Kingshill, Nailsea Offers in excess of £299,950

An imaginatively renovated - converted character home that blends the charm of a period village property with many of the advantages of a brand new home, probably the perfect mix.

The building is thought to date from Georgian times and over the years has been a private house, a village shop and home, for many years a smart Bistro with offices above and latterly the headquarters of a media agency before being converted to form two individual semi-detached cottages.

The cottage and its neighbour have been designed to be as energy efficient and easily maintained as possible and the property is finished to a high specification. Here at number two the attractive accommodation is a total surprise offering lovely light and space and the open courtyard area to the front will provide an area to sit as well as space to park.

The composite front door that is sheltered by a gabled porch canopy opens to the spacious double-aspect living room. The three deep sill windows allow an outlook to the front and side and natural light floods through the living space which is enhanced by the limed oak finish flooring. There is pre-wiring for a wall-mounted TV and the electrical specification is also comprehensive.

A doorway leads to the inner hall, while oak double doors open to the superb, fitted kitchen that offers an outlook to the side. There is an excellent range of wall and floor cupboards with extensive work surfaces having concealed LED lighting above.

The roomy inner hall has a quarter return staircase rising to the first floor with a storage recess beneath and a door opens to a cloakroom with a WC and a basin set in a vanity unit.

On the first floor the landing has further oak finish doors opening to the bedrooms and the shower room that has a contemporary white suite with complementary tiling and a shelved towel recess.

The bedrooms are all well proportioned with two ample double rooms and a comfortable third bedroom.

Outside:
The area to the front of the cottage provides access to the front door and allows space for parked cars and outdoor sitting space.
