Highlands Road, Long Ashton, Bristol, North Somerset, BS41

A detached, four-bedroom, 1960s house in the ‘Highlands’ area of Long Ashton, with gardens to the front and rear, far-reaching views, driveway parking and a garage.

This light and airy property benefits from an elevated position, about half-way up Highlands Road, on the left hand side, and set back and up from the road. Its fortunate position means there are fabulous, far-reaching views, especially from the main bedroom and study/reception room.

This renovated property has a contemporary kitchen diner, with high quality kitchen units and fittings, a Belfast sink, a large window to the front in the kitchen area and French doors onto the garden from the dining area. Next to the kitchen diner is a separate utility room, with built-in units, inset sink and doors to the front and rear gardens.

There is a ground floor bathroom, off the central hallway, which is beautifully tiled and has a separate walk-in shower area, as well as a bath, with high quality fittings and a window to the rear.

The main reception room is over 25 ft (7.7m) at its deepest point. Double doors at the front can be opened onto a further ground floor room, extending it further, or that room could alternatively be used as a study or playroom. To the rear of the main reception room (sitting room), are large patio doors onto the rear garden.

Upstairs, there are four bedrooms, plus a further shower room. The main bedroom has maximum measurements of over 20 ft x over 15 ft, including space to potentially incorporate an en-suite, if one was desired. This room also has the best views in the house, from three Velux roof windows, which are top-hung to maximise the enjoyment of the view over the countryside around Long Ashton and towards Bristol.

Externally, as well as the front garden area with its flower beds, there is driveway parking in front of an undercroft garage, plus there is a path to the side of the property between the front and rear gardens. The rear garden has a level area immediately beyond the rear of the house, the full width of the house and directly accessible from the sitting room, kitchen diner and utility room. Beyond that are flower beds rising to the main lawned section of garden and various shrubs and trees.

We expect this property to be very popular, with the combination of the location, space inside and out, quality of finish and view. It also has the advantage of being sold with no onward chain.


Location

Long Ashton is perfectly positioned between the city of Bristol and the open countryside of North Somerset. The village is surrounded by fields, woods and golf courses. It also benefits from a David Lloyd Leisure Complex and the Ashton Court Estate at one end of the village, and at the other, Gatcombe Farm Shop and Ashton Hill.

Residents enjoy the convenience of a local Post Office, pharmacy, doctors, dentists, hairdressers, barbers, vets, Co-op supermarket, three/four pubs, the renowned Little Tipple, The Old Library (now a modern cafe/bar/pizzeria) and a local bakery.

There are two highly regarded primary schools within Long Ashton (Birdwell Primary School and Northleaze Primary School), as well as a choice of independent schools and secondary schools within easy reach.

The Long Ashton Village Hall, Café and Community Centre provide a hub for community activities/groups and a venue for the village market. Plus, there are playgrounds, a football pitch, a bowling green, tennis courts and a cricket club, along with local parks and woodlands to enjoy.

Bristol's Harbourside is only 2 or 3 miles away, while Clifton and central Bristol are only 3 or 4 miles from Long Ashton.

The ideal location, between the city and the countryside, with a thriving village community and plenty of village amenities, yet so close to the wonderful city of Bristol!
