly positioned towards the end of a no-through road and enjoys spectacular distant views across the valley towards Rodborough Common. The house retains much of its original charm and character and this is immediately evident upon entering the house. The wide entrance hall creates a wonderful first impression and is flanked by the immensely elegant drawing room (with its adjoining classic conservatory) and similarly elegant dining room. The large kitchen breakfast room has a gas fired Aga and ample space for a dining table. A full depth utility/boot room and guest WC complete the ground floor accommodation.
Upstairs there are six bedrooms on the first floor, four of which benefit from the outstanding views, served by a family bathroom and separate shower room. Stairs lead up to the large attic which spans the footprint of the house and has windows, skylights, power and radiators. High Croft is situated within a conservation area and is not listed. Outside
The mature and immaculately maintained gardens blend seamlessly into the surrounding countryside and offer many idyllic locations to sit and enjoy the views, find shade beneath trees or to entertain al fresco. With its wonderful variety of plants, shrubs and perennials, the gardens retain their charm all year round.
Whilst parking is available immediately in front of the house, there is also space to park in front of the studio (formerly a double garage) halfway up the drive.
