A charming and well-presented three bedroom barn conversion with gardens in an idyllic rural location within the Cotswold Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, just 7.5 miles north west of central Bath and 13 miles east of central Bristol.

“The brilliant location between Bath and Bristol on the edge of such a pretty village, as well as the modern presentation, but character feel, with wooden floorboards, vaulted ceilings and exposed beams of the house initially attracted us to this property. We have lived here for six years and have really enjoyed being in this idyllic location. There are six farm buildings at the end of a quiet lane built around the original stable yard. The buildings date from 1850 and the conversion was carried out in 2005.”

“The front door opens into an entrance hall with bespoke boot room storage. There are two large cupboards, one of which has room for a filing cabinet, printer, and all office equipment. The other houses a large chest tool kit and extra shelving. There is ample shelving for shoes and boots and coat hooks in between. The principal bedroom and en suite is to the right. The bedroom has old beams with fitted wardrobes and the en suite has a large Merlin shower cubicle, wc and basin, with cream cupboards and dark oak work top and distressed brown/cream tiles. To the left is the original snug which we have made a dining room where we have had 16 for dinner. Up three steps and through double doors to the left is the large sitting room, which has some of the ceiling with beams. There is a log burner, so it is such a cosy room. To the right is a cloakroom with a shower, and a utility room with boiler and room for washing machine, tumble drier and sink. The kitchen has marble worktops, range cooker, larder unit which goes across one wall, floor units with pull out drawers for easy access and a stable door out to the back garden. A large window overlooks the garden and fields. Upstairs are two double bedrooms; one has fitted oak wardrobes and views over the back garden and fields. Both bedrooms are vaulted with old beams. The upstairs bathroom has a white roll top bath, wc and basin.”

“The back garden wraps around the property on two sides. In May 2018 we had built a 45-metre stone wall to give the garden some more privacy and shelter and had the garden professionally redesigned and landscaped. There is a large lawned area, a raised eating area with plenty of room for entertaining and west facing summerhouse – the perfect spot for a sundowner! At the far end of the garden are double gates providing access to the lawn, and there is a wood store and tool shed. There is also a timber gate next to the patio area. The front garden is accessed via a timber gate with a path to the front door.”

“A short walk from the property is the popular village pub, The Cross House, which has just been renovated and is now very smart with a really good restaurant. The school bus stops outside to go to Bristol. The village hall holds a small market every two weeks. There are so many country walks and bridal paths as well as a horse livery yard just down the road for those equine lovers, and Badminton Horse Trials is only 10.3 miles away. We have been so fortunate to live in this peaceful location with all the benefits of country living, but only 7.5 miles to the centre of Georgian Bath and 5.1 miles to Junction 18 of M4 for trips to London.”
