# 4 bedroom character property for sale (GL11 4AF) ## Property Details | Key | Value | |-----|-------| | Address | 4 WOODMANCOTE, DURSLEY, GLOUCESTERSHIRE GL11 4AF | | Price | £475,000 | | Bedrooms | 4 | | Last sold | £500,000 Apr 2022 | ## Description A wonderfully proportioned double fronted home dating back to 1890, well documented to have been once used as a Victorian school, with a particularly generous and productive westerly facing rear garden, and a superb recent kitchen extension. Arranged over three floors the accommodation is beautifully balanced, with a good-size sitting room and dining room either side of the original tiled entrance hallway. The sitting room has an attractive fireplace with log-burning stove, and the dining room has a feature fireplace and parquet flooring throughout. The rear kitchen extension is a particular feature offering ample space for kitchen/dining/family activities, well-connected to the garden, with the lofty design allowing for lots of natural light. The kitchen itself has pleasingly simple lines, solid timber work surfaces, and open shelving. There is an engineered oak floor throughout with the added benefit of under-floor heating. The first floor offers two large double bedrooms both with generous cupboard space, a recently fitted family bathroom with bath and separate walk-in shower cubicle (forming part of the recent rear extension), plus an additional cloakroom/WC. The top floor offers two further very generous double bedrooms (without any restricted headroom), the master with a particularly lovely outlook toward Stinchcombe Hill. The property, a much loved family home, has been the subject of various improvements in recent years, namely the rear kitchen/bathroom extension, a great deal of garden landscaping and external maintenance, and each of the front windows have been replaced with conservation timber double glazed sash windows. Beyond this, the property itself could now be improved with some cosmetic improvements throughout and replacement of windows to the rear elevation. Beneath the property there is a large cellar, accessed from the dining room. There is also a stone outbuilding which currently serves as the utility/washroom, alongside a further large shed. The westerly facing garden is a particular feature, relatively level, and planted with an array of established plants and shrubs. Furthermore, BY SEPARATE NEGOTIATION, there is an additional large section of adjoining land measuring 0.086 acres, currently home to several productive vegetable beds, greenhouses, a timber home office/studio/therapy room and a large gravelled area with parking for several cars. This land is accessed via a private driveway off of Lower Poole Road. The property is located in Woodmancote, on the outskirts of Dursley with beautiful countryside and woodland on the doorstep, while only a 5 minute walk away from the amenities of Dursley. Located on the Cotswold Way, Dursley offers an array of shops, supermarkets, restaurants and cafes along with The Pulse, a popular sports facility with pool, Stinchcombe Hill Golf Club, a library, bus station, and the famous Old Spot Public House. These are all within a comfortable 10-15 minute walk. Durlsey C of E Primary Academy a short walk away, is a well-regarded primary school and popular Rednock secondary school is conveniently positioned just beyond the town centre. For those needing to commute, Cam and Dursley train station just a 10 minute drive away provides commuter links to Bristol, Gloucester and Cheltenham.
