Lower Farm, Jasmine Lane, Claverham, BS49

An exquisitely presented 5-bedroom detached farmhouse. Tucked away in a quiet and idyllic location it has spectacular gardens, a paddock, garaging and an independent 1-bedroom apartment and offers easy access to Bristol and beyond.

With parts dating back over 400 years, Lower Farm is an immaculately presented traditional farmhouse set in a wonderful rural location in the popular village of Claverham. Sympathetically extended and restored over the years using high-quality craftsmanship and top-end fixtures and fittings - including a stunning Neptune kitchen - much care has been taken to retain the original features while creating a comfortable, modern and eco-conscious family home; offering solar panels, smart lighting controls and underfloor heating in many of the rooms.

The property now offers spacious family accommodation, including five bedrooms, four bathrooms, and four inviting reception rooms. In addition, there is a generously sized one-bedroom apartment (approximately 511 sq ft) with independent access and heating, located above the garage. This apartment would be ideal for teenagers, a dependent relative, or - subject to planning permission - could generate income as a rental property or Airbnb.

Set in grounds of just over an acre, the property features glorious mature gardens, a paddock, stabling, a double garage/workshop, and ample driveway parking.

The House

Stepping through the front door, set beneath a pretty storm porch, you are welcomed into an elegant and spacious reception hall. The character of this beautiful property is immediately evident, with exposed stone walls and beams, latched wooden doors, and deep recessed windows that reflect the charm of both the period and a traditional farmhouse. Additional features such as beamed ceilings, window seats, and inviting fireplaces are sprinkled throughout and enhance the home's timeless appeal.

To the right is the dining room—a delightful space featuring an inglenook fireplace with an attractive slate hearth, a cosy log burner and bread oven. A lovely window seat and exposed beams add to the room's character. An archway leads through to the snug, where useful deep fitted cupboards and an integrated desk make it an ideal work-from-home space.

From the dining room, you walk through to the spectacular kitchen/breakfast room. Travertine flooring with underfloor heating perfectly complements the magnificent Neptune kitchen, which is topped with gorgeous honed granite and natural limestone worktops. Integrated appliances include a light blue ‘smart’ electric AGA, Fisher & Paykel double dish drawer dishwasher, wine cooler, oven, halogen hob, and an InSinkErator hot water tap. The kitchen also features a breakfast bar and a spacious dining area adjoining bifold doors that open to the garden, seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor living.

Beyond the kitchen is a stunning garden room, graciously constructed around a green oak timber frame with a roof lantern. This light-filled space enjoys an almost outdoor feel, thanks to bifold windows and captivating views of the surrounding garden.

The ground floor accommodation continues with several more reception rooms. A formal drawing room features attractive oak flooring and another inglenook fireplace, with deep recessed shelving and an integrated dual-fuel burner. This room opens out into a lovely dual aspect space currently used as a TV room. There is also a small, tucked-away study, fully fitted with Neville Johnson units, as well as a convenient downstairs bathroom with a shower and W.C.

Completing the ground floor accommodation is a well-equipped utility room with space for a fridge/freezer, washing machine, and tumble dryer, along with the control/boiler room and a boot room featuring a larder and access to the back garden.

Upstairs, the guest bedroom is exceptionally spacious, offering a generous sleeping area, a dressing area, and an en-suite shower room with a walk-in shower. There are three further bedrooms, all of which can accommodate double beds, and the impressive principal suite. This capacious room features French doors opening onto a balcony with a glass balustrade, offering expansive views over the garden and surrounding countryside—an idyllic spot to enjoy a morning coffee. The suite also includes a dressing area with double doors leading to a walk-in wardrobe, and a luxurious en-suite bathroom with walk in shower with underfloor heating.

A family bathroom, complete with twin sinks and a bath with a shower over, serves the remaining bedrooms.
