DESCRIPTION. Dark Lane House is a substantial Grade II listed Cotswold stone
detached family house, the main house thought to have been built in the 1600’s, with
the shop added on 200 years ago to support the canal route as a General Stores. The
property is full of original character features including stone mullion windows,
exposed beams, exposed stone walls, original fireplaces and is fully gas centrally
heated. The main house has been well maintained and updated by the current owners,
and on the ground floor is an impressive open plan kitchen and family room with a
large stone fireplace and log burner. There is a good sized dining room off, also with a
fireplace. A sitting room/snug with patio doors leads out to the gardens, and a large
utility/boot room gives private access through a small office to the shop. On the first
floor are five double bedrooms, all with lovely views either over the garden and
Chalford or up Dark Lane, there is also a family bathroom and a Jack and Jill shower
room. The shop/showroom benefits from double windows either side of the front
entrance and an original Venetian window to the side elevation, plus another ground
floor showroom with cloakroom off and then a large upstairs showroom. Off the
upstairs room there is also an access through to the 40 ft attic room, which covers the
length of the main house, and this could easily be converted into further
accommodation subject to the necessary planning consents. To the outside of the
property there is a large two storey workshop/garage, again easily converted, a large
open garage with power and light, plenty of parking and electric gated access to the
road. The property has good sized gardens and a sitting area, with a large area of lawn
surrounded by an abundance of flower borders.
