Location

Standing in an elevated position with views toward the River Severn, this is an ideal country house and yet is located on the cusp of the city.

The regional shopping centre at Cribbs Causeway is a mere 2 miles distant, whilst junction 17 of the M5 is also 1 mile distant.

There are excellent arterial routes into Bristol's commercial centre, in addition to rail services available from Bristol Parkway train station approximately 6 miles distant.   
Schools are in abundance, state and independent, with nearby Almondsbury, Tockington and Thornbury offering a combination of both. Westbury on Trym and Clifton have a more extensive range of independents.

Description

Approached via an imposing and secure gated driveway with pavioured parking for a number of vehicles in addition to the detached double garage. Almondsbury village has proved enormously popular over the course of the last few years, not least for its close proximity to Bristol and the motorway network but also the thriving local community with a primary school, pubs, church and doctors surgery at its very heart.

This home was built in 2000 in a substantial level plot, sat high on the brow of the hill with the benefit of open vistas to the front and a sense of privacy and enclosure. With a random stone elevation the property has a simple and understated elegance with a feature glazed gable end flooding both the drawing room and high vaulted principal bedroom above with an abundance of natural sunlight.

A canopy entrance porch with solid oak front door opens to the welcoming reception hall with engineered oak flooring. Set immediately off this area is a generously proportioned kitchen, beautifully fitted with an extensive range of hand built ivory painted cabinets with granite work surfaces and a central island unit with breakfast bar. Appliances include the Falcon range cooker with induction hob, Siemens American style fridge freezer, a dishwasher and integrated Bosch microwave cooker. Set off the kitchen is a dedicated utility space with a second sink, further store units and space for a washer/dryer. A door from the utility leads into the integral double garage. A particularly fine feature of this home is the way in which the kitchen incorporates the open plan family and dining area set off to the side which creates a versatile and spacious area for entertaining large numbers of family and friends. To one end of this lovely room is a three quarter glazed garden area with door to the rear terrace, a semi vaulted ceiling with feature oak beam above. Double doors from this room mirror the pair that lead in to the drawing room. This is a truly delightful room with dual aspect windows overlooking the front and rear gardens and a recessed alcove with seating to one side with a Stovax Riva fire providing warmth and the focal point to the room. There is a ground floor cloakroom off the hallway and a useful under stairs storage cupboard.

At first floor there is a large galleried landing with views across the grounds, adjacent woodlands and beyond. The principal bedroom is a striking feature of the home with a high vaulted ceiling and the floor to ceiling window to the front from which to take in the wonderful open outlook. A walk through dressing area set off the bedroom leads via a small flight of stairs to a mezzanine office area with views on a clear day across the Severn Estuary to the Welsh hillside beyond. The very smart en suite bathroom features limestone wall and floor tiling with dual ended bath, twin basins set in to a vanity unit and a dual fuel chrome towel rail. Two other bedrooms are both doubles with one leading to a bonus "chill out" room which is ideal for reading, relaxation and study. From the landing, a second flight of stairs leads via eaves storage areas to a bright twin bedroom with glazed door at the far end to a walk in wet room mirroring the same quality as the others, all deigned and fitted by the award winning Ripples Bathrooms. The main family bathroom is of a particularly good size with a step up to a raised steel and enamel bath and walk in over sized shower area also with rain head shower and body jets.

The gardens are laid out for easy maintenance. To the front with a wide expansive of lawn with bordering mixed rose and flowering beds. The high stone walling providing security and privacy. To the rear is a further enclosed lawned garden with a large terrace for alfresco dining.
