A delightful former barn in this popular and peaceful village presented in excellent order throughout, set in beautiful level gardens with a paddock to the rear.
Description
This delightful former barn was converted some 30 years ago and has been lived in and enjoyed by the current owners for over 18 years. Situated in the heart of the pretty small village of Queen Charlton and tucked away towards the end of a discreet rural lane, the property is approached via a pair of wooden gates into a large forecourt with parking for numerous cars. A stone built double garage with electric roller shutter doors provides space for a further two cars and plenty of additional storage space. Much of the charm of the property lies in its wonderful country setting with extensive grounds that extend beyond the lovely level gardens to an enclosed paddock that slopes down the hillside beyond. The backdrop of rolling countryside is very special and affords the property a wonderful sense of peace and privacy, yet just a short drive from both Bath and Bristol.
From the driveway, the property is entered on a day-to-day basis through the recently added orangery with a lantern roof and a small seating area with pleasant views across the adjacent flagstone terrace to the wooded hillside beyond. There is a useful utility room set off which houses the Grant oil fired central heating boiler and hot water tank and provides space for drying outdoor clothing and footwear.
The rustic riven slate floor is a practical finish for country living and leads through into a large high vaulted kitchen/dining room at the heart of the home. This is a relaxed and informal space for family gatherings and enjoys good deal of natural light with windows to the front, ceiling Velux and with sliding doors to a pretty central courtyard. The kitchen features a central island unit with plenty of built-in storage cabinets with granite work surfaces, a Siemens electric oven with hob over and an oil fired Aga.
The slate flooring continues from the kitchen into the principal hallway with the study off and a family bathroom with a roll edged Victorian style bath. The hall leads to the beautifully light sitting room, again with a high vaulted ceiling and a dual aspect which takes in the views across the surrounding grounds. A pair of doors open to the dining terrace. This room has oak flooring which compliments the oak doors and architraves used throughout the property and also houses a substantial Jetul wood burning stove.
On this side of the property there are three double bedrooms with the principal suite including a generous, fully tiled modern bathroom with a contemporary stone hand basin and an open rain shower. To the far side is a walk in wardrobe with space for dressing. An impressive guest suite is located to far side of the kitchen and mirroring the principal bedroom, this also has a smart en suite and an additional walk in wardrobe.
The beautifully established garden is a noteworthy feature of this home, mostly designed, created and planted by the current owners. Immediately to the front of the property there are thoughtfully planted gravel beds adjacent to a sweeping area of terrace that wraps both to the front and side of the property. A level and wide expense of lawn is bordered by large and colourful herbaceous beds planted for year round interest, with hornbeam hedging screening one side of the garden, laid out to neatly frame the view of the adjoining countryside.
To the side of the garage is a hidden and sheltered kitchen garden with a series of raised beds, a greenhouse and a useful potting shed. Including the paddock, the grounds extend to approximately one acre.
Location
Queen Charlton is a charming village nestled in the heart of Somerset, offering a tranquil and picturesque setting with excellent access to both Bristol and Bath. Located just 6 miles from Bristol and 9 miles from Bath, the village enjoys a prime position for those seeking a peaceful lifestyle while remaining within easy reach of both vibrant cities.
For commuters, the nearest mainline rail station is in Keynsham, just 3 miles away, providing direct links to both Bristol and Bath.
