Property for sale in Bristol BS31, 5 Bedroom

Stone built barn conversion, 4500 sq. Ft, with four bedrooms, three bathrooms, two reception rooms and a one bedroom annexe in idyllic rural setting with stunning country views in the tranquil hamlet of Burnett, 6 miles from Bath and 8 miles from Bristol.
The vendor says: “The beautiful views over the Mendips, sense of space and gorgeous gardens were the major draw to this property. The distinctive design with the turret is very unusual. The period barn was converted in 1986 by the architect John Bartram for the owners who were inspired by French chateaux, so there is a distinct French feel to the property.”
She continues: “We opened up the hallway, so now the first room you come into is a grand statement; with a central oak staircase rising up to the first floor and exposed oak ceiling timbers complemented by limestone flooring. I have many favourite rooms in the house: I love sitting in the window seat of the bow window in the dining room, looking out over the garden. There are French double doors opening outside from this room. The sitting room is very cosy in winter with the cast iron wood-burner and lovely stone fireplace. The kitchen works very well for us: It is a handmade kitchen with central island unit with granite worksurface and a black two oven Aga. There is a door out to the garden, stone mullion windows and window seating.”
“Upstairs there are four double bedrooms. All the rooms have beautiful country views, and the master has a dressing room and en suite bathroom with Victoria and Albert free standing roll topped bath, walk in double power shower and steam shower with multi jets and limestone tiling. Two of the three other double bedrooms have en suite rooms.”
“The annexe is very pretty. Although it is attached to the house it has its own access and overlooks the garden. It has one bedroom, a sitting room, kitchen and shower and has been a very successful holiday let.”

“Outside the gardens are laid to lawn, with terracing, rockeries, shrubs and flowerbeds. There is also a double garage. It is very quiet sitting out here and a lovely place to relax in the sun and soak up the views, with a glass of something chilled.”

Keynsham station is 2.9 miles away, with a good service to Bath Spa and Bristol Temple Meads. Keynsham has a Waitrose and Tesco’s and the well regarded Wellsway school. Georgian Bath is 6 miles away and vibrant Bristol 8 miles distant. Bristol Airport is also within easy access, 11.4 miles away. The vendor says: “It is very peaceful here in this beautiful house in a quiet village with good neighbours, but excellent transport links to two exciting cities.”
