Description

A Unique & Rare Opportunity To Acquire The Manor, Originally Built in 1954. The Property Has Been Completely Renovated & Transformed To A Spacious & Bright, Contemporary Home With Five Generous En-suite bedrooms Set In Gardens Of Approximately One Acre. Enjoying Wonderful 360-degree Countryside Views, Including The Wide, Shallow Avon Valley & The Meadows Of Bathampton To The Front.

The Property - The entire property has been completely renovated in all respects. The house has been extended to both the side and rear. The front façade has been opened up with large bay windows and a wide two-storey wall of glass showcasing a modern open-tread glass staircase at the main entrance. The external walls have been finished with decorative quoins and rendered in cream. The entire roof has also been replaced and remodelled with new Velux windows for additional natural light to the habitable second floor.

Internally, the main entrance door opens into a large open-plan kitchen and dining space with extensive navy blue units. The suite features two ovens, a plate warmer, 800mm-wide induction hob and integrated extractor, dishwasher, island with double-sided breakfast bar and large 2.3m x 1.8m work surface, two full-height fridge-freezers and a wine cooler. The dining area is finished with a beautiful log burner and a downstairs WC.

Two large reception rooms complete the ground floor space, each receiving lots of light from the large box bay windows and bi-fold doors creating a seamless link with the outdoors.

An illuminated open-tread glass staircase guides you up to the first floor, which boasts three bedrooms, all with modern En-suites. The second floor contains another two larger En-suite bedrooms, including showers, a standalone bath, jacuzzi and two study areas.

Externally, the property boasts a very large plot. Entry is gained through large electronic sliding gates from the road with a long drive up to the house, terminating with a turning circle around a central fountain. Terraced paving around the entire house creates indoor-outdoor living from three rooms (2x receptions and kitchen), with a dedicated outdoor kitchen area to the rear. Two zones are provided for parking: one for five vehicles and another for three. The gardens to the front are largely lawned but provide a large blank canvas for further development if desired.

The Situation - The property sits in an enviable plot and enjoys wonderful 360-degree countryside views, including the wide, shallow Avon valley and the meadows of Bathampton to the front. The neighbourhood feels truly rural, quiet and peaceful (with sheep, cows and horses quietly grazing in the fields to the rear) yet the property is located very close to the M4 with fast road connections in numerous directions.
