Property description

Council tax band: D
An immaculately presented, and deceptively spacious, extended Cotswold stone detached cottage on the outskirts of Uley village. Dating back to 1810 Holly Cottage has been sympathetically restored and extended by the current owners to now offer beautifully balanced and generously proportioned accommodation over two floors.

The hamlet of Shadwell is a well-regarded no-through lane flanked by farmland and boasting magnificent views of Lampern Wood and the Cotswold Escarpment. This location benefits from a network of popular footpaths and bridlepaths across wonderful countryside, and a thriving community spirit, while the village itself is a comfortable 20 minute walk away.

The ground floor has a useful entrance porch with stone flooring and solid timber doors leading into the sitting room which is a cosy room with a log-burning stove, beautifully restored dressers, and a wonderful outlook across neighbouring farmland. The adjoining drawing room shares this wonderful outlook and also benefits from a log-burning stove and stunning original cabinetry.

A corridor to the rear with flagstone flooring provides access to the kitchen, dining room and conservatory. The dining room has good proportions and lends itself well to formal dining. The kitchen has been cleverly designed to connect with the conservatory to create a very bright and sociable space overlooking the garden. The kitchen itself was designed and fitted by local designer Jonathan Randall and offers a range of good-quality solid wooden bespoke units with granite worksurfaces, a double Belfast sink and trademark larder unit. A feature has been made of the worksurface between the kitchen and conservatory providing both a convivial and curvaceous breakfast bar and all-important preparation space. A door to the rear of the kitchen leads to the cellar/workshop which is accessed via a stone staircase and has a convenient doorway to the front of the property.

The atrium-style conservatory is the heart of this home, a wonderfully light and comfortable space with lovely garden views, French doors onto the patio, and underfloor heating. A stable door leads into the good-size utility room which in turn leads to the cloakroom/WC, and has a door to the rear garden.

Upstairs there are three generous double bedrooms, a good-size single bedroom and a beautifully presented family bathroom with free-standing bath plus shower. The master suite is a fantastic space with a stunning view, fitted wardrobes and a feature fireplace, a walk-through dressing area with glazed fitted wardrobes, and a well-equipped en-suite shower room.

Outside the property has a front garden with pretty planting and specimen trees, a good-size driveway, and a garage with electric roller-door and overhead storage. Gated side access leads to a useful practical area of the garden which is cleverly screened from the main garden. This is a garden which has been designed with entertaining in mind, boasting a good-size patio adjoining the house with steps up to a large paved terrace and gazebo covered seating area, a generous level lawn, and a wonderful double-glazed garden room with power, light and its own log-burning stove.Uley, positioned in a stunning valley on the Cotswold escarpment boasts wonderful views to all sides; of particular note is the Uley Bury, an Iron Age hill fort sat above the village which commands views over the Severn Vale. Shadwell is a little-known hamlet on the outskirts of the village, well-regarded for its seclusion yet ease of access to the amenities of the village, alongside many magnificent walks.

Unlike many villages nowadays, Uley has a thriving community of young and old. There is a well-regarded primary school, a community run village shop with post office, dispensing doctors' surgery, local Public House, Brewery and the Prema Art Centre which is a fantastic venue for local events and also home to the popular Vestry Cafe.

There are many groups and organisations if you wish to get involved including the Church, the WI, The Uley Society and Toddler Group - to name but a few. Dursley, two miles away, is a small town with many amenities, while Stroud, Tetbury and Nailsworth each within eight miles have a more extensive range of facilities.
