Somerlea Stables, Lower Langford

An utterly charming semi-detached stone barn conversion in the prime village location of Lower Langford. The former carriage barn and stables has been extensively renovated by the current owners and presents as a stunning home and exciting investment opportunity.

The barn is accessed via a private driveway and gravelled shared courtyard, which is majority owned by this property. Off street parking for two cars. The traditional stable front door leads into a vaulted ceiling living and dining area. Rustic beams and engineered white smoked oak flooring throughout complement a warm, contemporary and beautiful finish, including cosy log burner and slate hearth.

Timber French doors are west facing and open out to the sunny terrace, which receives sunshine from morning well into the late afternoon. Contains established white roses, wisteria and jasmine.

A Shaker style kitchen, just beyond the living room, is modern rustic with timber worktops and a Smeg Range cooker with five ring gas hob and two electric ovens. The design is complemented by a Belfast sink with lovely views to the garden. Ample cabinets and space for white goods.

The primary bedroom is located to the rear of the barn, with oak flooring and shelving throughout and a fitted triple wardrobe. The second bedroom is carpeted and presently used as a home office rather than double bedroom. Both bedrooms have new handmade timber windows and original ‘live edge’ wooden windowsills.

The bathroom is luxurious and recently renovated to a high standard. Roll top bath and rain shower overhead. It benefits from integrated shelving and built-in cabinetry storage, with beautiful herringbone feature tiling.

There is sizeable storage in a dual roof loft in addition to a large storage cupboard, both accessed from the living room.

Externally, the charming courtyard garden has flag stone terracing, sleeper raised beds and stone walling. It is a tranquil spot. There is a covered external storage area at the rear perimeter which leads to the front courtyard and woodstore via a private gate.

There is allocated off street parking for two cars on the front courtyard. The courtyard is owned by this property save for parking spaces designated to the other stable properties.

This property would work perfectly for investors with a rental valuation starting at £1,500pcm in this sought after village. The barn is close in proximity (0.3 miles) to the University of Bristol Veterinary School at its rural Langford Campus.

OUR VENDOR SAYS... We adore this tranquil barn and have lovingly renovated, keeping original character features with new modern twists. There's nothing we have enjoyed more than a glass of wine by the log burner in the winter, or amongst the flowers in the garden in Spring/Summer.

WE HAVE NOTICED... This quaint barn is set on the doorstep of lovely scenic countryside walks and has close access to the Mendip Hills, perfect for walking, hiking, mountain biking and more.
