7 bedroom detached house for sale

A most impressive Victorian detached house in fine order throughout with delightful gardens and generous garaging

Description

Approached via secure electric gates providing safe enclosure for the whole grounds, this wonderful period home is set in a greatly sought after address in prime Upper Clevedon. During the course of their ownership, the current sellers have invested a great deal of time and money in creating a home fit for 21st century living with light modern touches throughout and presented in exceptionally good order. The relatively new addition of the outer hallway and deep tandem garage certainly gives the property an edge over many other Victorian homes in this area and now it offers parking for 7/8 cars with above average storage and workshop space or perhaps even scope for a gym set to the rear.

Lovely oak flooring from the outer hallway leads into a welcoming inner hall with a high ceiling which is a notable feature of the whole of the property. From the hall, a door leads directly through into the garage with a smart ground floor cloakroom to one side. A useful utility room is set to the far end of the hallway with a Belfast sink, space for washing appliances and a cupboard housing the Megaflow hot water tank. Two beautiful and elegant reception rooms lead off the hallway, firstly a magnificent dining room with a marble fireplace and cornice ceiling and beyond this an extremely restful and relaxed drawing room, also with a fireplace and sash bay windows overlooking the front gardens. All of the windows in the property have been replaced with efficient double glazed timber units. A very large kitchen has been relocated by the current owners to the central part of the property and this now forms a superb informal family hub with an array built in storage cabinets to one end, granite work surfaces, built in Bosch ovens, a integrated microwave and induction hob. The breakfast area at the end of this wide room is a lovely place to sit and take in the views of the long and level garden to the rear. A pair of glazed doors open to more intimate and cosy snug which in turn opens to a partially glazed conservatory with bifold doors that could be opened up fully and provide useful sheltered when outdoor entertaining.

There are four double bedrooms on the first floor, one with en suite cloakroom and an impressive family bathroom, beautifully tiled and with modern Roca sanitaryware. Stairs continue to a half landing with space for seating and on the top floor there are three further bedrooms and a second bathroom. Currently one of these bedrooms is used as a home office and provides the perfect space for those that now work from home.

The rear garden is walled on all sides and laid predominantly to a large and level expanse of lawn interspersed with fruit trees, conifers and colourful herbaceous flower borders. A good size stone terrace set off the garden room and to the rear of the garage is a substantial timber cabin for the storage of garden paraphernalia.

Location

From this quiet and sought after part of Upper Clevedon most of what this popular town has has to offer is swiftly accessible. The seafront and lovely coastal pathway have much appeal, there is a choice of good supermarkets, independent stores and both primary school and Clevedon School, part of Futura Learning Partnership which was rated as outstanding by Ofsted. Many choose Clevedon because of its commuter links, the M5 (Junction 20 1.25 miles) serving the South West and Midlands, excellent rail services available from Yatton train station including direct trains to London Paddington and national, European and long haul flights from Bristol Airport (7.54 miles).
