The Mount is a pretty detached character cottage situated in a superb position at popular Chalford Hill. This elevated spot is well away from passing traffic, yet still very much part of the thriving village community, and allows for the most fantastic view across the Golden Valley to woodland and countryside. The property is built using traditional methods from Cotswold stone under a pitched roof. The current owners have made many improvements to the house, including replacing the roof and installing a new bathroom. The resulting property has all of the charm one would expect from this style of home, but it has been brought right up to date, with accommodation arranged over three floors. An entrance porch, kitchen with walk in larder and Rayburn stove, dining room and 21' sitting room with wood burning stove can be found on the ground floor. Three bedrooms and a bathroom are on the first floor, with three further rooms at the top of the house, on the second floor. This top floor space can be accessed via a door at the back of the house, and as such would be the ideal work from home space, or as accommodation for a teenager. The property is tastefully decorated and furnished, and the windows at the front of the property take in the superb outlook. A home full of character - viewing highly recommended.

The interior is complemented by a parking area for two cars, an attached workshop, outside W.c, a utility room/studio and glorious terraced gardens that make the most of the view and the sun. The property is accessed by driving down Rack Hill, with the parking and gate into the property here. 39 steps lead down to the cottage, with the gardens found at the front and the side. The front garden is laid to lawn, and makes most of the sunny aspect and lovely views across and along the valley, with a hidden seating area by the utility room/studio. A couple of steps lead down to the front of the property onto the lower terrace, which is stocked with a variety of established shrubs. These planted terraces extend to the east of the plot, with raised beds, a greenhouse and a shed at the top of this area. The whole plot is filled with mature trees and planting, and there is colour and interest everywhere you look.

The property is set above Chalford High Street, and as such is perfectly placed for both the creative neighbourhood here and the school gate community of Chalford Hill. Local amenities at Chalford include a great primary school, a community shop, sports club, and a petrol station/garage. Nearby Bussage benefits from a doctors' surgery, a chemist, a convenience store and Chinese take away. There is also a bus stop, with regular services to Stroud, 20 metres from the property entrance. Stroud town benefits from a variety of local independent shops and stores, pubs serving locally supplied beers and ciders and plenty of cafes, bars and restaurants to eat and socialise. The wider area has a wide range of shops and amenities, including supermarkets, a hospital, state and private schools, a leisure and sports centre, award winning weekly farmers market and a main line railway station with inter city services travelling to London Paddington (approx. 90 minutes). Cirencester (10 miles), Cheltenham (15 miles) and Swindon (25 miles) are all within comfortable driving distance.

Property Information
The property is freehold. Gas central heating (via the Rayburn), mains electricity, water and drainage. The council tax band is E. We have checked the service and reception levels available locally through the ofcom network checker and the broadband services available include superfast, and you should have good voice calling and data service from the main mobile providers, although this may be limited inside the property. The current owners use Wifi/Internet boosting to overcome this.
