Location

Sintra is located at the head of the Painswick Valley, directly below Cranham Common, an idyllic location where time feels as if it has stood still and the loudest noise is often bird song! The bungalow is part of a tiny hamlet of about four properties. Tucked away at the foot of the valley, it is approached down ancient lanes which see minimal passing traffic. The outlook on all sides is spectacular and Sintra's grounds a real paradise for wildlife - Roe deer being regular visitors. Painswick 'The jewel of the Cotswolds' is nearby, with good local services and Cranham is a typical English village with pub, church and cricket team as well as a popular primary school. Proximity to Cheltenham is a particular advantage. This pretty Regency town has excellent shopping, restaurants, theatre and a wide choice of schools both state and private, in the secondary sector. Sintra is normally within 2 hours of London by road with trains from Stroud Station (8 miles), scheduled from 93 minutes into London Paddington. There are exceptional walks in the immediate vicinity, the slopes of the valley being flanked by mature beech woods and the adjacent lanes, great for cyclists to explore with a challenging 18 hole golf club at Painswick.

Stroud Railway Station - 8 miles, Gloucester Railway Station - 10 miles, Cirencester - 11 miles, Cheltenham - 9 miles, M5 Motorway junction 11a - 3 miles. Distances are approximate.

Directions

The property is most easily located by leaving our office in Painswick in the direction of Cheltenham on the A46. Leave the village of Painswick and continue for several miles.

Continue down this lane for approximately half a mile and where it forks, keep left. Sintra is the first property thereafter on the right hand side, with wooden 5 bar gate to the driveway.

Description

The sale of Sintra represents an exceptionally rare re-development opportunity for anyone who has always wanted to create a spectacular new home with the additional advantage of having a wonderful rural setting. The potential that the existing building offers is obvious.

Sintra is mainly built of brick faced in natural stone, so has a very solid feel with parquet floors being a particular feature and an impressive fireplace in the sitting room. At the head of its plot with a private driveway, the bungalow has a lovely outlook with no other property immediately visible, just unspoilt countryside, but there is the comfort of neighbours immediately down the lane. Currently, the accommodation comprises of 2 reception rooms and a conservatory, 4 double bedrooms, bathroom and shower room with a tandem garage and car port. The gardens are gently sloping with extensive lawns merging into an ancient orchard which extends down to the Painswick stream at the foot of the valley.
