Description
8 Canal Way is a hugely impressive detached home enjoying an enviable canal side position. The executive-style accommodation is set over two floors and equates to 2,765 sq. ft of stylish living space.
Entered by way of a spacious entrance hall, the pragmatic layout lends itself to an inclusive family lifestyle with light and airy rooms throughout. The sitting room has French doors opening to the side terrace, whilst the formal dining room affords the ideal place to host social gatherings. Arguably, the heart of the home is the outstanding kitchen / family room which has two sets of bi-folding doors opening to the superb sun terrace. The kitchen is fitted with a comprehensive range of units, integrated appliances, cabinetry and a striking central unit. In addition, there is a utility room, a well-appointed cloakroom and a useful study.
The first floor consists of five double bedrooms and an attractive family bathroom. The principal bedroom is notably spacious and is served by an en suite bathroom together with plentiful wardrobe space. Bedroom two also has the benefit of an en suite shower room with two sets of built in wardrobes.
The garden is an attractive feature of the property: principally laid to lawn bounded by a picket fence it has an impressive paved terrace which affords the ideal place to rest, relax or entertain. The drive provides parking for two vehicles and leads to the main entrance and double garage.
Location
Over is situated approximately one and a half miles north west of the Cathedral city of Gloucester. Over was once the site of a Roman vineyard, where a roman bridge connected the village to Alney Island, then an abbot's house and finally a civil war fort, the earthworks of which are still visible on the 11 1/2 acre field now jointly owned by the residents of Stauntons Hill.
Over sits above the River Severn providing an excellent viewing point for the Severn Bore. The Hereford and Worcester Canal, currently being restored, starts at Over Lock and runs for half a mile from Over Lock (not in use). Over Farmshop with local farm produce is a short walk away.
Gloucester itself also offers a wide range of amenities, Premiership rugby at Kingsholm, a renovated docks development and festivals such as the annual Gloucester History and Tall Ships festivals.
Over is approximately 8 miles from the regency town of Cheltenham. Cheltenham became a spa town in 1716, although its popularity flourished after King George III visited in 1788. As well as superb educational facilities the town is well known for the many literary and music festivals that it holds along with the cricket and national hunt festivals, including the Gold Cup meeting in the spring.
Communications from the property are excellent via the M5 and there are rail and bus stations in nearby Gloucester, providing links to London, Birmingham and Bristol.
Square Footage: 2,765 sq ft
