Lakeside, South Cerney GL7 5XE

Lakeside is a small development of only 19 detached houses built in the early 1990's and is tucked away around the back of Robert Franklin Way, providing it with shelter from the passing traffic of the rest of the village. This property has been lived in by the current owners since it was built and it is clear that they have been fantastic custodians who are now ready to pass on to the next fortunate owner.

As you approach from the road, there is a gravelled driveway with comfortable space for two or three cars side by side and access to the garage which has been partitioned to create a storage room at the front and hobby room at the back. This could quite easily be reversed should one require a full-size garage. Undercover of the front porch area you enter through to a very welcoming entrance hall giving you a vista up the stairs and through to the double doors of the wonderful living room. On that note, the living room is dual aspect with a view of evergreen trees to the front and double doors leading out to the rear garden. There is a chimney breast with Gazco Conventional Flue Gas Fire.

Back through the hallway, there is a lovely dining room with ample space for an eight-seat table and a view of the rear garden through another set of double doors. There is another family room/home office and a downstairs WC before you reach the kitchen, which is a great size for cooking and casual dining at the breakfast bar. It is fitted with gas hob, double electric oven, fridge/freezer, dishwasher and plenty of cupboard space. There is a window looking out to the front with a door leading to the side access of the house. Pass through the kitchen and you reach the hobby room, created from the rear portion of the garage, which is a fantastic workshop to tinker away in.

Head up the stairs, passing the charming triangular bay window, and you will find four bedrooms and two bathrooms. The master bedroom suite has plenty of space for a kingsize bed, a bank of fitted wardrobe, views of the garden and a large ensuite shower room. Bedroom Two, a double, has a wonderful view of the treeline across the road whilst bedroom three is another double with views of the garden. The fourth bedroom is a single whilst the family bathroom is a terrific size with a relaxing corner bath.

Outside, the west facing garden is a real suntrap and is designed to be on the lower end of the maintenance scale whilst retaining a wealth of charm and comfort. The decking area is a great spot for outdoor dining whilst there is a storage shed down one side of the house and access to the front around the other.

Lakeside is tucked away in the immensely popular Cotswold village of South Cerney. The village has a host of fantastic local amenities including three pubs, The Braai House coffee shop/deli/post office an Indian restaurant, a fish & chip shop, a chemist, a doctor surgery, a village hall, two churches, Anne Edwards primary school, pre-school playgroup, a Premier and a Co-Op. That's in addition to being in the heart of the Cotswold Water Park with countless lakes for all varieties of water sports with water skiing and waterside dining at the Lakeside Brasserie. Just at the top of the road is a great playground for children and access to some fantastic walks around the village and surrounding areas.
