Lodge Lane - A much aspired to address on the Nailsea - Wraxall border

An individual, highly energy-efficient detached Scandinavian-style home occupying a particularly attractive setting in Lodge Lane, on the Nailsea and Wraxall border. Available for the first time since it was built in 1984, the property has been enjoyed by the same owners for more than four decades and offers an increasingly rare opportunity to acquire a home in one of the area's most established and aspired-to residential addresses.

Guide Price £700,000 - £750,000

Lodge Lane has long been prized for its peaceful, semi-rural character, away from busy main roads and characterised by an appealing collection of substantial individual homes. This property sits especially well within its surroundings, standing comfortably back from the lane behind a broad, mature frontage, while to the rear is a particularly lovely, established garden enjoying sunny southerly and westerly aspects.

The setting and plot are undoubtedly among the property's defining features. The garden provides an attractive backdrop to the principal living rooms and, together with the generous frontage, gives the house a wonderful sense of space and privacy. Its size may also offer scope to enlarge the existing accommodation in the future, if required, subject of course to any necessary consents.

The house itself is notably energy efficient, with an excellent EPC rating of B-85, and retains the well-considered proportions and practical layout that first appealed to the present owners when they acquired the property new, having watched its construction progress in 1984. The accommodation flows particularly well, with the original living space now complemented by an exceptionally spacious former conservatory. Significantly improved in recent years with the addition of an insulated roof, this has evolved into an impressive family room that creates a natural connection between the house and garden.

A recessed entrance porch opens into a classic reception hall, where a feature half-return staircase rises to the first floor and a cloakroom is conveniently positioned off.

The double-aspect living room has a calm and comfortable atmosphere, with low-sill windows bringing in plenty of natural light, a feature fireplace and a glazed door opening into the family room beyond. The arrangement allows the eye to be drawn through the house towards the garden, reinforcing the relationship between the internal living space and its attractive setting.

Extending across almost the full width of the house, the family room is an exceptional addition and one of the real highlights of the accommodation. Extensive glazing makes the most of the garden outlook, while glazed double doors open directly onto the broad porcelain-paved terrace and lawn beyond. It is a wonderfully sociable space that effectively draws the garden into the house and works equally well for everyday family life and entertaining.

Further glazed double doors connect the family room with the dining room, creating an easy flow between the principal reception room spaces. A separate study is positioned to the front of the house and offers useful flexibility, being equally suitable as a fourth bedroom if required.

The kitchen is fitted with a comprehensive range of wall and floor cupboards together with integrated appliances including a dishwasher, eye-level electric double oven and grill, inset hob with chimney-style extractor above, and integrated fridge and freezer. Its outlook is to the front across the extensive gravelled forecourt towards Lodge Lane.

On the first floor, the landing leads to three bright and airy bedrooms and the family bathroom. The principal bedroom benefits from fitted wardrobes together with its own en suite shower room.

Outside
The approach is an important part of the appeal. A broad gravelled driveway provides extensive parking and turning space before leading to the attached double garage, while a shaped lawn and an established collection of trees and shrubs create an impressive, wide and deep frontage that frames the house beautifully and sets it comfortably back from Lodge Lane.

The double garage has lighting and power, a personnel door opening to the rear and houses the wall-mounted storage battery serving the property's solar panels.

To the rear, the garden is a particularly special feature and a major part of what makes this such an appealing home. Broad, level and beautifully established, it enjoys sunny southerly and westerly aspects and provides an attractive sense of privacy, space and maturity that complements the character of Lodge Lane perfectly.

Immediately adjoining the house is a substantial porcelain-paved terrace, laid in 2025 and directly accessible from the family room. There is ample room for generous outdoor seating and dining furniture, making this a natural extension of the living accommodation during the warmer months and an ideal setting for entertaining.

Beyond, the terrace opens onto a large, level lawn framed by mature trees, established shrubs and colourful planted borders. The depth and width of the garden, together with its sunny orientation and established planting, create a wonderfully restful backdrop to the house and underline the quality of the overall setting.

After more than four decades in the same ownership, this is a rare opportunity to acquire an individual home with an excellent energy rating, generous and adaptable accommodation, a superb garden and, just as importantly, an enviable position within one of the area's most sought-after residential addresses.
