Location
Drybrook is set within The Royal Forest of Dean - an area which offers 24,000 acres of glorious countryside and presents an ideal landscape for outdoor activities such as walking and cycling.
The village boasts a wealth of amenities including a GP surgery, a village shop, a pub, a chemist and a junior school. Drybrook's centre is a short walk - approximately 200 metres - from Parva Dene.
The closest town, Mitcheldean, gives a sought-after secondary school, Dene Magna, graded 'Outstanding' by Ofsted. The town also provides another primary school, a GP surgery, two village shops, three pubs, a butcher, a chemist and various leisure facilities.

The home at a glance
The internal layout of this beautifully laid-out house flows exceptionally well and there is ample space for visitors to stay. The heart of the home is a generously sized reception room which serves as both a comfortable lounge and a formal dining room, which can easily accommodate eight people around the table.
The kitchen, sourced from Wren's premier range, is newly fitted and includes shaker-style units, presented in a timelessly elegant neutral colour palate. There is a variety of integrated appliances which include a dishwasher, microwave and a conventional oven, and it is worth noting that the kitchen also carries an instant boiling water tap and presently houses a modern, eco-range Aga - a staple of country life - which is available via separate negotiation. The kitchen also has space for an American-style fridge/freezer and plumbing for both a washing machine and a tumble dryer within the 'laundry zone' in the far right-hand corner. The ground floor of Parva Dene also includes a double bedroom as well as a wetroom, which could offer comfortable and convenient accommodation to a less mobile family member.
A staircase within the reception hall leads to a galleried landing-cum-study space, which gives access to the other three bedrooms as well as a family bathroom - which is complete with a three-piece white suite. This level of the property is beautifully bright and carries lovely views over the wooded hills of Wigpool and Ruardean. The substantial master bedroom boasts a vaulted ceiling, Velux windows, a large built-in wardrobe and an en-suite bathroom. Of the other two bedrooms, both feature characterful pitched ceilings. One has ample room for a double bed and the other presently accommodates a double sofabed and is used as a second sitting room.
Outside, the verdant garden includes two sitting areas, offering a choice of alfresco dining spots. An attractive assortment of well-established blooms and shrubs beautify the space and in terms of parking, there is a paved driveway.
