Description

Nettles is a very desirable detached home, originally built by a respected local builder for his own use. It therefore has an excellent plot and an exceptional interior - spacious and well appointed. The front door leads to a formal entrance hall, cloakroom and a single bedroom with fitted wardrobes. A short flight of stairs from here leads to the ground floor with the dining room and garden room beyond, the sitting room which is double aspect with a feature fireplace, built in display units and bookshelves and the kitchen/breakfast room. The latter is fitted with modern German units and easily accommodates a table for informal meals. It opens directly into a large utility room. On the upper floor is the master bedroom with shower room en-suite and two further bedrooms (all with fitted wardrobes), bathroom with shower cubicle and an excellent home office, overlooking the garden. The garden is a special feature of the property. It is fully stocked with different areas for sitting out, runs down to the Painswick stream and is comprehensively screened from its neighbours. The private driveway can accommodate several cars and there is a large double garage with integral access from the house.

Directions

The property is most easily found by leaving our office in Painswick in the Stroud direction on the A46. Turn left after a short distance, immediately after the car park, into Stamages Lane. Continue down the hill and turn left at the little crossroads into Kingsmill Lane. Continue almost to the other end of Kings Mill Lane where the entrance to Nettles can be on the right hand side opposite the turning into Randalls Field.

Location

Painswick is one of the Cotswold's gems. Very pretty with a wealth of historic old buildings at its center it is surrounded by dramatic countryside. Nettles is situated on the edge of Painswick in the valley below off a quiet little lane, in a mature setting. The aspect is south - south east so it attracts plenty of sun. The village which has an inclusive community, has good local amenities as well as places to eat out, notably at The Painswick, just up the hill. It is in a strategic location in the south-west of the Cotswolds, between Stroud and the Regency town of Cheltenham. The former has 4 major supermarkets and a famous Farmers Market, as well as a main line station - London Paddington from just over 90 minutes. The latter has excellent shopping, numerous Festivals (Literary, Music and Science among others) and its well known race course. Access to the M5 motorway is good and London normally under two hours by car. There are lovely walks in the vicinity of Painswick, which also has a challenging 18 hole golf course. Special places to visit nearby, include the Rococco Gardens at Painswick House, with its magnificent snow drop collection.
