5 Bedrooms Link-detached house for sale in South Street, Uley, Dursley GL11 | £ 725,000

Property Description

Stunning views across the valley, over open fields with barely a house in sight, this former Press House for the wool mills has character and charm in abundance. Kick back on the terrace, listen to the sounds of the countryside and relax.

The beauty of this three storey quirky house is in the detail at the back, the very part the vendors enjoy, sitting on the south facing terrace basking in the glory of the stunning and far reaching views across Owlpen and Lampern Hill.

Built in the 1800's, formerly part of Sheppards Mill and used for pressing the wool during manufacture, elements of the industrial nature can still be seen in the house today and indeed when the current vendors undertook their substantial renovation project in 2005 they uncovered and incorporated more features into the rooms.

Entrance to the house is from the rear and opens onto a tiled floor with stairs rising to the first floor. The sitting room is a spacious room integrating beams and a beautiful stone fireplace with an open fire into a light and airy room with French doors waiting to be thrown open to enjoy the views. The John Lewis kitchen has been designed for ample storage, a sociable space with a large bespoke table with built in seating for twelve with storage beneath. The kitchen is well equipped with an integrated double oven and gas hob, two integrated fridges plus dishwasher, washing machine and tumble dryer. A door leads to the side of the house where there was formerly a garage, this could be developed to create an extension to the kitchen, add a utility room or a further reception room, all taking full advantage of the stunning views.

On the first floor are three double bedrooms, all of which take full advantage of the wonderful views, wooden floorboards and two of the rooms have fitted wardrobes. The family bathroom has a white suite with a bath and overhead shower, heated towel rail and a large window from which to soak up the outlook. A door in the corridor leads to the front of the house and the street.

The second floor provides plenty of surprises, the stair case opens into a light and airy reception room with a large picture window framing the endless sky and green fields which surround this attractive house, exposed beams in the vaulted ceiling and a brick fireplace set the tone for this former mill, move into the corridor with velux windows facing the front of the house and space to read and relax. There are two further bedrooms, a double and a good-sized single, they share a large bathroom with a bath and separate double shower.

Press House has the benefit of a gas fired central heating system, modern aluminium double glazed windows and is hard wired for speakers in the ground floor rooms.

There is parking at the front of the property for at least two cars on a small triangular lawn, which could be gravelled over to make more parking, a drive leads down to the side of the property with space to park a further two cars or alternatively build a garage subject to the usual planning considerations.

The south facing terrace overlooks the beautifully stocked garden which lies below the house, with mature plants, shrubs and trees, paths wind down to the bottom where there is a lawn area and fruit trees.
