The Oxe Yard, Yatton

"From an old barn to a home, a labour of love we've had the pleasure of calling home for 16 years.
We'll always have great memories of enjoying the gardens and the patio in the Summer, as well as the Aga and the log burner in the winter."

This stunning barn conversion is positioned in the North End area of Yatton, within easy reach of Clevedon. Yatton is a family area, renowned for great schools, green spaces and family pubs, all of which are within walking distance of this home. Cadbury Hill Fort and Nature Reserve is a beautiful space to the south, offering a brilliant space for dog-walks, runners and off-road cyclists, whilst the coast is just a short journey away through the lanes of Kingston Seymour and into Clevedon. Yatton Rugby Club is a great community hub nearby, whilst Claverham Cricket Club is a beautifully scenic cricket ground, home to a successful local club, whilst at Cadbury House there is a gym, restaurant and event space just on the southern side of Claverham. Claverham, Yatton and the surrounding villages thrive in popularity due mostly to the balance they strike between country life and accessibility to the city and the motorway. Yatton Train Station is nearby and offers great access to Bristol and a direct train to London. The journey into the centre of Bristol should usually take under half an hour and within less time residents can be in the most scenic and arid parts of the Mendips.

Situated on half an acre plot, with a beautiful orchard and lots of space to grow produce, is this stunning 18 year old barn conversion, formerly a used to house oxen for the local farm. The house is tucked away, behind an electric gate shared with one other property, meaning this is a hugely private yet substantial plot, with a variety of options for areas to spend time outside. The large courtyard area, with established trees and shrubs giving ample shade, give the space a continental feel. The large level courtyard, accessible from the open-plan living space, mean there is a beautiful flow between inside and out.

The indoor space is dominated by an impressive kitchen/dining/living space, measuring 11.3 x 5 metres. The kitchen is large and practical, with a farmhouse style fitting for the building. This is a space big enough to house a large dining table, along with living area. The ground floor is also houses a utility space and downstairs WC, as well as an additional living room, currently used as an office. Upstairs, there is a family bathroom and three bedrooms, with an en-suite to the master.

Throughout the house the quality of material used is evident, whilst the skill and precision with which this build was completed is evident through the owners stories and records. There is clear attention to detail with the carpentry and finishing throughout, with equal care being taken of the beautiful gardens as well.
