Description

A rare opportunity to acquire detached character home with connections to the Winterbourne & Watleys End hat making industry of the 17th Century.

Dating back to 1770 this handsome detached Georgian home has a rich history in the local hatting trade and has connections with the affluent Rickards & Morris families of London and later, local hat maker George Howes, as part of his 6 acre estate supplying the Bristol hat trade.

A few large strides across a flagstone path between two strips of well manicured lawn and into the large boot room/porch, which acts as a seamless transition from public to private quarters, as well as a great place to kick off your muddy walking boots after a stroll along the nearby Frome Valley walkway. On your left, there is a discreet downstairs cloakroom, and on the right some cleverly hidden storage for the entire families coats, jackets and wet weather gear.

Moving into the entrance hall and turning right, the large living room retains many if its period features, including a sash window, fireplace, ceiling cornicing and rose. French doors open effortlessly out onto a rear patio allowing for a natural air flow during the warmer summer months.

Following the entrance hall down to the rear of the property, the rear boot room provides a practical location for wet and muddy dogs, but also doubles up as a sun room to observe the garden during the winter months, and has scope to be converted into a formal orangery.

Opposite the living room, the formal dining room comfortably accommodates a large table and 8-10 chairs for the larger family occasions and a multi-fuel burner provides a focal point within the original fireplace.

An opening from the dining room leads straight into a farmhouse style kitchen which comes complete with a number of wall and base hung units, an integrated dishwasher, and recesses for an American style fridge/freezer and range cooker. A large sash window provides unobstructed views across the garden.

Completing the ground floor accommodation is the study/home office, which is tucked discreetly off the back of the 470sqft workshop/garage.

Heading up the stairs to the first floor, five double bedrooms are complimented by a recently refitted and fully tiled family bathroom, which has a bath, walk-in shower, W.C. hand towel rail and vanity unit.

The master bedroom, which spans the full width of the workshop/garage has it’s own private en-suite shower room, exposed original beams and discreet under eave storage for all of your occasional items.

Hidden below the ground floor accommodation at basement level are the media room, studio and wine cellar, a fantastic space for a teenagers band practice, or for a movie night as a family.

Outside of this imposing detached property is the fully enclosed mature rear garden, which has a large rolling lawn, and a number of established bedding plants and shrubs. The large patio area has hot and cold water taps, outdoor power and an elevated view of the neighbouring countryside. Two outbuildings provide watertight and secure storage for all your gardening tools and outside toilet for convenience whist entertaining.

Also at the rear of the property, and within the title plan is a large private Tarmac driveway providing off road parking for several vehicles to compliment the permeable gravelled driveway at the front of the property.

The workshop/garage has large barn doors providing easy vehicular access, and is a fantastic storage facility for the families camping gear, golf clubs and bicycles.

Winterbourne is located 8 miles outside of Bristol and has a real community feel. On the neighbouring Flaxpits Lane there is a little run of local shops, a post office, coffee shop, salon, and pharmacy. Winterbourne is also surrounded by lots of great walks on the nearby Frome Valley Walkway and fields.

Yate railway station is 2 miles away with regular services into Bristol Temple Meads and motorway access is at Junction 16, M5 for Aztec West within 5 miles.

Southmead Hospital can be reached within 8 miles and the area is well catered for in the way of schooling, with a number of Ofsted rated ‘Good’ and ‘Excellent’ schools within 1 mile.
