Description

*** Development opportunity for cash buyers only ***

The property has been informally inspected by a structural engineer and it has been confirmed that there are signs of subsidence throughout the property which have most likely been caused by a combination of poor drainage by a nearby tree's root system. The property totals to 2225 sft and sits on a plot just over one acre in size within the popular village of Brookthorpe. Please contact Parkers Stroud office to arrange a viewing.

Brookthorpe village is conveniently located on the outskirts of Gloucester, just 3 miles from Junction 12 M5, with Cheltenham approximately 12 miles North and Bristol just 32 miles South. Stroud Train Station is 5.3 miles to the south offering direct trains to both Gloucester and Cheltenham. London Paddington can be reached direct within approximately 1 hour 31 minutes. Brookthorpe adjoins the open countryside of The Cotswolds, between Robinswood Hill (a country park with 250 acres of walks and nature trails) and Painswick Beacon which is one of the highest points in the Cotswolds - with fabulous far-reaching views. Brookthorpe is a charming village with its historic church, traditional pub and village hall. Its surroundings include great local walks such as the Cotswold Way and country lanes popular with both cyclists and horse-riding enthusiasts. The quaint, picturesque village of Painswick ‘The Queen of The Cotswolds’ - is circa 3.7 miles away and is a hive of activity - featuring shops, eateries, historical landmarks and a challenging 18-hole golf course! A short drive takes you to the busy town of Stroud, a market town that offers plenty of artisan cafes and restaurants to enjoy with family and friends, as well as supermarkets and other amenities.
