5 bedroom detached house for sale

Location:

Clements End is a small hamlet in the Forest of Dean, in a setting that offers an excellent location for peaceful country walks. There is also a Methodist Church with a welcoming community around this place of worship, with a weekly service each Sunday.
The closest village, Sling, includes a family-run gastro pub, The Miners, and this highly commended country inn has won various accolades throughout the years. The Royal Forest of Dean offers 24,000 acres of glorious countryside and presents an ideal landscape for outdoor activities such as walking and cycling.

The home at a glance:

A capacious open-plan living space serves as the heart of this beautifully bright family home. There is a chic sitting room with a wooden floor and, from here, three steps lead downstairs to a dining room. A series of sliding glass doors frame a lovely view over the rear garden and at the far end of the space, there is a generously sized kitchen - complete with plenty of base-and-wall mounted units, glass display cupboards, a 1 + 1/2 ceramic sink with mixer tap, a Rangemaster cooker, two built-in wine racks, an integrated dishwasher and space for an American-style fridge/freezer.

On the opposing end of the ground floor, there is a second sitting room. This space includes a high, pitched ceiling, an alcove which once housed a fireplace, and an exposed stone wall which features a nook for a dartboard.

The ground floor also features a cloakroom, a utility room and a spacious reception hall which includes the staircase to the first floor.
Of the bedrooms, all carry lovely, elevated views, of either the rear garden or surrounding woodland. All four bedrooms are large enough to accommodate double beds and the master features two built-in wardrobes, plus an en-suite bathroom. The second largest bedroom meanwhile features its own access into the Jack-and-Jill family bathroom - which includes a four-piece white suite.

The annexe:

A former detached garage was converted into a self-contained home in 2018. The entrance leads into the lounge-cum-dining room and plenty of light pours into this space through three aspects. This leads into the kitchen - an area which carries chic grey units with quartz worktops and modern integrated appliances, including a dishwasher, washing machine, fridge/freezer, plus a 1 + 1/2 sink with mixer tap, a pull-out pantry, a slide-and-hide oven, a Neff induction hob and an extractor hood.

Upstairs, there is a beautifully bright bedroom which boasts a vaulted ceiling, an attractive en-suite shower room, Velux windows and a window overlooking ancient woodland, framed by working shutters.

The grounds:

An expansive patio stretches across the entire length of the main house which extends towards a large wooden deck - both of which present one with a perfect spot to host garden parties. This is beautified by a fishpond with a water feature.
A level lawn stretches away from the home, and there is a variety of mature trees growing within the expanse. At the far end, there is an enclosed kitchen garden with two vegetable plots plus a generous greenhouse. In terms of outbuildings, there is a large shed, split into two rooms. There is also a hardstanding within the garden offering space for another shed or summerhouse.

At the front, there is a generous driveway, set behind stone pillars and attractive wrought-iron gates, in turn offering space for numerous vehicles to include more than adequate space for a caravan or motorhome. In addition there are separate gates leading into the rear garden and the potential for the addition of some garaging, subject to necessary planning permissions.
