A haven for wildlife and home to stunning hilltop views, it\u2019s hard to believe this rural oasis is little more than half an hour from the M4. It needs some TLC, but if you\u2019re not afraid of a little graft, then you could be looking at your perfect home.\r\n\r\nOld Street Barn lies outside the Gloucestershire village of Lydney. It is 12 miles north of Chepstow and 18 miles south of Gloucester, located just off the A48 down a small lane for easy access to the M4 and M5. Central Bristol is just 45 minutes away by car.\r\n\r\nStunning natural landscapes, such as the Wye Valley and the Forest of Dean, surround this well-connected property. You can be in the Cotswolds AONB in as little as 40 minutes.\r\n\r\nRacing fans are well served by Cheltenham (48 minutes) and Chepstow (25 minutes) racecourses.\r\n\r\nIf you like your hunting, head out with the Cotswold Vale Farmers Hunt.\r\n\r\nLocal equestrian centres include Severnvale (18 minutes), Prestige Equestrian (30 minutes) and the David Broome Event Centre (30 minutes).\r\n\r\nOld Street Barn is on the market with <a href=\"https:\/\/fineandcountry.com\/property-sale\/3-bedroom-detached-house-for-sale-in-lydney-lensbrook\/3729141\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Fine &amp; Country<\/a> for a guide price of \u00a3875,000.
