This impressive five-bedroom semi-detached home is located in the desirable village of Edge End, offering breath-taking panoramic views across open fields and rolling countryside. Set on a generous plot, the property benefits from extensive parking, a detached double garage, and a range of additional outbuildings—perfect for storage, hobbies, or potential development.
Edge End is a charming hamlet just northwest of Coleford in Gloucestershire, nestled on the edge of the Forest of Dean. Known for its serene atmosphere, it offers residents and visitors beautiful woodland surroundings, scenic walks, and expansive views that stretch to the Brecon Beacons on clear days. While there are no shops or pubs in Edge End itself, nearby Coleford provides essential amenities, including shops, cafes, and schools.
As you step through the front door, you’re welcomed into a broad, light-filled hallway that instantly conveys the home’s generous proportions. There’s space here for a console table, shoe bench or coat stand, and the wide corridor sets the tone for the rest of the house—bright, functional, and filled with potential. The hallway connects effortlessly to the main living areas and extends into the secondary wing of the house, giving the ground floor a unique sense of flow and adaptability.
To the right, the main living room is a wonderfully spacious and inviting area. A large picture window floods the room with natural light, enhancing the already impressive proportions. The central fireplace offers a warm, familiar anchor to the space, making it a natural gathering point in the evenings. Whether you envision cosy family movie nights, a quiet reading corner, or simply a room where everyone can spread out and relax, this room adapts to your lifestyle with ease. Its width allows for flexible furniture arrangements, creating distinct zones for adults and children alike.
Connected via double doors or through the hallway, the rear dining room is a charming, separate space ideal for entertaining or hosting family meals. Tucked away from the bustle of the kitchen, it lends itself beautifully to special occasions—a candlelit dinner, a Sunday roast, or a quiet coffee in the morning light streaming in from the garden. The peaceful positioning at the back of the house also makes this room a great candidate for a home office, music room or library, depending on your needs.
At the heart of the home sits a practical, well-maintained kitchen, a U-shape kitchen offers generous countertop space and ample storage across multiple base and wall cabinets. A large front facing window offers a lovely garden view, and there’s a natural connection to the dining area, creating an open, sociable feel that works particularly well for families or those who love to cook while still feeling connected to others. The kitchen offers the bones of a great space, and could be easily reimagined with a contemporary layout or even extended further, subject to planning.
Directly off the kitchen and overlooking the rear garden, the relaxed second living space offers a perfect informal lounge or playroom. With another fireplace creating a cosy centrepiece and views of the garden beyond, it’s easy to imagine children playing here after school while dinner simmers nearby, or curling up with a book and a view of the changing seasons. It’s a multifunctional, adaptable space that brings a sense of ease and comfort to everyday living.
From this area, a hallway leads to a generous utility room and ground-floor WC—an ideal practical zone that keeps laundry and muddy boots out of the main living areas. With plumbing for washing machines, additional storage, and even room for a freezer or dog bed, this section of the home is all about making busy life that little bit easier. There’s also a second side entrance here—perfect for gardeners, dog walkers, or teenagers coming in from school—reinforcing the home’s smart, family-focused layout.
Upstairs, a wide landing connects all five bedrooms and the main family bathroom. The thoughtful layout creates two separate wings, which is especially valuable for creating peaceful guest accommodation, a quiet home office area, or giving teenagers their own space away from younger children.
The largest bedroom sits at the front corner and spans over 4.3 metres in width. This room offers the luxurious feel of a true principal suite, with enough space for a king-sized bed, freestanding furniture, and even a dressing table or reading nook. A wide window frames leafy views, and the proportions mean you’ll never feel short on space—whether you’re starting the day with sunrise light or winding down in a calming, uncluttered retreat.
Directly opposite, a second double room enjoys a peaceful rear aspect with a lovely garden outlook. Its calm, private position makes it ideal as a guest room or a teenager’s sanctuary, and there’s ample room for wardrobes, a desk, or even a small seating area. With the gentle light and quiet ambience, it’s easy to imagine this as a creative studio or restful home office too.
Another well-sized double bedroom overlooks the front garden and benefits from excellent natural light. With its clean lines and versatile footprint, it could serve as a child’s bedroom, twin room, or even a shared workspace. The views provide a constant connection to the outdoors—perfect for anyone who enjoys a tranquil atmosphere to focus or relax in.
At the front of the home, a fourth bedroom mirrors the others in size and layout, and would make an ideal nursery, games room, or additional guest bedroom. With a bright, elevated aspect over the rear garden, it feels open and airy throughout the day, and offers excellent flexibility for changing family needs.
The fifth bedroom, currently used as a single, is a brilliant bonus space that could be used as a dressing room, private home office, or cosy nursery. If you work from home or need a quiet place for study, it’s perfectly tucked away from the main living areas and could be fitted out with bespoke shelving or built-in cabinetry to maximise its potential.
Serving all bedrooms, the main bathroom is well-sized and practical, with a full-length bathtub, WC, hand basin and shower cubicle, along with storage cupboard. It’s ready to use as is, but also offers scope for reimagining—there’s enough space to install a separate walk-in shower or to incorporate stylish vanity storage and modern tiling. Whatever your vision, the fundamentals are already in place.
Outside- At the rear of the property, a gated driveway with ample off-street parking, leading to a generously sized detached double garage. Measuring over six metres in both width and depth, this is far more than just a place to store the car—it’s the workshop, hobby space, or home gym, with scope for conversion to a studio, office or annexe accommodation (subject to consent). Wrapping around the rear and side of the property, the garden offers a mix of lawn, established borders, and patio space. There’s room here for children to play, pets to roam, or for weekend entertaining with family and friends. The patio is a suntrap spot for summer barbecues or morning coffee. The gardens run to the side and front.
