A characterful period cottage in the heart of the glorious Chew Valley with grounds of just under one acre including stables and a paddock.
Description
This charming historic home retains a wealth of character to include traditional beams and areas of exposed stonework and offers plenty of potential for purchasers to put their own stamp on the property , modernizing as deemed appropriate. The outstanding feature of this village home is the lovely ground in which it sits, they are surprisingly large and roll down through the valley with wonderful vantage points to sit and enjoy the blissfully calm and tranquil setting and to take in the glorious rural views through the valley toward Blagdon Lake. This has been a well-loved home with the gardens having been the heart of many social and family gatherings and it is now offered to the market with the benefit of no onward chain.
The property is approached via the small driveway with a car port for one car with a further garage located along the lane by the rear access gate and the stable area. The house can be accessed via a central porch to the rear but day to day, the owners entered through the entrance hall off the driveway which also serves as a utility area. This leads into the sitting room with a fireplace housing a wood burner with an original bread oven and with a large bay widow and door to the terrace and the first of two staircases to the upper floor. The 22’7 kitchen/breakfast room has a Belfast sink and a gas fired aga and a further integrated oven with hob. The lounge/dining room forms part of the two storey extension added to the far end of the property with the other staircase leading to the first floor beside the principal bedroom with an adjacent shower room with wc. There are three further bedrooms and the family bathroom, all with views to the rear.
The wonderful grounds feature a variety of mature trees and is a lovely haven for wildlife, well screened by both ornamental and native shrubs. An elevated area of lawn is the perfect place to take in the views through the valley, and the lower lawn meanders down the hillside beyond the stables to the enclosed paddock. The stables offer potential remodel and conversion for alternative use, subject to necessary planning approval and there is the possibility of creating a second driveway from the lane to the rear. The separate garage could do with a degree of upgrading and is located close to the end of the rear garden in the lane opposite.
