Property description

Lotus is a wonderful detached Grade II Listed period stone house, set back from Private Road, one of the most sought after roads in this stunning location, just yards from hundreds of acres of National Trust common land. Overflowing with a peaceful atmosphere and a host of original features, the house offers a huge amount of space, for just a family, or to take advantage of benefits such as the 3 bedroom annexe, which can fulfil a number of different needs, having its own entrance. There's a very impressive entrance hall, with black and white chequered tiling, and a beautiful stairway up to the first floor. There are 4 principal reception rooms, including a 29' drawing room, with double bay windows with window seats which overlook the gardens. The 25' kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with plenty of units and appliances and from here one can access the gardens, the utility area, the annexe, and another first floor suite, for staff if required. Though the annexe provides self-contained accommodation, with 3 bedrooms and shower room, there are another 5 bedrooms off the main first floor landing, along with various bathrooms/shower rooms, and a further 3 bedrooms above, on the second floor. The whole house has not only an array of original period features including open fireplaces, stone mullioned windows, solid oak doors, and window seats, but a tangible atmosphere of tranquillity. The mature grounds offer a secluded haven, and, at one end of the garden, there's a detached studio/gym, with heating and toilet facilities. There's a flagstoned garage but also plenty of parking. The surrounding area is delightful. Minchinhampton lies less than 3 miles away, with a good range of facilities including local shops, health facilities, pubs, church, library and Primary School. There are plenty of sociable societies to join if one wishes. The historic Market Square is particularly appealing. The town is only about 4 miles from Stroud, with more facilities and main line connection to Paddington within about 1.5 hours. Cirencester and Cheltenham are also easily accessible. Rodborough and Minchinhampton Commons are an absolutely superb area for walking, golf and general recreation. The views from here are outstanding, and are yet another reason as to why living here is such a pleasure. EPC - Exempt
