<p><b>Council tax band:</b> C<br/></p><p>A former public house in the heart of old Dursley which has been the subject of many years of sympathetic restoration by its current owners. The property offers fantastic proportions, retained and restored period features, and high quality fittings, yet areas of the property remain which still require modernisation. The rear of the property offers the opportunity to reconfigure/replace the kitchen to create a large family room/kitchen leading onto the garden (subject to obtaining the necessary planning and building regulation consents).<br/><br/>A spendid solid front door provides access to an entrance hallway with a large understairs cupboard which also has the trap door allowing access to the cellar. The 32' drawing room is vast, allowing for two clearly defined living spaces if desired, each with incredible head-height and its own custom fitted fireplace. Beyond this room there is a hallway leading to the utility room and kitchen, and with stairs to the upper floors, there is a further doorway from the rear of the sitting room leading to the garden. The dual aspect country kitchen has a beautiful authentic style quarry tiled floor and a bespoke solid timber sink unit, the remainder of the kitchen is free-standing. The utility and cloakroom/WC complete with recently installed Worcester boiler are yet to be modernised but offer ample opportunity and space.<br/><br/>On the first floor there are two beautifully presented bedrooms each with replacement fireplaces and stripped floorboards, shuttered windows and stylish en-suite shower rooms. The shower rooms have been carefully designed with traditional sanitaryware authentic to the age of the building. From this landing there is access onto the flat roof which serves the kitchen and ancillary buildings and a further staircase which leads up to master bedroom. The master bedroom is a very generous space with windows to both front and rear, a stunning replacement fireplace, fitted wardrobes, exposed floorboards and a wonderful en-suite. The en-suite boasts authentic sanitaryware, pretty wall-lights, a slipper bath, and R Macintosh design tiling.<br/><br/>To the rear there are three ancillary store/workshop spaces in need of modernisation but offering endless opportunities, not least to integrate them into the kitchen/utility areas with the correct permissions. Beneath a large section of the drawing room sits a cellar with full head height. The garden is a delight, enclosed and very private. There is a patio area to the rear of the kitchen with stylish outdoor lighting, a generous level lawn, and a variety of established shrubs and trees around the periphery.<br/><br/>There is free parking available directly outside on street with some restrictions during working hours, Dursley's car park adjacent offers 23 hours free parking, and a few minutes further unrestricted parking is available on street.</p><p>While peaceful and secluded, Long Street is very well-positioned for convenient access to the amenities of both Dursley town and the surrounding countryside which can be accessed from adjacent country lanes, with renowned 'Cam Peak' within walking distance. The market town of Dursley located on the famous Cotswold Way offers an array of shops, supermarkets, restaurants & cafes along with a popular sports facility, Stinchcombe Hill Golf Club, a library, bus station, & the famous Old Spot Public House, in addition to Leaf & Ground Farm Shop/Cafe. These are all within a comfortable walk. <br/><br/>A choice of well-regarded primary schools & popular Rednock secondary school are conveniently positioned around town centre. For those needing to commute, Cam & Dursley train station just a 10 minute drive away provides commuter links to Bristol & Birmingham. Junctions of the M4 & M5 motorways are within relatively easy access, while Stroud (9 miles) & Kemble (16 miles) train stations offer convenient links to London.<br/><br/>Tenure: Freehold, Council Tax: Band C<br/>Services: We understand that all mains services are connected to the property.
