Epic Severn Estuary views and in the heart of sought after Abbots Leigh.
Location
Abbots Leigh is considered one of the most sought after villages, semi rural and enjoying all the benefits of country living, whilst being within a short commute of the fashionable Clifton Village. Bristol's commercial centre is approximately 5 miles distant and the M5 junction is 2 miles distant, making this an ideal commutable home. There are excellent rail links available from Bristol Temple Meads train station, whilst Bristol Airport has an extensive schedule of flights. For those who enjoy outdoor pursuits, there are many walks and bridal paths available from the nearby Ashton Court Estate and through Leigh Woods. Golf courses are in abundance and include Bristol and Clifton and Long Ashton. There are schools, state and independent, including St Katherine's for the former and Clifton College, Bristol Grammar and qeh, available from Ham Green and Clifton respectively.
Description
A beautifully appointed detached family house constructed from mellow stone elevations, with part rendering and under a pitched and tiled roof. Generously appointed and with a significant footprint, there are principal rooms with advantageous views, a significant kitchen/breakfast room and orangery combined, which is the social hub and six well appointed bedrooms, three served by en suite facilities and an additional family bathroom. The property offers multi-generational living opportunities with the potential for an annexe and there are also good live/work prospects with two offices on the ground floor. Gardens are beautifully tended and private with a two tier lawn enclosed by established hedgerows and borders and the elevated status from this escarpment provides wonderful views over the Severn Estuary and Welsh hills beyond. Of note is the swimming pool with terrace surrounding which enjoys protection from prevailing winds and a sunny orientation. The property is approached via secure electrically operated gates and a block paved in and out drive and there is an integrated double garage with two useful adjacent store rooms.
The property is approached by a covered porch with top lights whilst the front door is solid oak with full length windows surrounding. The reception hall is large and welcoming with an engineered wood floor and a rising staircase with under stairs store to first floor. There is a cloakroom and study with level access to the rear sun terrace and garden as well as an intimate snug which is currently being used as a further home office. There are two principal rooms; the drawing room enjoys dual aspect status with full length doors opening on to the garden and conservatory respectively. A fireplace acts as the focal point. The dining room also links to the aforementioned conservatory which is well constructed with K Glass and a wonderful vantage point to enjoy the garden and views. The kitchen/breakfast room is beautifully appointed with a tiled floor, oak units and granite work surfaces. There are various integrated appliances and the orangery provides occasional lounging and dining. A laundry and adjacent utility with the oil fired boiler are useful wet areas for pets with access to the front elevation. The galleried landing serves the six bedrooms, three of which are en suite and they have pleasant views. The principal bedroom has elevated views and a full length door to a Juliette balcony and a wonderful panorama. There is a dressing area with fitted cupboards and beyond an en suite bathroom with a comprehensive suite. The guest bedroom at the far end of the landing provides a degree of privacy and seclusion for those coming to stay and includes built in wardrobes and a further en suite facility. The ability to create a self contained annexe is easily achieved from this end of the house.
Outside to the front there is blocked paved gated entry and exit with an integrated garage, adjacent are two useful stores. Gardens are heavily planted with established plants, shrubs and trees. The rear garden is two tiered and includes a significant terrace and swimming pool
