MERRIN is a beautifully proportioned, late Georgian house with five bedrooms, commanding an unspoilt outlook across its own gardens towards wooded hillsides in the distance. Positioned immediately to the north of the main house is an exquisite single storey annexe with southerly aspect.
The property stands towards the south-eastern outskirts of the small Gloucestershire town of Mitcheldean, some sven miles south east of the market town of Ross-on-Wye and some 10 miles west of the city of Gloucester.
The house is listed grade II and believed to date from the last decade of the 1700s.
The current owners have carried out extensive upgrades and improvements, including re-roofing, always having particular regard to period features which are evident throughout the property.
All principal room dimensions are generous, and most enjoy the delightful easterly aspect across the secluded garden which is bounded to all sides by mature trees, shrubs and hedging.
There are many period fireplaces, and the principal living room is over 25' in length, as is the largest bedroom above.
Textures, tones and materials have been chosen exceptionally well for the ground floor annexe, converted from a former stable block, which provides one-bedroom accommodation, with bi-folding doors opening directly onto an attractive cobbled courtyard.
Despite the seclusion enjoyed within its grounds, the property is only a few minutes' walk from all the facilities of the town, close to the centre of which is a beautiful old stone church.
For those who enjoy rural pursuits, the Forest of Dean is all around, with the noted Severn Estuary not far away.
