Quote Reference NF0664 To Arrange Your Viewing.

1 South View, A Victorian Cottage sat prominently along South Road on the edge of the village and purveys over the Cam Valley and Mendip hills across from it. From the stone pillars leading to the intricate porch and solid Oak door adorned with stained glass, you feel this property is special. Make sure you look back over your shoulder before going inside to drink in those views from the front of the property.

Inside you will find a clean, light fresh decor from the entrance hallway with a sash window at the rear part way up the stairs. A solid wooden to the side reveals the living dining room with ornate cornicing above you and a dual aspect spacious room, French doors leading to the garden, varnished wooden floor boards and a stone surround fireplace framing the sizeable log burner for those cosy winter evenings. 

Across from her is the Kitchen, in a modern navy blue  range of wall and base units, contrasting with white work surfaces, its spacious light and has all the appliances you can wish for including an impressive gas hob range style cooker.  Obscure glass blocks and a doorway partition from the utility room with another sink and space for appliances, dressed in the same style as the kitchen.  To the side much needed in a family home is a classically presented cloakroom.

The first floor has a long landing and provides three bedrooms, all very well presented in different colour palates. The primary bedroom is 4.77 metres long and has two sash windows flooding the room with light and those views when you awaken are wonderful, a iron fireplace nods back to yesteryear. Pulling you back into todays modern world is the bright fresh en-suite shower room complete with a zesty teal tiled wall. Parents will be grateful of. 

Bedroom Two has a large cupboard that could possible be converted into an en-suite as its positioned next to the Bathroom with plumbing nearby. The Bathroom itself is very well presented with textured wall tiles and a crisp white suite. 

There is a second floor, loft room which has a stairway leading up to. Here you are in the attic so have exposed wooden beams and trusses on show, there are skylight windows and a side window. This is presently used an an office, not a bad commute! Previous owners had it as a bedroom, albeit a lower ceiling. 

Outside, The Wool Shop, as its fondly known, was an operating shop until sometime in the 1980's. Now a charming self contained annexe. Attractive to look at built in stone with a slate roof. The living room has a dual aspect and leads to a very pleasant modern kitchen. The bedroom is well proportioned with a shower room next to it. My vendors parents when visiting from overseas have enjoyed their time there.

The gardens which are enclosed mainly by stone walls with some fencing, you will find various places to enjoy, the rear garden has a lawn with planted borders of shrubs and trees, a stone patio/barbecue area and a workshop/shed. One of my favourite areas is the courtyard with potted plants and an under croft log store. To the front is a deep set front garden with a lawn, shingle pathway and planted borders of wild flowers making it bee and insect friendly. 

There is an area to the side with double wooden gates and this area potentially could be converted into parking creating a driveway subject to gaining the necessary consents. Presently parking on the road doesn't prove to be an problem in this quiet location. 

Location

The village of Timsbury is such a highly regarded village to call home. The community is renowned for its friendly and active society. Viewers often comment to me how warming it is wandering around the village. There is a bounty of commercial outlets, nearly town like, so the village has more than most, such as supermarkets, cafes, public house, doctors surgery, chemist, herbal shop, hair dressers, theatre club, village hall, cycling club, St Mary Church, football, Cricket clubs and so much more. Timsbury Primary School, recently rated as outstanding OFSTED criteria is a big attraction for families and Secondary Children often go to Norton Hill, Writhlington, St Gregorys to name a few.

Located between the cities of Bath and Bristol, with Wells a little further the other way its a great base for those wanting the calmness of rural living yet easily connectable to the larger conurbations. There are frequent Buses and nearby in Keynsham the train Station. You can be at Bristol Airport within 45 minutes. Heading west you are on the door step to the Mendip hills, Chew Valley and everything the coveted South West has to offer.
