Brinsea Road, Congresbury, Bristol, Somerset, BS49

An incredibly charming and beautifully presented, two double bedroom chocolate box cottage situated in the heart of the popular village of Congresbury.

This impressive property is reputed to be one of the oldest in the village and has been fully renovated to an impeccable standard in recent years to create what is now a wonderfully atmospheric and character packed home. Ivy Cottage is a gorgeous stone built detached cottage that sits behind an attractive stone wall in the middle of Congresbury. Subject to a sympathetic and meticulous restoration project by the current owners over the past decade, it is now a most appealing character home finished to the highest standards of specification throughout.

Entering the cottage through the handy storm porch, you continue into a superb reception dining room, which features a handsome stone inglenook with cast iron woodburner and attractive Oak staircase that rises to the first floor. All the woodwork, which includes the doors, skirting and architraves have been waxed to add practicality and a rich traditional feel and contrasts superbly with stylish natural stone floor. Off the dining/hallway a door leads through to a sweet home office complete, with ample storage cupboards. The sitting room is another immensely attractive room with a cosy and warm ambience. Taking centre stage is a cast iron woodburning stove that acts as a lovely focal point with its Oak overmantel, as well as a fitted bookcase. To the opposite side of the dining/hallway lies the kitchen, another traditional affair with cream shaker style units, complete with integrated appliances and modern range cooker (gas top, electric ovens), with a dishwasher, microwave and fridge freezer built in. The kitchen units are complimented by an attractive stone effect splashback and the stylish natural stone floor that continues from the dining room and uniforms the two rooms perfectly. Completing the ground floor accommodation are two luxurious family bathrooms, one with shower and the other with stylish roll top bath. On the first floor are the two double bedrooms (one with built in wardrobes), both packed with character and with light and airy vaulted ceilings and one with south facing windows.

Externally, the property benefits from a truly stunning and wonderful private, south facing garden which is a real asset to the cottage. It is laid primarily to lawn and has an attractive selection of floral/shrub borders and an abundance of mature trees (including an apple tree and magnolia tree). In addition, there is a superb, decked terrace which is a perfect spot for al-fresco dining and is a real trap. At the bottom of the garden there is a rare and incredibly spacious, detached tandem garage and workshop with electric up and over door and convenient EV charging point.

Congresbury is a popular, semi-rural village in North Somerset which has a great selection of local amenities and traditional pubs on the doorstep. The village itself is a fantastic commuter base with Bristol, Clevedon and Weston-super-Mare all being within a comfortable drive, along with Bristol Airport. There are excellent train links to Bristol, Bath, London and the West Country located at the nearby village of Yatton and frequently running buses, making it a very accessible spot.

An internal inspection is highly recommended, so please call CJ Hole for more details and to arrange a viewing.
