A charming setting away from main roads and development areas in Backwell

An exceptionally spacious 4 double bedroom, 3 bathroom family home offering light, airy and very flexible accommodation, a generous level garden and a double garage in an attractive quiet position in this prime North Somerset village.

This superb individual 4 double bedroom home stands peacefully in a private, level setting in this very desirable private avenue that is well placed for village amenities and picturesque open countryside while being well away from any busy roads.

Nut Trees originally dates from the 1950's though, in recent years the property has been extensively modernised and improved creating an extremely comfortable home. The extensive accommodation that with the garage extends to over 187 sq. m - 2,000 sq. ft and is well appointed and fully insulated resulting in a good energy performance rating of C-70. The layout offers great flexibility and a real feeling of space with all main rooms arranged to take advantage of an outlook over the lovely level south westerly facing private rear garden.

There are three reception rooms including a study while the large dining room adjoins the kitchen allowing the option of opening the two rooms into one to form an open plan kitchen – diner - family room if preferred though this alteration is by no means necessary given the airy feel and space offered in each room.

The gardens are a further particular feature at Nut Trees with a well screened garden at the front and completely private rear garden that is laid to level lawn with attractive gravelled terraces and a productive fruit and vegetable garden, all perfectly orientated to take advantage of the sunny position with a double drive and double garage to the side.

The Accommodation:
The reception hall is very inviting with a Velux window above streaming light into the heart of the property. A large full height cupboard gives plenty of room to tidy coats and shoes out of the way and a staircase rises to the first floor.

The very pleasing double aspect living room has patio doors opening onto the rear garden and a wood burning stove giving a lovely focal point.

The reception hall also opens to the well proportioned dining room that again overlooks the rear garden and directly adjoins the kitchen offering the potential to combine the two rooms and create a large open plan family space if required.

The comprehensively equipped kitchen similarly enjoys an outlook to the rear and is equipped with a full range of contemporary style wall and floor cupboards with contrasting solid laminate work surfaces with a one and a half bowl stainless steel sink inset, a gas hob with a cooker hood above and a built in eye level electric double oven with grill. There is space and plumbing for a washing machine and dishwasher as well as plenty of space for an American style fridge freezer.

A door leads to the main terrace and the garden, and a further door leads to the perfectly placed study, ideal for getting a coffee while working.

The ground floor also offers two generous double bedrooms that share a centrally placed bathroom with a large quadrant shower enclosure, a WC and a wash hand basin set in a fitted vanity unit.

Ascending to the first floor, the fantastic principal bedroom suite overlooks the rear garden with a more open outlook beyond and includes a walk in wardrobe and a bathroom en suite. In addition, there is eaves storage space.

The second of the two bedrooms upstairs is also a good sized double room again enjoying an outlook to the rear. Here there is an en suite shower room and two built in eaves storage cupboards.

Throughout the property is well presented and tastefully decorated allowing you to just move in and start living.

Outside:
The pretty cottage garden at the front leads via a wrought iron gate and path to the front door with lawned areas to either side and mature planted shaped borders.

The gravelled double drive offers plenty of parking and leads to the detached Double Garage with a pair of remote-controlled doors and a personnel door to the side. The garage offers superb space that includes a hobbies room - utility area. Light, power and water are connected and there is plenty of storage including the open truss roof space above.

Double gates at the side of the garage lead to the simply delightful rear garden. Bathed in sunshine throughout the day the garden has a fruit and vegetable area with greenhouse, raised vegetable beds, apple and pear trees and a small pond.

The main area of the garden is laid to lawn and is bounded with timber fencing and established hedging that combine to offer complete privacy and there are two gravelled terraces one adjoining the living room and the other a lovely sheltered sunny area adjoining the kitchen.

The Village:
Backwell is arguably the most sought-after village in North Somerset with good transport links including a mainline railway station direct trains to London – Paddington and good bus services. There are a wide variety of local amenities, doctors and dental surgeries and good schooling.

Local leisure prospects are similarly attractive and for the commuter, Backwell is very well placed with Bristol just 8 miles away. Junctions 19 and 20 of the M5 are also both within 8 miles. Between Backwell and neighbouring Nailsea there are a host of clubs and societies for all ages and interests with Swimming, Tennis, Badminton, Bowls, Rugby, Cricket, Croquet and Football to mention just a few of the sporting facilities available. There are Gyms in Nailsea and a David Lloyd club just 5 miles away on the edge of Bristol. Town centre facilities are offered in Nailsea with large Waitrose and Tesco supermarkets, independent and national retailers.

The property is located with easy access to the picturesque countryside of Backwell common and Backwell Lake, while the SUSTRANS cycle network is on the doorstep with access to Bristol and many other destinations. For more distant destinations, Bristol airport is under 6 miles away, but the village is not under any low-level flight paths.

Construction:
The property is traditionally constructed and therefore fully mortgageable if you require a mortgage or an equity release arrangement.
