Full Details for 5 Bedroom Detached for sale in Bristol, BS31 :

Superb detached period home located in a secluded position on the outskirts of the popular village of Saltford. Immaculate accommodation comprises five bedrooms, four reception rooms, triple garage and outbuilding.This stunning property began life around four hundred years ago as a dairy farm, but in more recent years it has been greatly extended and modernised to create the most beautiful family home. It is situated on the fringes of the pretty village of Saltford, close to the banks of the river Avon, and is surrounded by a beautiful patchwork of farmland and countryside. It's a fabulous location that would be terribly hard to beat."I had admired this house for a long time before we actually bought it," says Helen, "as for many years I kept my horse in one of the fields." "Before we finally managed to buy Avon House we must have looked at around fifty properties," says Clive, "but each time my wife would say 'I know one which is better'! Finally I asked her to show it to me, and I walked up the drive, rang the doorbell and asked the owners if they would sell it, but they said 'no'. Every six months I would go back, until three-and-a-half years later they finally said 'yes'. We have gone on to have eight incredibly happy years in this fabulous home." Avon House has been thoughtfully and beautifully designed both inside and out, with an attention to detail that is second to none. "Since buying the house we have done an awful lot to it," says Helen. "We completely changed the layout of the upstairs, created a fantastic den for our son in the basement, installed an outdoor kitchen on the patio, and completely renovated all of the main living rooms on the ground floor. In the entrance hall, which is quite spectacular, we have had the most beautiful staircase installed. The carpenter who made it used a design that is over two hundred years old, so there can't be many like it, and he crafted it out of solid wood; it's just beautiful." "It really is a very unique house," says Clive, "in our minds nothing comes close. On the outside you get a real sense of its history, but inside we benefit from all the modern conveniences." The grounds that surround this property are every bit as beautiful as the house itself. Beyond the large patio and heated swimming pool area there is a vast expanse of beautifully landscaped lawn and three large fields. "At the entrance to the property we have huge wrought iron gates," says Clive, "beyond which is a long, tree-lined driveway. You can't actually see the house until you are half-way down, so there's a great sense of privacy and seclusion." "We are surrounded by the most beautiful countryside," adds Helen. "It doesn't matter where you are, there is always the most beautiful view. I can't imagine that there is another house in the area with such a stunning panorama." "Avon House really has been the most fabulous home," says Helen. "It's like our own little oasis. At the end of the day we can shut the gates and feel wonderfully safe and secure, and enjoy all that the house and grounds have to offer. We have the amazing views, acres of grounds to enjoy, a wealth of wildlife and it's a really peaceful environment. We benefit from this beautiful rural setting, and yet we are around ten minutes away from two major cities, both of which have so many wonderful things to offer. It couldn't be better."
