Langdale Cottage, is nestled near the foot of Ashton Hill in the village of Corston. Once a pair of cottages built in the 17th Century, later joined together and more recently extended, creating a wonderful rural retreat.
The property has been improved within recent years and the gardens surrounding have received years of skilled landscaping creating a beautiful space to enjoy.
The property is only four miles west from the Georgian city of Bath, yet surrounded by open countryside and wonderful views.
The approach is warming as the elevated position draws you in, the palms give a feeling or foreign climes and you'll see the first impressions of the beautiful gardens and well appointed stone work.
The entrance hall is wide, with ample storage and a cloakroom across. The dining room in the centre is a good size with painted wooden beams. You will find steps down into the living room, complete with wooden beam, window seat and a glorious inglenook fireplace with multifuel burner.
The kitchen created more recently is fresh and modern with views to the front and side with a stable door leading to a secluded seating area, ideal for a morning coffee.
The first floor has a new bathroom suite, with black and white contemporary tiling, as well as three bedrooms. The main bedroom is of a generous size with a range of fitted storage.
Externally the gardens are a real joy. The main rear garden has so many areas of different textures backing onto open fields and filled with mature shrubs, fruit trees, sheds and a greenhouse. The patio areas maximise your ability to sit and drink in the surrounding views towards Newbridge and beyond.
The garage has power and light with home office potential and the drive way accommodates two cars with ease.
The village has a good community atmosphere with an excellent Post Office and general store, parish church, church hall and pub. The village of Saltford is just 1.5 miles away,
