Set in a peaceful elevated position with glorious views, Hillside House is a well-proportioned equestrian property tucked away in a beautiful part of west Gloucestershire.
Set well back from what is a quiet rural lane, the house and stables are approached via a long sweeping driveway. Dating to around 1880, the original house has been significantly extended in two large parts, most recently in 1996 and now extends to around 2,422 square feet over two floors. Whilst it is a very comfortable and well-proportioned family home, there is still plenty of potential to develop the house further.
The house briefly comprises a farmhouse kitchen with a duel aspect that looks towards the driveway and the stables. Just off the kitchen is a snug complete with a Rayburn and there's a large very practical utility room. A spacious living room that focuses on an open fire also takes in views of the gardens and paddocks on three sides. Finally, a second versatile reception room could be used as a study, dining room or playroom.
Upstairs, with great views in all directions, there are four bedrooms, a bathroom and a shower room. The master bedroom spans the width of the house and was originally designed as two double bedrooms before being incorporated into one very generous room.
Services: Lpg central heating. Mains water and electricity. Private waste. Full Fibre to the Premises with 'Hyperfast' (up to 900Mbps) via Gigaclear.
The Stables
The main outbuilding that houses the stables is of concrete block and brick construction under a high pitched tiled roof. The building comprises three large (12'x12') loose boxes, a feed room and a fourth much larger box (currently used as a secure store) which leads straight out into an adjoining all weather turnout area. There is water and electricity connected.
Adjacent to the stable building there is a useful timber frame tractor/hay barn.
Post and railed on all four sides with a set of riding mirrors along the short side, the manege measures 40x20m and has a Martin Collins surface (Waxed Activ Track with Clopf Fibres) which was renewed in 2010.
The paddocks are fenced with mature hedge boundaries and with water drinkers in situ.
Agents' note: There are two public footpaths that cross the property. The Seller confirms that they are little used.
The rural hamlet of Bulley is situated in the heart of the Severn Vale between the villages of Churcham and Tibberton, on the northern edge of the Royal Forest of Dean.
The property is set under the recognisable and locally iconic backdrop of May Hill with the Cathedral city of Gloucester being easily accessible as well as the fashionable Spa town of Cheltenham and riverside market town of Ross-on-Wye, both of which are around 25-30 minutes drive away.
