A charming, detached, family home with an interesting heritage, extensive grounds and outstanding views in an area of abundant natural beauty yet within a five-minute drive of Thornbury. Originally Georgian, the house sits partially on a scheduled area known as Little Abbey Camp, a site of Iron Age and Roman historic interest. The property retains much of its period character whilst benefitting from modern upgrades by the current owners such as double glazing throughout, modern bathrooms, drylined cellar, new boiler, updated septic and oil tanks and regular maintenance of the roof and render.

The property is set back from the main road and accessed via a private lane which leads into a gravelled front drive with ample parking, a double garage (rebuilt by current owners using original stone) with electric roller doors and an electric charging point. The house is accessed via the boot room (with access to front and rear gardens) or the utility room, which has plumbing for a washing machine, a Belfast sink, space for tumble dryer and a combi boiler (5 years old). The downstairs cloakroom sits off the utility and has been upgraded by the current owners.
The kitchen/breakfast room faces the front elevation with a south and east orientation with a quadruple aspect and tiled flooring. There are ample wall and base units for storage as well as solid worktops and ample space for dining. Off the kitchen is a sizeable living room with a charming, stone fireplace. The room flows naturally into a charming garden room with a terracotta tiled flooring and stunning views over the rear gardens. Also off the kitchen is a cosy, carpeted family room / study with shelving and cabinetry, providing an excellent space in which to read, relax or work. Next door is a spacious dining room with strengthened engineered oak flooring, a dual aspect and excellent views onto the garden.

Upstairs, five carpeted bedrooms sit off the central landing, all with exceptional views of the surrounding countryside. Four bedrooms are decent double whilst bedroom five would make an ideal children's bedroom. Bedrooms one and two are particularly large, bedroom one has outstanding views over the rear garden and beyond as well as its own contemporary en suite with rolltop bathtub, mosaic tiled flooring, dado panelling and a separate shower. The second bedroom has a modern en suite shower room added by current owners. Bedrooms three and four are comfortable doubles and serviced by a spacious family bathroom with bath, separate shower and laundry cupboard.

On the lower ground level is a useful cellar which has been drylined by the current owners.

Externally, the gardens wrap around the property and include a delightful front, kitchen garden with raised vegetable beds and productive fruit bushes; an abundant herb garden to the side of the property and a secluded back garden with a large, level lawn, numerous fruit trees, a number of patios and a stone barbecue/pizza oven. Beyond the back garden is a large paddock / wildflower meadow. The grounds offer far-reaching countryside views to all aspects, including across the Severn Estuary into Wales and north to the Malvern Hills.

Set within the grounds are a number of outbuildings including a workshop, garden storeroom, greenhouse, paddock shed and an old cow byre / log store with excellent conversion potential subject to the the necessary planning consents.
