This charming, wisteria adorned, stone fronted, detached cottage in Almondsbury is quietly situated on The Hill, an almost hidden position, forming one of a number of individual properties grouped around a very attractive crescent shaped green with mature trees.
Dating back to the mid 1800’s the house is thought to have been built originally as two cottages. It has been in the same ownership since 1988 and since then has been modernised, upgraded, and extended. There are many features appropriate to the period including natural stone walls, deep windowsills, and a stone fireplace. There are tongue and groove doors with iron latch furniture and some of the floors including the dining room are laid to solid oak. The interior has a warm and friendly atmosphere and is full of charm.
The wide entrance hall has a quarry tiles floor which leads to the study, perfect for working from home, and a dining room, then on to the cosy sitting room with a fireplace at either end, one a log burning stove and the other a gas coal effect fire. The spacious and open-plan kitchen/breakfast/living room is fitted with a range of cabinets and integrated appliances including a hob, double oven, fridge and dishwasher.
The breakfast area has a Victorian fireplace fitted with a log burning stove and a French door opens to the conservatory which overlooks and opens to the rear garden. There is a large utility room off the kitchen as well as a downstairs cloakroom.
On the first floor, the principal bedroom has an en-suite shower room, there are two further double bedrooms, one of which has a walk-in wardrobe, plus a family bathroom.
Outside
The property is approached through a gated entrance drive providing parking and leads to a single garage with electrically operated roller door. Behind is a covered log store. The drive also gives access to single carport with tiles pitched roof which adjoins a formed timber garage, now providing an excellent workshop.
The magical gardens are well established and designed for all year-round colour and interest. A shaped path from the drive leads to the front of the house. There is level lawn and shaped borders and trees include a magnificent Magnolia, Holly, Silver Birch and plum. A secret garden has semi circular beds, pathways, shrubs and a pergola clad with Honeysuckle, Jasmin and Clematis.
To the rear of the cottage is a paved patio with a timber and tile garden store. Old bricks form steps and a pathway leading up to an established garden with mature plants, ornamental shrubs, timber archways with climbing shrubs and pond with waterfall. There is a kitchen and soft fruit garden including strawberries, raspberries, blueberries and redcurrants. Hard fruit include eating and cooking apple, and there are two greenhouses, one housing a mature grape vine.
The summer house is situated at an elevated position with a decked veranda and brick base terrace making this an ideal area for entertaining, and providing superb views across the channel to the Black Mountains where you can take in the stunning sunsets. Beside the summer house is an open fronted covered area and timber garden store.
Situation
The Hill is a small and friendly community, recently designated as a Conservation Area, located just off Gloucester Road in Almondsbury. The house offers brilliant access to Bristol, close to a bus stop with regular fast links to Bristol and Thornbury, and within easy reach of Cribbs Causeway, Bristol Golf Club and The Wave. The accommodation offers great motorway access, is under 4 miles to Bristol Parkway with fast train connections to London, and it is just a few minutes' drive or leisurely stroll to Lower Almondsbury, walking distance to two pubs, a Community Shop, Church, Doctor’s surgery and Dentist, as well as Almondsbury Garden Centre nearby. The property is also fantastically located for access to Almondsbury Church of England Primary School as well as Tockington Manor Independent School.
