North End Road, Yatton

"We love hosting in this home, especially at Christmas when everyone is gathered by the fire and the kids are running wild with excitement. It’s one of those houses made for it, whether that’s drinks by the fire in winter, a summer BBQ in the garden, or easy dinners with friends and their kids. We’ve also loved being so close to the Strawberry Line and the Mendips, and how easy it is to jump on the train to Bristol or London."

The home

The house has been tastefully and sympathetically updated over the past eight years by the current owners. It offers more than 130 square metres of well planned space with a choice of comfortable living areas. On the ground floor, a spacious hallway leads to two reception rooms and a WC. To the rear sits the heart of the home, a light filled L shaped kitchen and dining space with quartz worktops and a stylish finish. This area was thoughtfully created by converting the former outhouse, allowing for a generous dining section and a more sociable layout, with bi fold doors opening out to the private rear garden, laid with both patio and lawn. Upstairs there are four bedrooms, including an impressive bay fronted main bedroom, along with a family bathroom. The property also benefits from one off street parking space.

The location

This house is situated on North End Road, just after the train station on the right, if coming from Bristol direction. Within walking distance of the house is the well-regarded Yatton Primary School as well as several of Yatton’s shops, cafes and pubs. The area is a short-walk from several outstanding open spaces. Cadbury Hill Fort and Nature Reserve is a short walk away, offering a brilliant space for dog-walks, runners and off-road cyclists. Claverham Cricket Club is a beautifully scenic cricket ground, home to a successful local club, whilst at Cadbury House there is a gym, restaurant and event space just on the southern side of Claverham. Claverham, Yatton and the surrounding villages thrive in popularity due mostly to the balance they strike between country life and accessibility to the city and the motorway. Yatton Train Station is just a minute away by foot and offers great access to Bristol and a direct train to London. The journey into the centre of Bristol should usually take under half an hour and within less time residents can be in the most scenic and arid parts of the Mendips or on the coast at Clevedon or Portishead. For families, the proximity of Backwell School is a real positive, as it is renowned locally as one of the better secondary schools in the area.
