Located in the ever-popular village of Woodchester, this charming ground floor apartment forms part of a handsome Cotswold stone conversion, blending character, convenience and a strong sense of community.
Inside, the property offers a modern, easy layout centred around a bright open-plan living space, ideal for both relaxing and entertaining. The contemporary kitchen sits neatly within the room, while two well-proportioned bedrooms and a bathroom are set just off the inner hallway. Outside, there is no private garden to maintain, but a pretty communal lawn provides a lovely spot to enjoy the sunshine without the upkeep, perfect for a low-maintenance lifestyle. The location is well placed, with easy access into both Stroud and Nailsworth for day-to-day needs, along with nearby countryside walks and the popular cycle path right on your doorstep. Positioned along an A-road, the property benefits from strong connectivity, making travel in and out straightforward. For those who enjoy a good local, The Fleece at Rooksmoor sits just a short stroll away. Further benefits include two allocated parking spaces and a well-maintained setting throughout. A great option for first-time buyers, downsizers or investors looking for a character home in a well-connected Cotswold setting.
Step into the apartment via the bright communal hall shared only with flat 2, and you’re welcomed into a bright and inviting open-plan living space, with wood effect flooring, designed very much with day-to-day living in mind. There’s a natural sense of room here, with plenty of space for a comfortable sofa setup, TV unit and a dining table, making it a genuinely sociable and versatile environment. A useful built-in storage cupboard also sits neatly within the living area, ideal for keeping everyday items tucked away and maintaining a clean, uncluttered feel.
To one side, enjoying a sunny aspect, the kitchen - upgraded in 2023 - has a smart, contemporary finish. It’s well arranged and practical, fitted with an integral oven, hob and extractor hood, along with integrated fridge and freezer. There’s also space for a washing machine, ensuring everything is neatly contained within the kitchen area while keeping the overall look streamlined.
A particularly nice feature is the subtle step up from the living space into the inner hallway, which creates a natural sense of separation between the living/kitchen area and the more private parts of the home, giving the apartment a slightly more zoned and considered feel.
From here, you’ll find two well-proportioned double bedrooms, both offering comfortable accommodation with space for wardrobes and additional furniture as needed; ideal whether used as bedrooms, a guest room or a home office.
The shower room sits conveniently off the hallway, easily accessible from both rooms, boasting large size, stylish ceramic floor and wall tiles, with the wash basin encased by a handy cupboard unit, and the addition of a heated towel rail.
The property is warmed by gas central heating, adding to the overall comfort and efficiency of the home.
Outside, while the property doesn’t have a private garden, it benefits from access to attractive communal grounds where lovely views across the valley can be enjoyed. In addition, there is a small courtyard area positioned directly beneath both bedroom windows which, although not formally included within the title, has been tended and used exclusively by the current owners during their time here offering a tucked-away spot to sit out.
The apartment also benefits from two private parking spaces, along with use of a shared external bin and bike store.
