The accommodation is well presented and versatile with the ground floor being comprised of a spacious double reception room with sash windows, stripped pine flooring and a wood burning stove, a dining room and a fitted kitchen with a range of integrated appliances.

To the front, the driveway offers parking for several cars in addition to the purpose-built large single garage fitted with a remotely operated door.

Situation

Painswick, the “Queen of the Cotswolds”, is a thriving community nestling in a delightful Cotswolds setting. Constructed of mellow locally quarried stone, the town has many beautiful buildings dating back as far as the 14th Century. Painswick Churchyard is famous for its impressive array of table tombs and its 99 yew trees about which folklore holds that if a 100th should grow the devil will pull it out. The Village offers a playgroup and primary school with many secondary schools (including grammar schools) being available in the surrounding towns of Stroud, Gloucester, Cheltenham and Cirencester. There are several local shops, galleries, tearooms, 2 pubs and restaurants in the village along with a pharmacy, doctors’ surgery and dentists whilst the surrounding towns provide a good range of social, recreational and retail amenities to suit all tastes and budgets. Recreational opportunities include tennis, rugby, cricket and bowls clubs with many other groups meeting at the Painswick Centre.
