Belvedere Mews, Chalford, Stroud GL6

18 Belvedere Mews is a penthouse apartment in a handsome Grade II Listed Ashlar fronted period house set at the head of this small water-side cul de sac at ever popular Chalford. This location enjoys a friendly, inclusive local community, with a community run store at the bottom of Chalford High Street and canal and river-side walks on the doorstep. The property was originally built in 1789 as an imposing mill owner’s residence and was converted into six apartments some forty years ago. 18 Belvedere Mews is the largest apartment in the building, with spacious, light filled accommodation arranged over two floors.

An entrance hall, 16’ sitting room, kitchen, 14’ bedroom and bathroom are on the first floor, with an 18’ principal bedroom with en suite shower room with dressing area above. The property retains many features synonymous with Georgian vernacular architecture, including high ceilings and sash multi pane windows and is available with no onward chain. An appointment to view is highly recommended.

The interior is complemented by allocated parking and the use of lovely gardens that border the river. Belvedere House enjoys well kept landscaped gardens with a level lawn bordering the river and extending along the side of the property behind the parking area. This space also enjoys river frontage and the grounds are stocked with a variety of shrubs and established trees - a truly lovely place to sit and relax with the sound of water. There is allocated parking for two cars.
