Description
This most individual family home is set on the edge of this delightful North
Somerset village and is perfectly placed for swift access to Clevedon, Bristol
and the motorway network. This substantial property is believed to be circa
300 years old and one of the oldest houses in the village.
Occupying generous level grounds of over half an acre, the property is
approached via a secure gated entrance with a large gravel driveway which
crosses a bridge over a pretty rhyne to an extended forecourt parking area to
the front of the home. Without a doubt, this is a home of great individuality
and charm which will certainly appeal to those seeking a unique home with
striking original architecture. There is exposed stone walling, with
decorative curves and features archways. The grounds wrap around the house on
all sides which include a number of timber outbuildings which could be used as
workshops, a gym or a home office.
The house is approached via a substantial tiled entrance lobby with picture
windows to the side overlooking the lawned gardens and terrace. This in turn
opens to an inner hallway with a good size garden room which provides an
relaxed and informal entertaining area with double doors opening on to the
garden. This hallway extends to the rear of the kitchen and is currently used
as a small open study area with a good size utility beyond and a further
doorway to the rear of the house with plenty of storage for outdoor clothing
and footwear. The kitchen is central to the heart of the home with wonderful
brick arches to either side and a curved brick stairwell, and a further
archway leading via the staircase to the first floor. Within the kitchen is an
enormous granite breakfast bar with bespoke built in cupboards to the sides, a
Neff gas hob and aga stove set within the chimney breast. A large walk in
pantry has space for a tall larder fridge freezer and storage shelves also
houses the electricity meters and fuses. Running the full depth of the
property is an wonderful open plan sitting/dining room with a high vaulted
ceiling above an open Minstrels gallery. Windows above throwing a good deal of
light into the room and with Velux, able to look down on the living space from
above and perfect for those seeking an area to display the particularly tall
Christmas Tree!
The staircase that winds to the first floor has a further galleried area
looking down into the hallway, with glimpses of the garden and beyond. There
are five bedrooms arranged both spread over the first and mezzanine floors.
The principal bedroom has a high vaulted ceiling staircase leading up to an
extra large en - suite bathroom with a Whirlpool bath and separate shower. In
addition there is a enormous family bathroom with corner bath and Villeroy
Bock sanitaryware.
The well tended gardens are predominantly laid to a large expanse of lawn
interspersed with fruit trees and with the delightful rhyne that runs through
the front of the grounds being a special feature attracting a good deal of
local wildlife. Two stone bridges traverse the rhyne adding a good deal of
charm to the gardens which are of perfect size for family ball games and
safely enclosed for those with young children and pets.
