The Ripple, Tickenham, BS21

A four-bedroom detached residence built in 1954, nestled away in a popular and peaceful private road on an elevated position offering far reaching views. Ingleside occupies an impressive plot of around 0.66 of an acre in total including a hillside copse directly opposite the house. Without doubt the most impressive attribute is the beautiful rear garden providing such a pleasing outlook as well as a southerly orientation. This well-tended garden contains a rich variety of mature shrubs, bushes and tree specimens including apple trees, a fig tree, an impressive, recently constructed green house and the striking centrepiece of a most attractive blue cedar tree. There is also an ornamental pond and vegetable garden. A raised sun deck that wraps around the front and side elevation of the house. This provides the perfect spot to catch the sun whilst overlooking the garden as well as taking in some impressive views towards the hills of Dundry and Barrow Gurney on the horizon. There is also a large double garage with an electric up and over door, driveway parking in front of it and useful store rooms underneath accessed via the sun deck.
