A truly unique detached country home, currently operating as a successful holiday let, enjoying an enviable elevated position on Joys Green Road, Lydbrook, with breathtaking panoramic views across the Wye Valley & surrounding Forest of Dean countryside.
Originally dating back to the 1850s, this characterful cottage has been thoughtfully extended over the years to create a spacious & versatile home arranged over several split levels. Bursting with charm, the property blends traditional features including exposed timbers, wooden flooring & a wood-burning stove with modern comforts, making it equally suited as a family residence, holiday home or investment opportunity.
The accommodation offers four versatile reception rooms, including a welcoming lounge with French doors opening onto the spectacular elevated decking, a cosy sitting room with wood-burning stove, a dedicated dining room with direct access outside, and a separate study/home office. The kitchen is fitted with a Rangemaster cooker and ample storage, whilst a stylish cloakroom completes the ground floor.
To the upper floors are three well-proportioned bedrooms, including a stunning master bedroom with vaulted ceilings, picturesque arched window framing far-reaching countryside views & an en-suite bathroom. The remaining bedrooms are served by a contemporary family bathroom.
Outside is where this property truly excels. Expansive wraparound decking creates a fantastic entertaining space, complete with seating areas, a hot tub, sauna & uninterrupted views stretching across the valley. There are numerous places to relax & enjoy the peaceful woodland surroundings, whilst ample off-road parking & mature gardens further enhance this exceptional setting.

Offering a variety of seating and entertaining areas, the deck provides the ideal setting for al fresco dining, relaxing with family and friends, or simply enjoying the ever-changing scenery. A hot tub enjoys an elevated position overlooking the valley, while multiple sets of doors provide seamless access into the dining room, entrance hallway, porch & sitting room, effortlessly blending indoor & outdoor living.

This level also provides access to the property's private sauna, which can be reached either from the snug or independently from the driveway, creating a wonderful spa-like retreat.
The grounds continue to impress with beautifully established woodland gardens arranged over several levels.

Rich in wildlife, the gardens are regularly visited by pheasants, rabbits and a wide variety of birdlife, making this an exceptional setting for nature lovers whilst retaining spectacular far-reaching views from the elevated position.
