Set back from Preston Road, approached via a private road with electric gates, the property enjoys generous parking and turning space. The driveway continues to The Coach House and a secondary rear restricted access.

The ground floor comprises an entrance porch leading into a generous reception hallway with parquet flooring. To the right is a small home gym with French doors that lead into a large dual apsect study. Straight off the reception hallway is the sitting room, a wonderful, spacious, light room with feature bay window and multi fuel burner. The modern breakfast room and kitchen form a seamless, wonderful, high end, casual cooking/dining area, perfect for entertaining. Beyond is the dining room, garden room, guest bedroom and ensuite and this complex of rooms would work really well as an annexe for your guests. There is also a downstairs WC.

The first floor has a wonderful spacious landing with doors leading to the 4 double bedrooms, 2 of which are ensuite. The third bedroom backs onto the family bathroom and WC so it could also be an ensuite/Jack and Jill set up. The master bedroom and bedroom 2 have access to the balcony with room for patio furniture and wonderful views over the gardens and pool area.

The property presents amazing potential, subject to the necessary consents, for a substantial annexe/studio or whatever your imagination desires. The Coach House is a wonderful Edwardian building, in the order of 150 square meters, dating back to 1903 and benefits from mains water and drainage and electricity. It retains original features such as stable doors and divisions. It has been used in recent times for garaging and can accommodate numerous vehicles. There is an inner hallway with stairs rising to a spacious open-plan games room with Velux roof lights and garden views, along with a separate dual-aspect room with cast iron fireplace.

The beautifully landscaped south facing gardens are screened by mature trees and hedging, offering privacy and tranquillity. A large central lawn is complemented by a heated outdoor pool with its own pool house and a pergola draped with a mature grapevine, and a well-established kitchen garden.

Further features include an aluminium greenhouse, outdoor WC, and a veranda with sun terrace overlooking a lower terraced garden with raised pond. A private gate gives direct access to Sydney Gardens. In all, the grounds extend to approximately two-thirds of an acre.

This property is an amazing opportunity and is presented with NO CHAIN and a MOTIVATED VENDOR. Make sure you book your viewing early.

Directions: From the hospital roundabout take the A37 exit to Bristol. At the next roundabout, the College one, take the first exit signposted Montacute / Odcombe. 21 Preston Road is approximately 50 meters away on the left hand side of the road. If you pass the Ivelhurst Nursing Home you have gone too far.
