Cams Hill, Down End

DESCRIPTION
This stunning Victorian flint cottage was built as the Lodge to Downend House and featured on Sarah Beeny's 'Renovate Don't Relocate' in July 2021. The present owners took great care to modernise and extend the property whilst retaining and enhancing the numerous character features. This landmark property occupies a large level plot which extends to in excess of a third of an acre and creates the perfect setting for this impressive period home.  The property's accommodation briefly comprises on the ground floor, generous reception hall, wonderful 23' kitchen/diner which overlooks the rear garden, attractive sitting room, two ground floor bedrooms including a well-proportioned principal bedroom with en-suite dressing and shower room. A cloakroom and utility room complete the ground floor accommodation. On the first floor, two generous double bedrooms can be found sharing the three piece bathroom with a freestanding roll top bath. Externally, there is ample off road parking to the gravel driveway which runs alongside the property and provides access to the two adjoining garages. The rear garden is a particular feature of the property and a true gardener's delight. As sole agents, we would highly recommend an early inspection.
