Dale House & Annexe, High Street, High Littleton, Bristol, BS39 6HW

Quote Reference NF0664 To Arrange Your Viewing

Dale House is a wonderful example of Georgian architecture, located in the village of High Littleton, seldom seen in village locations this far out from the city of Bath. The clean lines, sash windows and pitched roof reminiscent of this era makes the property look so attractive and inviting. In some ways contrasting this home in looks but maybe not in age is a two storey stone built characterful barn which is now an Annexe in the rear garden. 

This wonderful property has served as a very happy family home to the vendors since 1992, allowing elderly parents to co exist with the family and more recently create a successful income via Air BNB. So even today it provides options that could suit a variety of buyers including home workers or those seeking project space.

The main house is laid over three storeys and is entered via a good sized porch, before opening into a reception/dining hall, space in abundance, a beautiful central fire place with fitted cupboards and shelving to either side of the chimney breast. Each room has sash windows in the main and still in place are those wooden folding shutters which is a treat to see. Across the hall is the Living room also with a log burner fireplace and room for several sofas and chairs to relax in. Heading to the rear is a generous kitchen room with a large window overlooking the rear garden as well as a solid stable door with stained glass. To the side is a bathroom with a roll top, claw foot bath with a travertine tiled surround. 

Ascend the first floor to find a shower room, a large split level landing, which makes a lovely library or seating area. Across from here are three double bedrooms on either side of the house. Climb again and find a fourth bedroom, before a flight of stairs leads you to the loft room which has been a superb double bedroom, just next to this is another large loft room. 

The Annexe, handsome in its own right, has an upside down layout which is very clever. You enter via a door into a hall which gives access into a double bedroom with an en-suite wet room to the side of it. A turning staircase(previously a lift) takes you up to the living/dining room with French doors and skylight windows, here you can look along down the rear garden. Next to this room is a kitchen with fitted appliances and next to that is a WC so no need to go downstairs for the loo. There is a metal stair way leading outside and down to the ground floor also. 

There is a garage/store within the annexe which is very handy and has utilities and appliance space as well as shelving. Between the properties is a block paved driveway which can accommodate around six cars in total, five within the rear garden behind the double gates and one in front of them. 

The southerly facing rear gardens are generous, with a wall and hedge surround, full of flowers, shrubs, trees and wild life. A gardeners paradise I feel, great earth for growing fruits and vegetables as well as a lawn area and places to seat and enjoy. The vendors have filled the gardens with colour which explode into life come spring time through the summer months. 

The front gardens are well maintained, full of shrubs and trees to give privacy and and add to the feeling of nature. This is a special property that I feel is unique in its style and offering that will be perfect for someone that has likely been looking for some time for something like this to appear.
