Description

A comprehensively refurbished and exceptionally stylish period home in the heart of a tranquil and picturesque hamlet overlooking its own village green.

Description

A rare opportunity to purchase a comprehensively refurbished 16th century house of considerable character in the middle of an unspoilt and peaceful rural hamlet, overlooking its own village green. Tolzey House, as it was called then, was built on what was the original road from Bath to Bristol and
tolls were paid in Tolzey House and a sheepfair was regularly held on the green from as far back as the 13th Century. The village fete is still held on the green and the historic 12th Century Cross is a listed Ancient Monument. In recent years, the current owner has carried out a detailed programme of remodelling and restoration and this lovely home is now presented in exceptionally stylish order throughout with light and elegant accommodation over just two floors.

A short pathway to the front leads to a canopied entrance porch with doorway into a well-proportioned tiled entrance hall with under floor heating. To the left of the hallway is a beautiful drawing room with a large window enjoying vistas across the green to the church beyond, with period features including working shutters and with a central fireplace with a Jetmaster open fire providing a focal point to the room. Set directly opposite the drawing room is the dual aspect dining room, again with shutters and with a further Jetmaster fireplace with stone surround. A doorway from the dining room leads into the superb, newly created kitchen breakfast room fitted with an extensive range of cabinets in muted grey tones, a central breakfast bar and food preparation island and a range of high quality built-in appliances. Bifold doors open directly to a sheltered dining terrace, perfect for summer entertaining. In addition to the large drawing room, there is a more intimate snug, a cosy room with a woodboring stove and with a pair of double doors into a good size glazed garden room which enjoys a good deal of the afternoon sun. A finely turned period staircase leads to the first floor on which there are four good bedrooms. The principal bedroom is set at the front of the property with the most delightful outlook towards the church and it features a well appointed ensuite. A travertine tiled bathroom supports the other three bedrooms with an additional modern wet room on the ground floor.

The walled, level garden is beautifully enclosed and well stocked with mature shrubs and trees and with wide heavily planted borders. In one corner is a discreetly hidden and well tended kitchen garden. A double garage and ancillary outdoor storage sheds provide plenty of space for garden machinery and tools.

Location

Queen Charlton is a small village located just south west of Keynsham, originally named after Catherine Parr who was given the manor by her husband King Henry VIII. Dominating the centre of this quaint west country village is the beautiful St Margaret’s Church located directly opposite Tolzey Cottage.

The property is located just 6 miles from Bath and approximately 5 miles south east from Bristol. Shops and other amenities are available at nearby Keynsham including main line rail services to both cities and providing a direct link to London Paddington.

The M4 motorway can be swiftly accessed via the A4174 dual carriageway that runs immediately to the north of the Keynsham bypass and Bristol Airport is approximately 10 miles distant.
