Description

This appealing 1930s cottage, nestled on a spacious corner plot, offers significant potential for extension and modernization. Originally constructed in 1932 as part of a row of red-brick homes for nursing staff, this end-of-terrace property benefits from side and rear access, ideal for expanding living space. Located in a tranquil area just off Wild Country Lane, the house features a bright kitchen-diner that was remodeled 22 years ago to create an open-plan feel. The kitchen showcases handmade wooden lower units and beech countertops, alongside modern conveniences like plumbing for appliances and a traditional fireplace awaiting a woodburner installation. The property's unique character is further accentuated by its original terracotta flooring and stripped pine doors. The living room provides a cozy retreat, while the entrance hall adds charm with its original tiles. Upstairs are three bedrooms complemented by a family bathroom featuring essential amenities. Surrounded by picturesque woodlands and pastureland, this home lies within Bristol's rural greenbelt, offering easy access to nearby villages with community services and amenities. The south-facing garden is not only expansive but also yields an array of fruit from established trees and raised vegetable beds. Additionally, there is an insulated outbuilding at the garden's end that presents possibilities for conversion to an office or crafting studio, with potential planning opportunities for further development on its footprint. With ample outdoor space and charming interiors ripe for modernization, this property represents a fantastic investment opportunity in a sought-after location.
