Description
This most individual and substantial family farmhouse occupies a prime
position, perfectly placed with swift access to both Bath and Bristol and set
in extensive private grounds on the edge of open countryside. Key features
include the ability to generate significant and proven income stream from two
smart annexe dwellings which would also offer fine accommodation for those
seeking multi generation living and to accommodate an elderly relative whilst
maintaining their independence. The grounds that surround the property are
certainly another key factor which are predominantly level, screened by mature
hedgerows and native trees and extending to two good size paddocks, the
largest of which runs along the boundary of the property and would be perfect
for those with equestrian interests. There is gated access leading into the
stable yard area also enclosed with sturdy security gates and accessible
directly onto the driveway. The secure gated driveway for the main house is
certainly an impressive entrance statement with ornamental wrought iron gates
opening to a gravelled area and paved parking forecourt at the front of the
house. Neatly clipped lawns interspersed by attractive ornamental trees are an
attractive backdrop and provide plenty of space for play areas for children
and entertaining family and friends. A double garage joins the front of the
house with a passageway to the rear leading to kennels or further storage.
The house is in good order, approached via a central hallway leading through
to a generous and well appointed kitchen/family room with stainless steel
appliances and granite work surfaces and a lovely view across the rear
gardens. The house offers terrific flexibility, currently arranged as four
first floor bedrooms with two smartly appointed bathrooms and there is a snug
in addition to the large drawing room with wood burning stove, a home office
and bonus games/party room linking through to the garage at the far end of the
house. On the rear elevation of the house sits an exceptionally large
conservatory providing a wonderful link with the grounds and a lovely place to
sit and take in the views across the duck pond and gardens beyond.
The pair of annexed properties are mirror versions of each other and are
presented in pristine order with an open and well fitted kitchen and living
space leading through to a good size double bedroom with shower room and WC at
the far end. Both properties are centrally heated and have been designed for
easy and low maintenance.
Behind the annexe is a large storage barn with a secondary stone built barn
alongside the paddock. An area of the first paddock has been divided as a
productive kitchen garden with raised vegetable beds and is protected from
wildlife by way of a substantial post and rail fence. The paddock area extends
to a large expanse of lawn with a wonderful feature duckpond providing a
captivating focal point to this area behind the property with large areas of
gravelled terrace, decking and exceptionally large and attractive outdoor
barbeque and dining area. In all, a special home that offers a myriad of
facets and possibilities, whether simply as a large family mini estate or as
the opportunity to combine home living with the ability to generate revenue.
