Magdala is a characterful and spacious Cotswolds home built in 1866 and filled with traditional charm and features. A unique home with a sense of history and personality found only in older houses. It is located in an area of Stroud which has a family-friendly feel and is much in demand but rarely available.

The shops, parks, library, stylish cafes and the award winning, weekly Stroud Farmer's market are all within a 5 minute walk. Also within walking distance is a mainline train station with a direct line to London. Several public and private schools to choose from make Stroud an ideal location.

In spite of its central location, Magdala is tucked away in a quiet street where all the houses are unique and exude Cotswold character. A perfect home that is in a prime location overlooking Stroud and yet close to countryside walks, offering the best of both worlds.

Magdala has an evergreen front garden with ample parking on the gravelled driveway. There is a South facing patio to one side of the front garden which is screened off by tall plants. A perfect spot for enjoying the morning sun.

Upon entering the property there is an immediate sense of character with the original wood flooring in the entrance hall which continues throughout the house. To the right of the hallway is a spacious room with a classic style fireplace which is currently used as a library and home-office. Further down the hallway and positioned to the front of the house is the generously sized sitting room centred around a wood burning stove. This room is flooded with natural light and has double doors leading onto the front patio.

Opposite the sitting room is the entrance to a separate dining room and kitchen. The sizeable dining room has a traditional fireplace, built in cupboards and overlooks the back garden.
The kitchen has recently been updated and has 20 years left on its guarantee. A quartz granite counter has all the space you could ever want and is lit with concealed lighting. The generous butler sink features a pull out tap and the Range Cooker with a stainless extractor makes this kitchen practical for any chef. The kitchen can comfortably accommodate a breakfast nook and is unmistakably the heart-of-the-house.

From the hallway, where there is access to the added bonus of a cellar, a solid wood staircase leads up to a skylit landing. On the first floor are four double bedrooms with period style fireplaces, and a single bedroom which is being used as a home office. The three bedrooms to the front of the house have views over Stroud which are especially magical at night.

The bathroom has a vintage roll-top bath and a decorative fireplace. There is a handy separate WC. Two large built in cupboards on the landing provide lots of storage space as does a huge, insulated loft which is accessed by a concealed pull down ladder.

The back garden surrounded by established plants and trees and many bird visitors has a ‘secret garden’ feel to it. It is fenced and private and is accessed from the kitchen via stable doors. The garden has been landscaped with family life and minimal upkeep in mind and includes a tool shed, a bicycle shed and a wood store. A patio area which gets the evening sun is perfect for relaxing and watching the sunset. There is also a very useful butler sink in the garden to wash muddy boots or puppy paws.

Magdala is not just bricks and mortar, it exudes warmth with beautiful, honey coloured wooden flooring throughout, traditional fireplaces in most rooms, high ceilings and the thick walls characteristic of the era this house was built. A well loved home which has been looked after with great care.

Magdala is located in an area of Stroud which has a family-friendly feel and is much in demand but rarely available. Within 5-minutes walking distance of the house are shops, parks, library, stylish cafes and the award winning, weekly Stroud Farmer’s. Also within walking distance is the mainline train station with a direct line to London.
Despite its central location, Magdala is tucked away in a quiet street where all the houses are unique and exude Cotswold character. A perfect home that is in a prime location overlooking Stroud and yet close to countryside walks, offering the best of both worlds.
Several reputable public and private schools to choose from with many ranking as the best performing schools in the South West, make Stroud an ideal location. Many families move to Stroud especially for the high standard of education provided by the local schools.
Stroud is a traditional market town, voted as one of the best places to live in the Cotswolds and is a hub of historical charm and modern conveniences. It offers a wide choice of supermarkets and a weekly award-winning Farmer’s Market which sells local produce including veggies, meat and the most scrumptious hand made doughnuts which sell out before noon (be warned!). The town is brimming with an eclectic mix of independent shops, cafes, and pubs serving the famous locally produced cider and beer.

For lovers of walking, Rodborough and Minchinhampton Commons, where you will meet the locals walking their dogs, are large swathes of grassland with panoramic views overlooking Stroud and the Severn Valley. There are many other walks, including a relaxing stroll along the newly renovated Stroud Canal and the more challenging walk up to Painswick Beacon.

For lovers of culture, the Stroud Subscription Rooms is a unique venue providing an innovative programme of music, dance, theatre, exhibitions and workshops. It is a vibrant public space that enables everyone to come together to form a community.

There are parks, golf courses, sports and garden centres as well as the entertaining Stroud Duck and Raft race and the popular Art and Fringe festival, making it a vibrant town with activities for all tastes.

Once settled in you will rarely need or want to leave Stroud, but when needs must the mainline station provides a direct train to London Paddington, and the M5 is within easy reach for commuting to both Bristol and The Midlands.
