2 bedroom detached house for sale

Carefully restored in the early 20th century, Nailsea Court provides a distinguished setting for this Grade II listed lodge, which has been sensitively adapted to balance its period character with the comforts of modern living.

Approached via a sweeping, tree lined drive and set amongst mature gardens, the property enjoys a peaceful and private setting. Tall stone-mullioned windows draw in natural light and frame views across the surrounding Somerset countryside, lending a quiet sense of space and connection to the landscape.

Steps to the side of the property lead down to the front door, opening into a welcoming hallway with a tiled floor. To the left, the kitchen is fitted with a traditional Aga, Italian cabinetry, and integrated appliances including a dishwasher and fridge. Well proportioned windows fill the space with light, and a door leads seamlessly into the principal sitting room.

The dining room, also accessed from the hallway, features a large window with a charming window seat, original wooden doors opening to the side of the property and glazed sliding doors connecting to the sitting room, allowing the spaces to be opened for more expansive entertaining when required. From the dining room, a door leads to a generous utility room, providing space for multiple appliances and with provision for an additional electric oven if required.

The main sitting room serves as the heart of the home, with soaring vaulted ceilings, expansive windows, and a mezzanine above, complete with oak balustrades, overlooking the space. The outlook from this room stretches across open countryside, enhancing the sense of calm and light. A cloakroom completes the ground floor accommodation.

From the landing, the principal bedroom is a generous and beautifully appointed space, featuring exquisite handmade oak furniture by local craftsman Robert Coles. The room includes a well-appointed en-suite bathroom with a white suite and bath. A door from the bedroom leads directly to the mezzanine level overlooking the sitting room.

This striking mezzanine is a distinctive feature of the house, fitted with bespoke oak bookcases, a designated study area, and integrated controls for the discreet house sound system.

The second double bedroom is equally impressive, also with oak furniture and a private en-suite shower room. Completing the upper level is a functional airing cupboard, providing practical storage.

Outside

The property is set within mature, landscaped gardens that provide privacy and a peaceful outlook across the surrounding Somerset countryside. A distinctive rill water feature introduces gentle movement and interest, while stone steps descend to a sheltered sunken patio.

In addition, a generous paved patio, overlooked by the kitchen window, offers an ideal setting for al fresco dining and entertaining.

To the rear, a level lawn extends away from the house, complemented by a beautifully crafted garden shed designed in keeping with the architectural style of the lodge. Along one boundary, a neatly clipped box hedge forms a natural division from the immaculately maintained communal gardens, and further stone steps rise to the dining room doors, providing an attractive and practical connection between house and garden.
