Maryhill offers the rare opportunity to purchase a substantial and impressive family home on the outskirts of the sought after village of Painswick. Both the location and valley views offered by this spectacular home, are truly exceptional. As you sweep up the long drive and turn the corner to the rear access, you are immediately struck by the substantial presence of the house. Opening into a reception hall with coat cupboard off and leading to a spacious inner hall and cloakroom, the sense of space that runs throughout the home, is immediately apparent. The property has magnificent large windows throughout, creating a wonderfully light home. The kitchen is fitted with cream units and an electric Aga and offers superb valley views. A lovely bright room with ample space for a large table and separate seating area, make this an ideal space for family living. Access to the garden and a patio area leads directly from the kitchen, perfect for alfresco dining and entertaining friends. A good sized home office is positioned to the rear of the kitchen. The main drawing room is a beautifully elegant space, with pretty stone fireplace and dual aspect large windows offering stunning views. A separate family room provides a useful second reception room.

The first floor is accessed via an impressive oak staircase with double height feature window. The principal suite has lovely valley views plus an en-suite bathroom. There are four further bedrooms, one with en-suite WC and sink as well as a family bathroom and separate shower room. The four front facing bedrooms all benefit from magnificent valley views and the fifth rear facing bedroom has a pretty aspect overlooking woodland. Access to a large boarded attic with natural light from a good sized window, leads off the landing, offering an ideal space for conversion; further attic space is also available through a small access door.

Maryhill's grounds are an absolute delight. Set largely to the front and side of the property, the lawns are gently sloping with mature trees and borders and long sweeping drive. A small orchard is set to the side of the house, with gated access to woodland, The Cotswold Way and Painswick Beacon, offering a magical haven and an idyllic child's 'secret garden.' There are several store rooms and outbuildings, as well as two patio seating areas, offering a choice of idyllic spots for morning coffee or evening drinks. There is ample parking.

LOCATION
Maryhill's location is one of its greatest assets. Within five minutes drive of the sought after village of Painswick, this impressive home sits in an enviably large plot of circa 2.5 acres, with fabulous far reaching valley views. Everything about this home and its location, exudes space. Frequently referred to as the Queen of the Cotswolds, Painswick has a tremendous sense of community spirit and many local amenities including a popular primary school, two pubs, a bijou hotel and a small local restaurant, as well as two popular cafes and an arts shop. There is also a well-stocked village shop, chemist and even a highly acclaimed fabric shop. One of the key draws to the area is the excellent choice of schools, with sought after grammar schools in Stroud, Gloucester and Cheltenham, as well as a good choice of schools in the private sector, in nearby Cheltenham and also Beaudesert Park in Minchinhampton and Wycliffe in Stonehouse. The village is popular with tourists and is well known for the beautiful Rococco Gardens and also its Beacon, a huge expanse of common-land offering a wonderful source of walks and far reaching views to the Malvern Hills and also host to a popular golf course.

Well placed for commuting, Maryhill is a 15 minute drive from Cheltenham, well- known for its many festivals, theatre, racing and excellent shopping. Painswick is circa 90 minutes to London by train, from nearby Stroud mainline station. The M5 motorway is also within easy reach, for commuting to Bristol and the Midlands.

DIRECTIONS
The property is most easily located by leaving our Painswick office on the A46 in the direction of Cheltenham. Continue out of the village passing the golf course on your left and as the road straightens out you will see a number of properties on your left and Maryhill is the last house on the left, just before the The Royal William public house.
