4 bedroom detached house

Few properties from this period exist in Nailsea and even fewer occupy such a highly convenient location, with virtually every amenity on the doorstep and the potential for a remarkable south-south-westerly facing garden. The house is in need of reappointment with potential for some restructuring and reconfiguration. However, it presents a fabulous opportunity for those with vision to create a truly fine home.

Available with no onward chain.

Dating from the 1930s, the house is traditionally constructed with rendered elevations beneath a tiled roof.

A number of original features remain, including parquet flooring and open fireplaces, while the kitchen and principal reception room overlook and open onto the rear garden.

The remaining two reception rooms include a study and an attractive dining room or sitting room with a large bay window and an original fire surround.

On the first floor, the landing leads to three double bedrooms, a single bedroom, and a spacious family bathroom.

The principal bedroom benefits from a further bay window, while the second and third double bedrooms enjoy views over the rear garden.

Outside:
Cranmore enjoys the particular advantage of excellent parking on its own carriage sweep driveway, which is block-paved and leads to a detached pre-cast concrete-panel double garage at the side. The garage is somewhat dilapidated!

The garden is unusual in that part of the plot was acquired some years ago by the District Council, who at the time planned to create an inner ring road.

These plans will never come to fruition, as much of the proposed route has since been developed and now forms nearby Windsor Close. However, the previously acquired section of the garden remains in the ownership of North Somerset Council - depicted in pink on the larger scale garden plan shown here. Over the years, the present owners have maintained the garden, and no other party has access to or rights over the remainder of the plot.

An approach has recently been made to North Somerset Council, who have expressed willingness to sell or lease the land in question to the occupier of Cranmore. The guide price indicated by the local authority can be disclosed to bona fide interested purchasers.

Overall, the combined garden areas amount to approximately ¼ acre, facing south-south-west—widely regarded as the ideal orientation.

The garden and terrace area require extensive work, including tree and bramble trimming, but the potential is immense.

Services & Outgoings:
Mains water, gas, electricity, and drainage are connected. Telephone and broadband services are available, including superfast broadband and cable broadband with download speeds of 1Gb or higher. Gas-fired central heating via radiators, with a recently replaced Worcester boiler.

Council Tax Band: F

Energy Performance:

About Nailsea:

Station Road in Nailsea is home to many of the town's finest properties, particularly those built during the 20th century.

Although now a town, Nailsea is still affectionately referred to as 'the village' by many residents. It is the smallest of the four North Somerset towns but the most conveniently located for Bristol, being just eight miles from the city.

A good range of amenities is available, including large Tesco and Waitrose supermarkets, doctors' and dental surgeries and a pedestrianised shopping centre featuring both national retailers and independent shops.

Additional amenities include gyms within walking distance of the house, a monthly farmers' market and a good selection of cafés, pubs, and restaurants.

Employment levels are high, and the schools are well regarded, with Golden Valley and St. Francis primary schools nearby. Nailsea School and Backwell School are both within easy reach, while independent options in the area include The Downs School.

Although well placed for commuters, Nailsea is surrounded by attractive North Somerset countryside. The town benefits from easy access to major centres in the region, as well as the SUSTRANS national cycle network, which provides a good route to Bristol and other destinations.

Junctions 19 and 20 of the M5 motorway are less than six miles away, offering excellent connectivity to the national motorway network. Nailsea & Backwell railway station, within walking distance of the property, provides direct train services to Bristol, Filton Abbey Wood, Bath and London - Paddington, among other destinations.
