3 bed detached house for sale

High Street, Blagdon, Bristol, Somerset BS40

A perfect blend of period charm with contemporary stilling, whilst benefiting from beautifully unspoilt views over looking Blagdon Lakes, this three bedroom 'link detached' home is nestled right in the heart of the sought after village of Blagdon. Formerly the village petrol station, the property is full of surprises, most noticeably significant levels of underground carparking, that has to be seen to be believed.

In brief the accommodation comprises entrance porch, open plan kitchen/living/dining room, three bedrooms and a family bathroom. Upon entering the open plan reception space you are immediately drawn to the far end of the room where a dual aspect to the rear provides panoramic and uninterrupted views over surrounding countryside, across to Blagdon Lake and rolling hillsides beyond. A feature stone built fireplace and chimney breast is the focal point to the room, providing a contrasting pop of colour against an otherwise natural atheistic. Access is available from here out into the rear garden. The contemporary kitchen has been well stocked with wall, draw and base units finished in a matte white and chrome handles with space made available for both freestanding and integrated kitchen appliances. Completing the ground floor is a cloakroom with WC and wash hand basin.

On the first floor, bedroom one really has the wow factor against what is already a spectacular home. Three double glazed windows provide the perfect vista from which to sit up in bed in the morning and take in all of the natural beauty surrounding you right on the doorstep. Integrated wardrobes provide a good level of storage space within this generous double room. Bedroom two is an equally well sized double room with front aspect and space for freestanding wardrobes, coupled with a singular built in wardrobe. Bedroom three is a comfortable single room in size, operating as a home office for the current vendor. The chic and stylish family bathroom has been fitted with a walk in double shower unit, with tower panel electric shower, freestanding bath, wash hand basin inset upon a reclaimed timber splash back, WC and chrome towel rail. Matte porcelain tiling has been applied to all splash prone areas.

Situated on the northern edge of the Mendip Hills, Blagdon overlooks the serene Blagdon Lake. The village is characterized by charming streets, traditional stone cottages, and scenic views of the surrounding countryside. Approximately 12 miles southwest of Bristol, Blagdon offers a blend of natural beauty, historical sites, and community spirit. Blagdon boasts a strong sense of community, with various clubs and organizations, including a local history group, Women's Institute, and sports clubs such as tennis, football, cricket, and rugby. The village also has a primary school, a post office, and local shops and pubs, providing essential services to residents and visitors alike. One of the most popular haunts in the village for both locals and visitors is The Coffee Station, only a few steps away.

To the front of the property a private 'pull in' provides convenient every day parking available only to Highfield House. A natural stone wall then encloses a front garden, benefiting from a raised lawn, well stocked floral beds and Cotswold stone seating area, with patio area/pathway leading up to the front of the home. To the rear is where the uniqueness of this home truly becomes apparent. Accessed via a wooden five bar gate, vehicular access is available from the neighbouring driveway into the property’s own underground car park. Electric roller doors open into a space suitable for two cars, with further space remaining available for storage, bikes, motorbikes or gardening utensils, words will fail to do justice to just how useful and impressive this space is. Both electric light and power have been connected, presenting the opportunity to create an incredible workshop should someone require. Accessed from the living room a raised balcony area is the perfect spot to enjoy the previously mentioned views whilst participating in some 'al-fresco' dining. Steps lead down from the balcony onto a further seating area, finished with natural stone tiling providing further entertaining space. The remainder of the garden has been predominately laid to lawn, enclose by wall and fence borders with a further seating area found at the bottom of the plot.
