Description

This four-bedroom detached home, built in 1964, presents a unique opportunity for renovation and investment in the desirable May Hill area of Gloucestershire. With its elevated position offering breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside and the Forest of Dean, this property combines both charm and potential. Having been lovingly maintained by a single family since its construction, it retains much of its original character, making it an excellent blank canvas for modernisation or extensions (subject to necessary permissions). The spacious interior features a welcoming entrance hall, a dual-aspect living room with an open fireplace, a kitchen and utility area, four ample bedrooms, a family bathroom, and additional WC. This adaptable layout supports various configurations to suit contemporary family needs or to create desirable open-plan living spaces. The exterior is equally appealing; set back from the lane with a private driveway providing ample parking, the mature gardens surround the home, featuring well-kept borders and seating areas designed to enjoy the stunning vistas. The highlight of the outdoor space is nearly 3 acres of paddock land perfect for equestrian activities or gardening enthusiasts seeking tranquility. A detached barn/stable block adds further value with possibilities for conversion into additional storage or workshop spaces. Located in May Hill—a community renowned for its scenic beauty—this property offers peace without sacrificing access to local amenities found in nearby villages such as Huntley and Longhope. Gloucester and Newent are just short drives away for broader shopping and dining options. This property represents an exceptional chance to acquire a residence nestled in nature with abundant potential for expansion or personalisation.
