Yew Tree Cottage, a Grade II listed country retreat located along a backwater position in the village of Bitton. This charming home is very attractive inside and out with present owner really enhancing the character features inside with a modern yet sympathetic style of decoration. This home has a wonderful feel about it with a rear garden of over 140 feet. Located in a conservation area it will suit those that enjoy a peaceful, rural lifestyle combined with easy access to the cities of Bath and Bristol.

You enter via the wide solid wooden door into an entrance hall with archway doors leading in the first reception room. The stone window surrounds, wooden shutters and two fire places warm you into the period features on display fused with the bright and joyful furniture. You will then see the beautiful grey slate floor running through the remainder of the ground floor, firstly leading to a highly specified kitchen with quartz work tops, then the dining room opening behind the central stair case. The sun room stretching across the rear is wonderful with tinted glass to allow all day long usage, to the side is a utility/cloakroom.
The first floor stair case leads you centrally to the main bedroom which is fresh and bright with two sash windows, giving a good sense of balance. The other two double bedrooms are also well dressed with one of them also having a wash hand basin. The bathroom is well equipped with a white suite and cream tiles.
The second floor leads to a loft room with all of the exposed roof trusses painted and this will make a great bedroom or study area we feel.
Externally the long rear garden is Westerly facing, complete with a well, out house, summer house, shed and a natural garden that backs onto further paddocks. The garden was the next project for our vendor but now a chance where you can place your own style upon it.
