Property description
A detached 3/4 bedroom cottage on the edge of Long Ashton, approximately 4 miles from the centre of Bristol surrounded by open countryside & woodland. This pretty period cottage has been extended over the years and offered for sale for the first time in 45 years. The property is set in an ample plot with close proximity to the Long Ashton Golf Club and the Ashton Court Estate.
Situated towards the top of the hill in Providence Lane, this very special property can be found on the right hand side as you proceed towards the top of the hill. Turn right into a private road and right again into the driveway of the property.
The accommodation comprises kitchen, utility room, 2/3 reception rooms and 2 ground floor bathrooms. An extension was added to the property in 1983 to accommodate a ground floor bedroom/reception room 3. This room would be suitable for an elderly parent or someone requiring ground floor living (currently used as reception room 3). On the first floor you will find 3 further bedrooms. The property benefits from double glazing and gas central heating.
Mature gardens surround the property and offer plenty of seating areas to catch the sun at any time of the day and to enjoy al fresco dining. A detached garage, carport and parking for several cars can be found to front of the property.
Long Ashton village with its shops and amenities is at the bottom of Providence Lane where there is also the local pub, The Miners Rest and the popular Spice Inn restaurant. Long Ashton is a charming village in North Somerset, just outside Bristol, surrounded by the Long Ashton Estate, golf courses and beautiful countryside. It has an abundance of local amenities to include a supermarket, post office, beautician, library and bakery. The village has a strong sense of community, with an active village hall which offers dining nights and a film club. There are several popular pubs, including The Angel and The Bird in Hand, a Cricket Club and Farm Shop. The popular David Lloyd sports centre with indoor and outdoor swimming pools is on the edge of the village.
Long Ashton has very good primary schools to include both Birdwell and Northleaze Primary Schools. For secondary education Backwell & Nailsea are a short distance away. Bristol has some of the best independent schools in the country to include: Clifton College, QEH, Bristol Grammar School, Redmaids and Clifton High School.
Bristol city centre is an easy commute by car, bus or the Park & Ride. Around the waterfront you will find theatres (including the historic Old Vic), restaurants, cinemas, museums and galleries and a wide range of shops in Broadmead and Cabot Circus. Ashton Court Estate and Leigh Woods are within walking distance of the property and the new link road to the A38 means that you can access Bristol Airport in minutes.
If you are looking to live in a peaceful location a short distance from Clifton or Bristol city centre, come and take a look at this charming property which we believe has the potential to be further extended (subject to the necessary planning consents).
