Property Description

DESCRIPTION The tranquil setting of this property makes this semi detached cottage a fabulous purchase for those wishing for a home situated in a rural position. 

Originally the gatehouse for the manor house, overlooking an incredible cascading pond to the front, and with open countryside beyond. The house itself is in need of modernisation but offers three very good-sized bedrooms alongside a large family bathroom. The ground floor is made up of two spacious reception rooms and a separate kitchen with a vast amount of original features throughout. The exterior is equally ornate and has a large garage/workshop to the side of the property and a porch to the front.

The landscaped garden extends to the side, with its own ornamental pond and beautifully sectioned areas, full of mature shrubs and various seating areas.

Towards the bottom of the garden is an additional workshop which could be converted to be a very large summerhouse, home office or both!

There is so much scope to transform this historical property and given the location is just outside the highly sought after village of East Harptree with its fantastic primary school, this gorgeous home will suit families and retirees alike.

SITUATION East Harptree lies on the edge of the Mendip Hills with views across the Chew Valley and country walks on the doorstep. The Bath & North East Somerset village offers facilities including a community shop, public house, village hall, primary school (www.eastharptreeschool.ik.org) and children's play area. Secondary education is available at nearby Chew Magna at Chew Valley's comprehensive school (www.chewvalleyschool.co.uk). Bristol, Bath and Wells offer a wider range of shops, recreation facilities as well as private education with Bristol & Bath having good rail and motorway links. The Chew Valley comprises thousands of acres of beautiful countryside with Chew Valley and Blagdon Lakes offering sailing and fishing. The area around is well known for its beauty and offers a variety of community pursuits within a drive. Indeed, riding, walking, fishing, sailing and dry skiing are just some of the activities available within a few miles.
