Fern Cottage is accessed through electric gates which open into a gravel driveway that leads onto the landscaped garden to the front. A storm porch fronts the sitting room but more commonly used is the stable door entrance on the right. This entrance hall accesses the downstairs cloakroom with separate shower and the first of two bedrooms. The larger room offers access to a sizeable storage room. Returning to the hallway, we enter the kitchen breakfast room, with fully fitted cupboards and counter space across one side and a stunning dresser filling the wall opposite. From here, we step up to the main kitchen which overlooks the rear. Opposite, we is the characterful dining room with a feature fireplace and a connecting door to the sitting room beside. Each have the original flagstone flooring and the sitting room boasts a traditional log-burning fireplace. Both rooms overlook the mature gardens towards the church.

Upstairs, you will find two further double bedrooms, both with built-in wardrobes and offering beautiful views of the Church. The panelled bathroom is a charming sanctuary and the spacious landing offers a lovely nook that could even work as a home office space. This entire home has been beautifully decorated in tastefully subtle tones that enhance the natural stone walls and exposed floors that sit so well in this beautiful village setting. A true country cottage within a short drive into Bristol City Centre that offers the very best of both worlds.

Directions

From Chew Magna High Street, proceed past, behind the Coop, through Hartford Square and up Chew Hill. At 'T' junction turn right and up Dundry Hill. Continue up and over the hill and left into Dundry. Proceed through the village and Fern Cottage is opposite the Church. ///memo.avoid.unit

Situation

Dundry is a North Somerset village situated on Dundry Hill, in the northern part of the Mendip Hills, between Bristol and the Chew Valley Lake. The city of Bristol is only four miles away and Bath is twelve miles to the west. Its lofty situation, seven hundred feet above sea level at the western end of an exposed four mile long ridge, makes it a notable landmark in North Somerset and its dominance is emphasised by a spectacular fifteenth century church tower. Dundry commands some of the most extensive and beautiful prospects in the west of England, and by night Bristol's lights create a breathtaking scene. The Dundry Inn public house is renowned in the area, and schools include a primary school with secondary schooling available at nearby Chew Valley, and a choice of private schooling in Bristol itself. The area around is well known for its beauty, activities and attraction. The Chew Valley and Blagdon lakes provide a host of activities whilst the nearby Mendips are popular and boast great walking, riding and unspoilt nature.

We have noticed... This large cottage makes for a beautiful home being so full of character and with particularly good proportions. It could even be split to create a separate annex. Highly suited to couples and families.

Our vendors say...We are very sad to be leaving Fern Cottage, the ambiance has made it a welcoming, happy place. We love the quirky layout, logs burning in the fire on winter nights and evenings on the patio during the summer. The view of the church and the walks over the fields and the wonderful views all around.
