LOCATION. Roadway Farm has a rustic setting on the west facing slopes of the Cotswold escarpment with glorious westerly views across the Severn Vale towards Wales, at the head of a no-through country lane surrounded by a patchwork of small fields interspersed with thick hedgerows. Quiet and peaceful it is however within 10 minutes drive not only of a mainline train station with regular services into London Paddington (scheduled from 91 minutes) but the M5 motorway at Junction 12 Gloucester. Accordingly, Roadway Farm is in an ideal location for long distance commuters as well as being convenient for some excellent schools in both the state and private sectors including Stroud High and Marling, Wycliffe College, Beaudesert Park and the Kings School at Gloucester. The local town of Stonehouse has good facilities and nearby Stroud has Waitrose, Sainsbury s and Tesco supermarkets and is a regional centre for the Arts. The essence of Roadway Farm's location however remains the ability to ride or walk directly from it into unspoilt countryside, with excellent off road outriding directly onto the Cotswold Way to feel secluded but not isolated and the pleasure of living in a forgotten corner of the Cotswolds where time could have stood still. Motorway M5 J12 Stonehouse - 3 miles, Gloucester Railway Station - 9 miles, Stonehouse Railway Station - 3 miles, Cheltenham (central) - 16 miles, Bristol Bristol Airport BS48 3DY - approx. 40 miles. Distances are approximate. 5
DESCRIPTION. Roadway Farm is an exceptional property with much to offer a family. It has all the different elements, a lovely old farmhouse with panoramic westerly views across the Severn towards Wales, a detached cottage, traditional and purpose built outbuildings and land. Retaining many period features, the current owner has also renovated the nearby cottage as well as adding garaging, and building a really useful and secure barn. Behind the farmhouse's attractive façade the accommodation is spread over three floors and comprises in principal three reception rooms, four or five good bedrooms and two bathrooms, cellar and a three car garage. Coach House Cottage and the old dairy and stables flank the original farmyard, while offset across the delightful natural garden is a steel framed and close boarded barn with its own vehicular access. This has 3m high doors and measures 10m x 10m. Behind this is the well kept meadow, sheltered by mature trees, which grows an excellent hay crop. In all the property is about 5 acres.
