Directions

The property is most easily found by leaving our office in Minchinhampton via West End, into Windmill Road and out towards Minchinhampton Common. On reaching the junction (Tom Longs Post), turn right, then left and then immediately right again down Brimscombe Hill. After a short distance turn right into the lay-by at the post box and Bryn Mawr will be found at the end of this short no-through lane on the right.

Description

Bryn Mawr from the Welsh for 'Big Hill', has been sympathetically extended by the vendors. The original parts date back several hundred years as can be seen by the thickness of the walls and the fact the building seems to grow naturally out of the hillside, at one with its surroundings. Consequently, Bryn Mawr has all the character and charm that make such period properties so special. At its heart is a 27 foot sitting room with an inglenook fireplace and wood burning stove at one end and a cosy snug off the other. There is also a cloakroom and utility room at this level. Adding the extension has created a spacious well appointed kitchen and breakfast room (including a wood burning stove), with the master bedroom and en-suite shower room above. The 3 original bedrooms and the family bathroom are on the first floor and a 'paddle' staircase leads from here to a full length and well appointed attic. Bryn Mawr is at the head of a no-through lane with two parking spaces and its garden lies to the front and side. In it is a wooden summer house/studio and a traditional stone outhouse with 2 rooms and obvious potential.

Location

Bryn Mawr is situated in Burleigh, a sought after hamlet high on the edge of Minchinhampton Common, famous for its views. The cottage is tucked away out of sight, in a little world of its own, surrounded by other period properties. Within walking distance of historic Minchinhampton, Bryn Mawr has the benefit of the Common on its doorstep, great for dog walks, with a popular pub at its centre (The Old Lodge) as well as a challenging 18 hole golf course, one of three locally. Nearby Stroud, dares to be different. As well as having four major supermarkets, it has an award winning Farmers Market, a thriving arts and music scene, its own theatre and a multi screen cinema. Trains into London Paddington from Stroud station are scheduled from 93 minutes into London Paddington and being close to Junction 13 of the M5 motorway there is the option of commuting to Bristol or the Midlands. Good schools both in the state and private sectors for all ages and abilities exist locally, there are numerous sports and social clubs, opportunities to ride, keeping a horse at livery, cycling on a network of little lanes and places to eat out.
