Description
Description
Enjoying a most peaceful and private location, Briery Hill House is an elegant Grade II Listed farmhouse set in approx. 32 acres of prime West Gloucestershire countryside. Discreetly positioned at the end of a private 1/3 mile drive surrounded by quintessential farmland, it affords wondrous views of the rolling escarpment. Dating from the late 17th century, it has a plethora of original features such as, high ceilings, exposed oak beams, flagstone floors and period fireplaces, together with natural charm, character and warmth. It has an exceptionally pretty and classical façade which is adorned with sash windows and fluted Doric columns.
Entered by way of a traditional entrance hall, the pragmatic layout lends itself to an inclusive and relaxed lifestyle. The bespoke, handcrafted kitchen is of particular note: fitted with a comprehensive range of units, cabinetry, integrated appliances, Belfast sink and a Double Neff oven. Furthermore, it has a striking central unit/bar affording beautiful views over the front aspect. The light and airy dining room has French doors opening to the rear garden and complements the formal drawing room which has an imposing open fire. In addition to a warm and cosy sitting room is a spacious boot room/utility area and a fitted cloakroom.
The first floor consists of two bedrooms and a well-appointed family bathroom. The principal bedroom enjoys a dual aspect and has the great benefit of a sizeable dressing room and an attractive en suite. Stairs rise to the second floor and in turn to three further double bedrooms, all of which enjoy commanding views of the immediate countryside.
Of particular attraction is the superb self-contained adjoining cottage, ideal for an array of purposes, such as an income generating rental or for extended family/guests, it is in good decorative order throughout. In brief: fitted kitchen, dining room with French doors opening to terrace, a dual aspect sitting room, a spacious double bedroom and an en suite bathroom.
Furthermore, there is a notably spacious cellar which allows for generous storage capabilities.
The substantial and striking traditional brick barn is positioned well away from the principal house and is approached off the entrance drive. In excellent condition, it has been used in a versatile manner, mainly utilised for storage. It affords opportunity for scope/conversion (subject to the necessary planning). Adjoining the barn is a further period brick bothy with first floor, beyond which is an open-fronted agricultural storage barn and a modern 4 bay barn.
The gardens and farmland are a marvellous extension of the property. The formal west facing garden is flanked by a high period brick wall together with well-stocked herbaceous borders. There is a superb brick built orangery, which affords the ideal place to entertain or simply rest, relax and enjoy the view. The lawns lead to a wild flower area and in turn to a highly attractive lake. Behind the lake is a quaint Shepherd’s Hut with it’s own charming seating area and a bohemian hot tub. The hut is fitted to a very high standard with a fitted kitchenette, dining area and sleeping quarters.
