5 bed semi-detached house for sale

Chapel Street, Dursley GL11

Tucked quietly off Chapel Street, this five-bedroom home in Cam has been a cherished family residence for many years. The current owners raised their children here, caring for the property with attention and love. With the children now grown, they are ready to downsize, leaving a home ready for a new family to enjoy. Dating back over 400 years to the Jacobian period, it retains original features-exposed timber beams, brickwork, and slightly wonky walls and floors-that give it unique character.

The lounge combines warmth and presence, with a 5kW multi-fuel stove adding heat and atmosphere. The dining room opens onto the garden, creating a sociable hub for family life, while the newly fitted kitchen blends modern convenience with traditional charm. A recently opened-up utility and boot room adds flexible everyday space. Discreet Envirovent airflow runs throughout.

Upstairs, five generous bedrooms provide space for family, guests, or home working. The principal bedroom features a newly installed en-suite shower room and a large wardrobe with hanging rails and storage, complemented by a modern family shower room.

Two substantial outbuildings offer development potential (STPP), while the mature cottage-style garden is peaceful and wildlife-friendly. Solar panels, driveway parking, and proximity to Cam village amenities, schools, and transport links complete this exceptional family home

Two Substantial Outbuildings – Huge Potential (STPP)

The property also includes two large outbuildings, both offering significant development potential (subject to planning). The current owners previously held (now expired) planning consent to convert one into a separate dwelling-details available on request.

The second outbuilding is equally impressive, with ample space for conversion or repurposing. An original stone wall and return have been deliberately preserved, offering intriguing options for additional development-whether as multi-generational accommodation, holiday lets, or standalone homes

Agents Note i

The owners have retained the original rear boundary wall, including an area of the original return, which should benefit new owners wishing to extend using the existing infrastructure (stpc)

Agents Note ii

Please note, however, that the neighbouring house and shop have a restricted easement over the lane. Full details of this are available for inspection by arrangement with the agent

Agents Note iii

The house does have a flying freehold which is over the shop at the front.

The current owners have advised the agent that their is no charge applicable with the flying freehold
