Description

The existing wooden bungalow on this site, has one of the best outlooks in Box. Set near the heart of the village, close to its charming little church, it has uninterrupted southerly-westerly views stretching away into the far distance. It was the obvious potential that attracted the vendor to purchase it in 2017. He has since obtained planning permission (see artist's impression on the front of the details), for a really spectacular new building to replace the existing bungalow, while incorporating the existing stone barn, into the new house. Plans show a building configured to take maximum advantage of the setting, with a superb open plan reception area at its centre, comprising of the kitchen, living and dining areas with sliding french windows out onto a viewing balcony. All four bedrooms are shown as being en-suite one of them also having a study off. There is a an additional cloakroom off the hall and a utility room with an external store room. The property has off road parking.

Location

Box village is located on the west facing slopes of an unspoilt valley, close to the historic Minchinhampton. Box is much sought after as it sees minimal traffic but is ideally located for accessing the many amenities this glorious part of the Cotswolds has to offer. It is close to Minchinhampton Common, part of over 600 acres of natural countryside, free for anyone to enjoy and the venue for one of three challenging golf courses in the vicinity. While you could walk into Minchinhampton, just down the hill is Nailsworth, with excellent shopping including the famous delicatessen - 'Wiilliam's Kitchen'. Nearby, Stroud has three major supermarkets, a cinema, leisure centre and main line station - regular services into London Paddington scheduled from 95 minutes. Box itself has a real spirit with much going on, detailed in its excellent monthly newsletter. The majority of its properties are built in the attractive mellow limestone and are several hundred years old. There are lovely walks around the village itself and in the neighbouring Box Wood which the village recently acquired for the community to enjoy.
