3 bed detached house for sale

Old Gloucester Road, Winterbourne BS36

A beautifully maintained and loved detached country cottage (formerly a Turnpike cottage) with a semi-rural position, surrounded by picturesque open fields. Owned for 17 years by the sellers who over time have substantially extended and improved the property which now offers a fantastic oak reception room looking over a beautiful rear garden plus a triple garage which has a one bedroom annexe / guest accommodation / 'work from home space' over it. We are informed there is also permission to convert the garage section below into a home for an independent relative if wanted. Just a short drive from the cottage will take you to the villages of Winterbourne and Frampton Cotterell so amenities and schooling are close at hand. The accommodation in brief comprises of a feature oak beamed lounge, large dining room, study, downstairs WC and beautifully fitted kitchen with larder cupboard. Upstairs has 2 double bedrooms and a bathroom. On the outside there are private gardens that are well tended and include a Victorian style growing/green house. The annexe is accessed by an outside staircase with small balcony area which then leads into a lovely light open plan room with its own small shower room and WC. Underneath a large triple garage with 3 oak double doors leading into a fabulous workshop as well as providing secure parking at home. The property has also had a replaced Klargester system (private drainage) installed circa 2022, plus it was re-roofed circa 4 years ago. North Bristol and Parkway Railway station are easily reached as are the nearby towns of Yate, Chipping Sodbury and Thornbury - ideal for 'big shops' - whilst the M4 and M5 are easily accessed from M5 Junction 16.

The village of Winterbourne is located just a short commutable distance from the North East of Bristol and enjoys easy access to countryside surrounds, including the pretty Frome Valley Walk which meanders through the picturesque woods in Winterbourne Down. The High Street has a selection of local shops and in addition to nursery and toddler groups there is Elm Park and St Michaels C of E Primary Schools, plus Winterbourne Academy (state secondary school). There is excellent commuting to Bristol due to Winterbourne being only 7 miles from Bristol City centre, 2.7 miles from Parkway Train Station and 2.2 miles to the Hambrook Junction (J1) of the M32. (M4 Junction 19).
