Description
The Paddock is situated in a rural yet accessible position, with views over its land and beyond over unspoilt countryside to woodland. It is situated at the end of a private approach with direct access, via single track roads, to hacking gems including Ashton Park and the National Trust's Tyntesfield Estate. It is unusual for a property of this quality with excellent equestrian facilities and land to come to the market so close to Bristol.

The present owners purchased The Paddock in 1995 and have since extended and modernised
the cottage, carefully combining the atmosphere of the original cottage with the contemporary interior as seen today. The rooms are light and of good ceiling height and there are lovely unspoilt country views across to woodland. Around the house are wood and stone floors and white painted internal tongue and groove doors with iron latch furniture. The interior is extremely well presented and fashionably decorated and the outbuildings, stables and grounds are well maintained.

The excellent bespoke kitchen/breakfast room has bi-fold doors opening to a paved terrace and garden. The sitting room which is fitted with a log burning fire and the dining room, both open out to the garden. The snug and family room are arranged off the kitchen/breakfast room and the study overlooks the entrance drive with lovely views.

On the first floor, the principal bedroom has an en suite shower room. There are four further bedrooms, one with en suite shower room and a family bath/shower room. Again, there are country views in all directions.

The Paddock is approached over a long private road (owned by The Paddock) which gives access to an electrically operated farm gate and entrance drive. The drive continues to a substantially built detached double garage block with workshop, outside w.c and two adjoining stables. There is a generous parking area. The attractive formal gardens lie behind the house facing south with a west outlook. The views are glorious. Along the south and west elevation is a split level raised paved terrace ideal for entertaining. A wisteria adorns the south elevation. The garden has an expanse of level lawn interspersed with trees including apple and willow, and inset beds. The deep borders are well stocked with a variety of plants, ornamental shrubs and roses.

The drive continues to the stable yard with a Harlow timber stable block, set against a backdrop of woodland, comprising four stables, hay store and kitchen/tack room. Beside, is a wash down area and horse walker. Immediately behind the stable block is a timber open fronted garden machinery store. Beyond the stable block lying to the north west, within a paddock, is a timber open fronted shelter with overhang, for four horses. Lying to the north of the drive, opposite the property, is an excellent all weather 40m x 24m riding arena.

The land is divided into several paddocks, with access to water troughs, and separated by post and rail fencing. The land adjoins open farmland and there is a wonderful view across to woodland.

All the property extends to 11.86 acres.
