Description

An impressive refurbished period farm house with over 1.5 acres of grounds in an attractive rural setting. Set amidst glorious Gloucestershire countryside with far-reaching views, The Grange is a handsome period home of presence and character, providing accommodation which is perfect for modern living. Extending to over 4,000 sq. ft over three floors, this is a property of scale and flexibility, which is further enhanced by a detached home studio or office. Its interiors are light, airy and cleverly arranged to offer both convivial entertaining spaces and areas for quiet retreat. The setting and proportions of the house make it ideal for multi-generational living. From the moment you step into the traditional entrance hall, the tone of the house is set. The ground floor flows with a natural sense of balance between formal and informal living spaces. To one side lies the comfortable sitting room - a bright and inviting space where French doors open directly onto the rear terrace and gardens, making it ideal for both relaxation and summer entertaining. To the other, the family room is a strikingly atmospheric reception space, centred around a substantial inglenook fireplace with an open fire. Exposed beams and a sense of character add to the charm, while a wide opening draws you into the impressive kitchen and dining room beyond. The kitchen is the true heart of The Grange, perfectly planned for those who love to cook, host and gather. Windows to either side of the room let in lots of natural light, while the cabinetry and integrated appliances combine function with style. A large central island provides both a focal point and practical workspace. The adjoining dining space is generously proportioned making it ideal for family suppers and larger celebrations, again, with French doors providing a link to the gardens beyond. The ground floor is completed by a practical utility room, cloakroom and storage. The first floor is home to four appealing double bedrooms, each finished with an attention to detail that runs throughout the house. Three enjoy the luxury of their own en suite bathrooms, while all benefit from built-in wardrobes, generous proportions and views of the scenic surroundings. The second floor offers a further suite of flexible accommodation. These rooms, currently arranged as a living room, kitchen diner and bedroom plus a shower room, lend themselves to guest accommodation, teenagers seeking independence, or equally well to home working or hobbies. The configuration allows the house to adapt to the changing needs of the household. Approached along a sweeping private driveway culminating in a generous parking area and turning space, the house sits well in its plot. To the rear, a broad terrace provides the perfect setting for outdoor dining and entertaining, leading onto lawns bordered by mature planting. The gardens are designed to be both manageable and restful, framing uninterrupted views of the countryside beyond. The detached outbuilding has been converted to create garaging, storerooms and a smart first floor office suite, making it ideal for home working or running a small business (subject to planning, if applicable). The Grange represents a rare opportunity: a large family home of real charm and heritage, lovingly refurbished and presented in superb decorative order throughout. Being set within an appealing rural location of immense convenience means that this impressive house offers a great lifestyle, flexibility and a home that makes a statement.
