Inchbrook Hill, Inchbrook, GL5 5HD

Inchbrook House is an imposing Grade II Listed detached country house set at the top of a sweeping pillared drive in an elevated position at Inchbrook. This location, a mile from popular Nailsworth, allows for easy access to the shops and amenities of the town with country walks on the doorstep. Historic England states that the property was first listed in 1980. According to this entry, the original part of the house was built c.1750 and was then extended in 1861. The listing notes Tudor styling, arched windows, ornate carving and detailed dripstones and moulding as architectural features of particular merit. The property has been a happy, multi-generational home for the current owners for some 67 years. It is now in need of renovation, but offers a prospective buyer a unique opportunity to refurbish a substantial character home to their own taste and style, subject to relevant consent.

An entrance hall with grand Victorian stone staircase, cloakroom/WC, snug, formal 30’ drawing room, 17’ dining room, 17’ kitchen, greenhouse, utility room, pantry, 20’ games room (which was once the kitchen) and a 16’ studio that opens onto the rear courtyard are on the ground floor.

Original features have been retained throughout the property, with character and interest everywhere you look. A truly wonderful house – an appointment to view is essential.
