1970s home transformed into Grand Designs haven in Stroud

A true hidden gem in Stroud, this Nailsworth property will set you back a cool £1.25 million, but the hot tub, underfloor heating and woodburning stove should help the seasonal transition from summer to autumn, making it the perfect SoGlos property of the month for September.

Wooden panelling, floor-to-ceiling windows and sleek black marble flooring have all helped to take this property from the 70s into the 21st century.

Originally built in the 1970s, September's incredible six-bedroom, three-bathroom property was fully renovated in 2020 into a contemporary home that wouldn't look out of place in an episode of Grand Designs.

SoGlos takes a closer look at what prospective owners can enjoy once contracts have been exchanged...

The lowdown

Priced at £1,250,000, the 3000 sq ft property is located on Stroud Road in Nailsworth and enjoys total privacy within high fencing and shrubbery.

Spread across three floors, there's six bedrooms, a games room, a utility room, cloakrooms and more — all sleekly designed with top-class amenities for a living experience that's as slick as the home's facade.

Exterior highlights

The exterior of the home casts a striking figure as the property is approached from a private driveway, with two large car ports at the front and rear of the property.

Natural light spills in through the floor-to-ceiling windows, while the wooden panelling that envelops the outside of the home creates a feel of modernity as well as contributes to its sustainability.

Though the garden is on the smaller size, with only a small square patch of lawn, the entertaining space makes up for it, with a large decking area and a spacious balcony accessible from the upstairs bedroom, ideally set up for family get togethers and summer evenings spent with friends.

Interior highlights

The style continues within the property as soon as you step on to the black marble flooring, which will cool toes in the summer and warm them in the winter thanks to underfloor heating.

Ground floor highlights also include a contemporary woodburning stove, a large open-plan kitchen, a dining room and a living room, all designed with elegance and minimalism in mind.

The principle bedroom on the first floor also features impressive additions such as its own en-suite and dressing room, complete with a luxurious freestanding bath tub and waterfall shower — aaaaand relax...
