Property description

THE PROPERTY Number 32 Close Gardens is a maturing reconstituted Cotswold stone semi-detached house in this most sought after of cul-de-sacs within a short level walking distance past the library and along a short footpath into the town centre.



The accommodation consists briefly of entrance hall into a through lounge/dining room with a natural stone feature fireplace and double glazed patio doors onto the south facing rear garden. Off this room is a door into an inner hall with a staircase to the landing having a half landing with a window to the side, off this is a lobby and a cloakroom with a modern white suite with low level WC and wash hand basin. The refitted kitchen also overlooks the rear garden and has a smart range of cream Shaker style units comprising base cupboards and drawers together with an integrated stainless steel oven, ceramic hob and cooker hood, integrated dishwasher and a large Indesit fridge/freezer will be included in the sale. At first floor level bedroom one and three are at the front, bedroom two is at the back along with the bathroom which has had a recent renovation project to provide a new white suite with a power shower over the bath. The original integral garage has been shortened somewhat to accommodate the ground floor cloakroom so it is now more of a workshop/bike store. However, the building line of neighbouring properties is ahead of number 32 so we would not suggest any difficulty in lengthening the garage to accommodate a car once again if preferred.



The property has the benefit of gas fired radiator central heating with a new boiler understood to have been fitted in 2011. All the windows are UPVc double glazed items, and all fitted carpets and window blinds will be included in the sale.



The gardens are laid to lawn to the front and rear with a tarmacadam drive capable of taking two or three cars at the front, and the rear garden is of a manageable size for most (approximately 45' x 39') which enjoys a very pleasant south facing aspect and is not overlooked.



Properties in this immediate area tend to sell extremely readily so an early appointment to view is strongly recommended.

Alternatively on foot walk down Long Street and take the pathway in between the Close Hotel and the Highgrove gift shop and walk past the library and number 32 will be seen in the cul-de-sac.
