DESCRIPTION A wonderful opportunity to purchase a spacious three bedroomed bungalow occupying a discrete and private position off Front Street in Churchill.

'Oak Lodge' is a truly unique single storey property nestled at the end of a quiet lane and with a fabulous open outlook to the front over adjoining fields. Offering exceptional potential, the property is perfectly suited to those looking to retire to a quiet and peaceful corner of the countryside or indeed a young family looking to be within easy walking distance to the excellent local schools.

Approached via a share lane that then continues into your own spacious driveway, there is ample room to park numerous vehicles with plenty of space to turn and access to your own large garage. The outlook to the right is over a pretty paddock and the property's well planted front garden has numerous mature trees and plants, along with two garden sheds and Gazebo.

Access to the house is gained via an attractive solid Oak front door with glass panels to either side that continues to a light and airy hallway with Oak flooring and off which all the rooms are accessed. To the left lies the large family sized kitchen/breakfast room which is bathed in light from its two well positioned Velux windows in its vaulted ceiling and a picture window looking out over the front garden. The kitchen is fitted with a substantial range of oak shaker styled units with a smart granite countertop. There is a provision for white goods along with an eye level double oven with halogen hob, integrated dishwasher, and space for a large American style Fridge/Freezer. There is more than enough space for a breakfast table and there is a door to the front which provides internal access to the large garage and French doors to the rear which lead through to the living room.

Measuring an impressive 25' in length, the living room is a real feature of the house with windows to three aspects. A blank canvas, there is scope to modernise the room and perhaps add a feature fireplace/wood burner if desired, along with the potential to add bi-folds doors to the rear wall to add a more contemporary feel to the accommodation.

The three bedrooms are complemented by two bathrooms with the master bedroom featuring a walk-in shower room and generous fitted cupboards, bedroom two is another double room with a lovely west facing aspect, whilst bedroom three is currently utilised as a single bedroom.

Completing the internal accommodation is the family bathroom which is neatly fitted with a white modern suite and has useful airing cupboard. There is also another further incredibly handy storage cupboard in the hallway.

Outside, Oak Lodge is blessed with pretty gardens to both the front and rear with ample space to the side. The rear garden is a rich Oasis of plants, trees and ponds, with hidden footpaths that allow you to enjoy the skilfully arranged mix of flora and fauna, there is a luxury quality greenhouse to grow vegetables and fruits if desired, a substantial garden shed with electrical power points, whilst the front garden has again been well thought out and planted to allow you to enjoy sunshine and a different aspect at different times of the day.

The property is brought to the market with the added benefit of no onward chain.
 

SITUATION Churchill is a popular commuter village situated in the beautiful North Somerset countryside, which offers a range of village facilities which include a shop, pubs, churches, modern sports centre with swimming pool, and primary school (). Secondary schooling, both state and private, is well catered for with the ever popular Churchill Academy & Sixth Form () on the doorstep which has recently been awarded Outstanding by Ofsted and also benefits from a modern sports complex, and private schools at Bristol, Wells, Sidcot, Bath and Wraxall. Churchill is favoured by the commuter, being convenient for the cities of Bristol, Bath and Wells and the seaside town of Weston-super-Mare, and there is access to the M5 at Clevedon (junction 20) and St. Georges (junction 21). There is an international airport at Lulsgate and a mainline railway link at Yatton and Weston-super-Mare. The countryside around is well known for its beauty, with many country pursuits available including; walking, hunting, caving, dry-skiing, sailing and fishing, and for the lover of equestrian arts, Churchill is very well served. 

DIRECTIONS Travelling south from Bristol on the A38, turn right at Churchill traffic lights, right at the Clock Tower, and the property can be found on the left-hand side a little way down the road before the Alms Houses and nearly opposite the post office and general store. Look out for the black sign saying Briarwood and Oak Lodge and pointing to the public footpath.

 

OUR VENDOR SAYS Just a minute's walk from the post office, Oak Lodge has always felt close to the heart of the village yet it still gives the restful feel of the countryside, with views over the fields to the Mendips and to the beautiful sunsets beyond.
We've loved our time as part of Churchill's thriving community, but after 15 years it's time to move on and let someone else have the privilege of living here.

 

WE HAVE NOTICED I absolutely love the position and potential with Oak Lodge, you could do as little or as much as you wish with the property which in my mind lends itself perfectly to a grand designs style makeover. The front and rear garden, plus generous parking help make the property feel very private and discrete and yet the school and local amenities are literally a short walk away, as is the great outdoors and miles upon miles of wonderful local countryside to explore.
