"An architect designed home with wonderful views in the heart of this popular well regarded village.

Description

Set in the heart of this delightful and historic village just a short drive from Bristol, Farleigh Hills is set close to glorious open countryside with wonderful rural views.

This small and highly regarded village benefitted enormously from the opening in 2017of the South Bristol link road that diverted the vast majority of traffic that used to pass through the centre. This has since reverted to a charming, quiet location with the added appeal of a well established public house, village green and a play area at the very heart.

Originally built in the 1960 s, Farleigh Hills occupies an elevated position, with versatile split level accommodation designed to make the most of the plot, with the house set at the end of a long driveway and surrounded by well stocked, mature gardens. School Lane is tucked away from the road with lovely walks to be enjoyed directly from the top of the lane with a footpath leading into open fields.

A central entrance porch opens into the inner hallway with an oak fitted kitchen to one side and to the rear a generous L shaped sitting room with large windows taking full advantage of the magnificent views. There is a feature stone fireplace with a copper hood and stone hearth creating an interesting focal point to the room. A separate dual aspect dining room has a glazed door to a small flight of steps leading down into the garden. From the hallway, a short flight of stairs leads down to a cloakroom, a very good size study or 5th bedroom and the snug. A further flight of stairs leads up to the light and airy half landing with a family bathroom and in conjunction with the top floor, four bedrooms, one of which is en suite.

The gardens a very well established and planted for low maintenance predominately laid out with large, neatly clipped shrubs, a lovely private seating area for outdoor dining and a gated gravel driveway and a small areas of lawn to the front and side.
