Description
Description
Stanthill House offers the best of both townhouse and countryside.
Stanthill House is a landmark property a short walk from the heart of Dursley, which offers a magnificent sense of grandeur and history. The house was built in 1830 and is a fabulous example of a Georgian townhouse, with an attractive double-fronted design constructed from Bath limestone.
While the house has been extensively updated and sympathetically restored to a very high standard, much of its original character remains including sash windows, the original wooden shutters, fireplaces, wood and stone floors and extensive cabinetry.
The grand proportions of the house offer a good amount of versatility to the accommodation. In addition to the large main house, the wing has been further extended to offer an additional attached and independent annex which can either be included in the main footprint of the house or used as a separate self-contained home for grandparents, older children, staff or rental income.
The décor is beautifully presented throughout in a modern interpretation of country style, utilising decorative tiles, heritage paint colours and the house’s original character features to great effect. The renovations of the annex (known as The Courtyard) in 2019 and the main house in 2020 were completed to a very high standard including upgrades of all plumbing, electrics and heating (with a zoned smart heating system and advanced water system for power showers and high usage hot water). The annex has its own heating, electrics and plumbing for ease of independent use if required.
The accommodation, which extends to almost 6,900 sq ft, is arranged over three floors, including a large cellar with several different rooms for storage and original wine cellar.
The ground floor of the main house affords a great deal of space for entertaining, including three generous reception rooms across the front of the house, a stunning open plan kitchen, boot room, large utility room, cloakroom with WC and a formal dining room.
To the rear of the house, accessed internally via the dining room and with its own beautiful entrance via the private walled courtyard, there is a separate kitchen and utility room, sitting room with doors onto the courtyard, shower room and library, which could be used as the annexe or alternatively combined with the main house to create further reception rooms or guest accommodation.
Upstairs there are eight double bedrooms comprising 6 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms in the main house and 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms in the annex.
Outside
Stanthill House is set in a corner position, creating a large plot with plenty of space at the front and rear. The house is approached over a large, private gravel driveway, which offers ample off-street parking for a good number of cars, and with electric charging.
The large rear gardens are walled and feel very private, with no overlooking neighbours and catch the sun in the different areas all day. The expansive lawn is level and attractively landscaped with well-stocked borders around the perimeter, featuring a variety of shrubs, bedding plants and herbs. Towards the rear there is a kitchen garden with a greenhouse, and further large area including a garden shed screened by traditional yew hedging. The further private walled courtyard (for external access to the annex) offers another outbuilding and the potting shed (both with electric and lighting).
A generous gravel terrace overlooked by the kitchen is a fabulous sun trap and provides a wonderful space for entertaining in the summer months and a beautiful oak framed log store.
