A discreet and charming former vicarage, set in mature, private grounds in the heart of Cleeve with no onward chain.
Description
The Old Rectory has remained in the same family ownership since being purchased directly from the Bath and Wells Diocesan Board in 1993. It occupies a discreet and private position at the head of a long sweeping driveway, set well back from the road, and offers a wonderful opportunity to modernise, extend or remodel (subject to planning) to suit individual needs. The property has an inviting and characterful feel, with subtle Arts and Crafts influences throughout the light-filled interior. The accommodation includes a spacious 8.48m sitting room and formal dining room, both with wide bay windows and working fireplaces, plus a large welcoming hallway with a fine central staircase. A solid wood kitchen with space for informal dining features the original period servants’ bell board, adding a unique sense of history. The ground floor also includes a shower room and study/bedroom 5 option. Upstairs, four generously sized bedrooms enjoy countryside views, including a principal suite with a large en suite and a large family bathroom. The home benefits from replacement double glazed windows and solar panels on the rear elevation.
The house sits almost centrally in its mature and expansive grounds, which are a standout feature of this lovely home. A long driveway leads to a generous forecourt with ample parking and access to a detached double garage and log store. The gardens are mainly laid to lawn and interspersed with fine specimen trees, with a wooded backdrop providing a natural sense of enclosure and total privacy. Elevated views over surrounding countryside enhance the appeal, while a southwest facing flagstone terrace provides a perfect space for outdoor dining and entertaining in the sun.
Location
Cleeve is a well-regarded village nestled between Bristol and the Mendip Hills, offering a semi-rural lifestyle with convenient access to key amenities.
The property is within reach of both state and independent schools including Backwell School, Churchill Academy, and the highly regarded Sidcot and Bristol Grammar Schools.
Bristol City Centre is approximately 12 miles away, Bristol Airport just 5 miles, and the nearest railway station at Nailsea & Backwell is around 4 miles, offering direct services to Bristol and London.
Locally, there are excellent village amenities including Touts and Tesco Express, restaurants such as The Maple and Alfresco, and access to scenic countryside walks, cycling routes, and nearby sporting facilities.
This part of North Somerset is particularly popular for its balance of countryside charm and commuter convenience.
