Detached house for sale in London Road, Warmley, Bristol BS30

A substantial and most impressive detached dwelling with the benefit of a separate coach house and conveniently placed for both Bath and Bristol.

Description
Approached via a secure electric gated entrance, a long driveway sweeps to the side of the property culminating in a parking area for numerous vehicles in addition to the gravelled forecourt with a double car port to the front and a separate coach house with further garaging and accommodation over set to the rear. The house certainly has a most appealing frontage with a smart stone façade, large bay windows and with generous family accommodation set over three floors.

This Victorian house was built in 1896 and has been significantly enhanced and modernised over the years and is presented in excellent decorative order throughout with a terrific flexible layout that could be adapted to create an independent ground floor living space for a dependent relative if so desired. The front door opens to a good sized hallway with modern oak parquet flooring that leads through into the large dual aspect sitting room with a working stone Minster fireplace and a pair of doors opening to the rear drive and gardens. To the far side of the hallway is a lovely formal dining room with an 8ft working Minster fireplace with an impressive maritime frieze. The same sailing ship is detailed in the stain glass window set above the front door. The large kitchen/family room has ample space for formal day to day dining and features Blue Pearl granite work surfaces with built in 2 ovens (one a healthy steam oven) and a separate range cooker with gas hob. An archway leads in to a cosy snug with double doors to the terrace and combined with the wet room next door and a good sized laundry space, an area that could easily be adapted as a granny flat if so desired.

On the first floor there are four bedrooms, one of which is currently used as a dressing room, an en suite shower room and a modern bathroom with a corner Jacuzzi bath. The stairs continue to a beautiful second floor bedroom which feels like a sanctuary at the top of the home with a stylish wet room and a further useful storage or seating area which does have restricted height but a bonus space nonetheless.

The gardens that wrap around the house offer a number of distinctly different areas incorporating the lower lawn adjacent to the drive with a large timber cabin which could be used as a home office or summer house. There is a good sized entertaining terrace set beyond the kitchen/snug and a raised gazebo area and a large koi pond at the top end of the garden with full filtration units. The coach house offers garaging for two vehicles and benefits from an independent gas central heating system with a ground floor gym and office on the first floor with a dedicated wet room. A balcony to the rear overlooks the pond. The coach house has been an excellent place for running a business and would certainly be a superb option to create independent rental income whether on short term lets or Airbnb.

Without doubt, the home offers a myriad of possibilities and a perfect choice for housing a large growing family and large scale entertaining of family and friends.
