Description - Hillside offers a spacious family home in a stunning, elevated location in the village of Cranham. The home works superbly for everyday living and equally well for entertaining, with a thoughtfully planned layout, designed to maximise the magnificent valley views. A glass panelled entrance sets the tone for this light-filled home, which is instantly welcoming, with a great sense of space and plenty of natural light. Opening to a large kitchen/breakfast/living room, this open-plan space is clearly the hub of the home. Granite worktops and a centre island provide plentiful space for prepping food and fitted units offer ample storage. The sitting room is set to the front of the house with double doors opening to a raised seating area, ideal for alfresco entertaining. The open-plan layout lends itself superbly to everyday dining, as well as larger gatherings, allowing friends and family to relax and chat, whilst cooking up a feast. The L shape of the room works well for multiple uses and part of the room is currently used as a music room, to house a grand piano but would also create an ideal dining area. A separate dual aspect dining room is set to the front of the house and would work equally well as a snug.
Off the kitchen, a rear hall leads through to a good-sized utility/boot room and a useful cloakroom, together with access to an enclosed patio. A rear staircase leads to the first floor, which opens to a 'statement' glass panelled upper hall with huge oak beams and access to a gravel parking area, the garage and the common. Four spacious double bedrooms are located on the first floor, two with en-suite and two sharing a Jack and Jill bathroom. All of the rooms have been carefully laid out to provide ample discreet storage and plenty of natural light. The principal bedroom benefits from wonderful views across the village and towards Cranham Woods.
The enclosed garden is set to the side and front of the house and comprises gently sloping lawns and well-stocked borders. A gravel driveway provides parking for several cars, together with further gated parking to the rear of the house and a garage.
Location - Hillside is located in a lovely elevated location, bordering Cranham Common. An archetypal Cotswold village, Cranham has a popular primary school, local pub, church and cricket ground, along with a good sense of community spirit. Set in a spectacular wooded valley, the village is surrounded by stunning countryside with numerous public footpaths and bridleways to explore. One of the key draws to the area is the excellent choice of schools in both the private and state sector. Stroud, Gloucester and Cheltenham all have sought after grammar schools and in the private sector, Beaudesert Park School is only a few miles away in Minchinhampton and Cheltenham Ladies and College are within easy reach, in Cheltenham. Nearby Painswick, often referred to as the 'queen of the Cotswolds' has excellent amenities with a stylish boutique hotel, several pubs and independent restaurant. There is also a popular 18 hole golf course on the Painswick Beacon. There are several major supermarkets in Stroud including Waitrose and superb shopping in Cheltenham. London is circa 90 minutes from nearby Stroud Station. Junction 12a of the M5 motorway is approximately 10 minutes drive away.
Directions - From our Painswick office, follow the A46 for approximately 2 miles towards Cheltenham. Circa 400 yards after the Royal William pub, turn right, signposted Cranham/Birdlip. Turn immediately right again towards Cranham Village and continue for approximately one mile. As you enter the village, you will see The Scout Centre on your left hand side; continue up the other side of the hill and after circa 50 yards, turn right by the Village Hall. Hillside is located circa 20 yards along the lane, on the left hand side.

About this agent
Painswick, arguably one of the prettiest villages in the Cotswolds, is situated between Cheltenham and Stroud. It contains an exceptional number of fine old buildings dating from the 17th and 18th centuries with a particularly special Grade 1 listed church as its centrepiece. From the village there are commanding views in every direction across a verdant landscape comprising unspoilt valleys, interspersed by a series of little country lanes. The village, which has good local amenities, is popular with all ages but particularly amongst the retired. Painswick is ideally located for Cheltenham and Gloucester and within two hours of London by road, being very accessible to the A417 which links the M4 (Junction 15 with Junction 11a of the M5 motorway). Cheltenham has a main line station (Birmingham New Street from 45 minutes) and this famous Regency Spa town is also famous for its racing, literature, music and science festivals as well as its excellent schools, shopping, restaurants and theatre. The Painswick Office serves the village and a large area from across to the River Severn, round the southern edge of Gloucester and Cheltenham to the villages to the north of Cirencester. It is consequently responsible for selling properties in some of the most sought after locations in the whole region while working closely with its sister offices at Stroud and at Minchinhampton and The Mayfair Office in central London.
