Tucked away in an exceptionally private and leafy setting, this beautifully reimagined two/three bedroom bungalow offers a rare opportunity to acquire a home that feels both deeply peaceful and thoughtfully designed. The current owners have lovingly refurbished the property from top to bottom, carefully dreaming and reimagining the space as they shaped a home that would feel calm, light filled and effortlessly connected to its surroundings. The result is a truly special home where no expense has been spared and every detail has been considered to create a space that flows with ease and purpose.

From the moment you step inside, there is a quiet sense of retreat. A welcoming entrance hall leads through a layout that unfolds naturally, setting the tone for the light and openness that defines the home. A versatile reception room sits to one side, currently arranged as a lounge, offering a comfortable and adaptable space that could equally serve as a third bedroom, guest room or study.

The house then opens into the heart of the home, a remarkable open plan kitchen and living space designed around the idea of indoor and outdoor living. Expanses of glazing and wide sliding doors draw natural light deep into the room and create an ever present connection with the garden beyond. A large central island anchors the kitchen and provides a sociable focal point, while roof glazing above enhances the sense of space and brings shifting daylight into the room throughout the day. Whether enjoying a quiet morning coffee or gathering with friends, the space feels uplifting and effortlessly welcoming.

Stepping out from the living space, the garden reveals itself as a true sanctuary. Elevated and naturally screened by mature trees, shrubs and layered planting, it offers a remarkable sense of privacy while still enjoying a wonderfully open outlook. Beyond the greenery lies the Bristol to Bath Cycle Path, gently hidden by foliage and contributing to the peaceful atmosphere without disturbing the seclusion. The owners speak warmly of the abundance of nature visible from every room, with changing seasons bringing new colours, textures and wildlife. It is a setting where it is easy to forget you are still in Bristol, yet the city centre remains within easy reach at around twenty minutes away.

The bedroom accommodation lies quietly to the rear of the property, where two well proportioned double bedrooms enjoy restful views of greenery and sky. A stylishly appointed bathroom sits between them, completing the internal accommodation with the same careful attention to detail seen throughout the home.

After investing significant time and energy into creating a unique space that flows so beautifully, the owners say there is not a day that passes where they do not appreciate the calmness it brings to their lives. The connection to the cycle path, softened and obscured by trees, makes the home feel wonderfully secluded, while the outlook from every room is filled with seasonal displays and natural beauty.

Further benefits include driveway parking and a useful attached half garage, adding everyday practicality alongside the potential for further evolution. The property enjoys level access throughout, which may suit a wide range of buyers including those seeking ease of mobility as well as families looking for a long-term home. Subject to the usual permissions, there is also clear potential for a future loft conversion, offering scope to grow further into the property over time.

This is a house that will appeal to a wide audience and offers more than just accommodation. It offers a way of living, peaceful, light filled and deeply connected to nature, a true sanctuary for anyone lucky enough to call it home.
