Description
Enjoying an elevated position overlooking the Golden Valley, Barleycorn Cottage is a charming home dating back to 1680. The cottage is not listed but has been significantly altered, having been extended five times over the years including the snug, dining room/kitchen, the utility room and the garden room; it was previously a one-bedroom cottage and has now been altered into a four-bedroom home. Inside there are many lovely character features, including an inglenook fireplace, exposed beams and stone windows, which are now complemented by modern, country-style interiors. The décor is warm and cosy, and there is good natural light afforded by the large windows and the hilltop setting.
The accommodation is arranged over three floors and comprises an open plan sitting room and snug, a separate dining room, garden room, kitchen with adjoining utility room and cloakroom with WC. On the first floor there is a principal bedroom with en suite bath/shower room, two further bedrooms and a shower room. There is an office space on the second floor which could be used as a fourth bedroom, and has useful storage area.
Outside
Barleycorn Cottage enjoys an elevated setting, looking out over the Golden Valley from the front, where there is a large private driveway with space for several cars. The gardens are situated to the east side of the house, and are arranged over different levels, including lawns, terraced borders and flowerbeds, paved seating areas and storage sheds. From the top terrace, outside the garden room and snug, there is a fabulous patio area with far reaching views over the valley beyond.
Coppice Hill enjoys an elevated position between the market town of Stroud and the village of Chalford. The village, together with neighbouring Eastington, offers many amenities including pubs, shops, churches, a Post Office, two primary schools and Thomas Keble School, the local comprehensive. There are excellent walking, riding and cycling routes from the doorstep, while nearby Stroud provides more comprehensive facilities including a Waitrose supermarket, cinema and an award-winning farmers market.
