The property is situated in a lovely and hidden setting along Backwell Hill
and although it is rural, it is not isolated. The property is approached
through an electric gate over an impressive sweeping drive with lawn and
mature trees on either side, creating a park - like setting. It was built in the
1970s and the present owners purchased Woodlands in 2005 when they made
alterations to the interior. It is extremely well maintained and is a
wonderful family home. In 2018, a new boiler was installed. In 2018, an
excellent bespoke kitchen by Wren was fitted, and the roof was replaced.
The accommodation is intelligently arranged, with an inner hall separating the
living accommodation from the bedroom wing. All rooms have a lovely view over
its private grounds. The open plan sitting/dining room, which was once two
rooms, has a stone fireplace fitted with a log burning stove and overlooks the
garden. Double doors open to the conservatory and further double doors open
into the kitchen/ breakfast room. The well designed kitchen with tiled floor,
which has an outlook to a backdrop of woodland, is extremely well fitted and
integrated appliances include two ovens, hob, extractor and tall refrigerator.
A stable door opens into the utility room.
The bedrooms are arranged off an inner hall. Both the principal bedroom and
guest suite each have a dressing area fitted with purpose - built solid wood
cupboards and drawers, and en - suite bath/shower room. There are three further
double bedrooms and a family bath/shower room.
Gardens and grounds
Woodlands is approached through an electrically operated farm gate which opens
onto an impressive long sweeping drive, with lawn on either side. The drive
continues past the property and leads to an area of parking behind, suitable
for a large number of vehicles.
The grounds are a delight. Either side of the drive is a large expanse of
level lawn interspersed with mature trees creating a park - like and hidden
setting. Trees include Paper Bark Maple, a magnificent Cedar, Silver Birch,
Ornamental Weeping Pear and Weeping Beech. There are many mature shrubs
including black stem Hydrangea, Camellias, Sorbus and Ceanothus. There are
many flowering plants including Aubrieta, well stocked flower beds and
borders, and the garden is planted with spring bulbs. Fruit trees include
Apple, Plum, and Crab Apple. There is a kitchen garden, a Hartley Botanic
greenhouse and a pond. In all about 1. 39 acres.
Outbuildings
Situated around the parking area is a superb and attractive architect designed
cedar clad workshop and integral double garage, with an overhang along the
front elevation. It has potential of converting into ancillary accommodation
or home office, subject to any necessary planning consents. Lying adjacent is
a further cedar clad building comprising a large enclosed 832 sq ft barn,
storeroom, open store, and outside WC.
