Description
Dating back to the early 19th century, this distinctive detached home sits peacefully on a quiet country lane, yet remains well-connected to Bristol and a range of local amenities. Owned and carefully maintained by the same family for nearly 50 years, the property has been thoughtfully extended over time, including an extended kitchen (updated 4 years ago) and the addition of a striking garden room at the rear with views across the grounds.
A stained-glass front door opens into a warm and inviting hallway, often used as a cosy sitting area, featuring a stone fireplace with a gas stove. Just off the hall is a characterful ground floor bathroom, complete with a freestanding Victorian bath, practical storage, and an airing cupboard housing the hot water tank and water softener.
From the hallway, oak flooring continues into an expansive triple-aspect sitting room with exposed beams and a large Inglenook-style fireplace that forms the heart of the space. To the rear, a walk-through study with glazed alcove and storage connects to the garden room, which has been upgraded with an insulated solid roof for year-round enjoyment. French doors lead out to a sunny terrace and beautifully maintained rear gardens.
The kitchen is a generous and sociable hub of the home, well-equipped with, gas fired Aga, AEG induction hob, electric oven, twin Belfast sink, Miele dishwasher, and an American-style fridge/freezer. Additional features include a larder cupboard, an adjoining snug or fifth bedroom, and a large rear boot room ideal for outdoor gear. This leads into a dedicated utility space with laundry appliances and a Worcester gas boiler. A small study completes the accommodation on the ground floor.
Upstairs, at the rear are four comfortable double bedrooms and a contemporary family bathroom with underfloor heating. The principal bedroom benefits from a walk-through dressing area and a contemporary style en suite wet room with high-quality fittings.
Outside, a five-bar gate opens to a paved driveway with ample parking, a full-length covered barn, and original stone-built stables. Formerly used as five loose boxes, the stables now offer excellent storage and workshop space, with potential for conversion to ancillary accommodation, subject to planning. A second barn could be converted to garaging for two or three vehicles.
The grounds are a particular highlight, with level lawns, mature trees and flower borders, a pond with fountain, and a paddock bordered by farmland. Beyond the apple trees, part of the adjoining land has been dedicated as an ecological woodland, which is now thriving. The gardens enjoy uninterrupted views of a wooded hillside and back onto an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, offering a truly peaceful and picturesque setting.
Location - Says Lane enjoys a peaceful, rural setting just off the A38, offering an ideal balance between countryside tranquillity and urban convenience. The property is located less than half a mile from a local supermarket, making day-to-day essentials easily accessible. Nearby villages such as Congresbury and Winscombe provide a more comprehensive range of shops, cafés, and services, contributing to the area's strong sense of community.
Families are well catered for, with Churchill Church of England Primary School located within close proximity. The property also falls within the catchment area of the highly regarded Churchill Academy and Sixth Form, which benefits from an additional community sports centre. Healthcare needs are met by a large GP surgery nearby, enhancing the practicality of rural living.
Commuters will find Rose Cottage perfectly positioned, with Bristol and Weston-super-Mare both within 15 miles and easily accessible by car or regular local bus services. The M5 motorway can be reached via Junction 21 at St Georges, while the M32 and M4 provide straightforward routes to London and beyond. Bristol Airport is also within easy reach, ideal for frequent travellers.
