Situation • New Inn House is situated close to the centre of the popular and historic village of Kingswood, where in the 12th Century a Cistercian Abbey was founded. All that survives today is the 16th Century gatehouse and New Inn House is built alongside the leet which once provided water to power the Abbey Mill. • Kingswood itself is a thriving village which offers a number of amenities including a shop/post office, a pub, tennis courts, primary school and the highly regarded Katharine Lady Berkeley’s School, which is located on the edge of the village. • The charming old market town of Wotton under Edge lies just over a mile to the northeast and offers a wider range of independent shops, doctors, dentists, supermarkets and further leisure facilities. • Regional centres such as Bristol, Bath, Cheltenham and Gloucester are all within approximately 30 to 40 minutes’ drive and the M5 provides fast and direct links to the southwest, south wales and the midlands and beyond, as well as connecting to the M4 corridor. New Inn House • New Inn House is a fascinating medieval property, steeped in history and is thought to have originally served as a guesthouse to Kingswood Abbey (now demolished) before becoming an inn and later a private dwelling. • Tree ring dating carried out on some of the timbers in the house, date it from the late 15th Century but alterations have been made over the years and the front facade now has a distinctly Georgian appeal. The house and railings are Grade II* Listed as being of special architectural and historical interest. • The living accommodation, which is arranged over two floors, extend to just over 3,000 square feet and in addition to this there are extensive attics above. The property retains considerable charm and character features include a number of old fireplaces, moulded beams, sash windows, some with working shutters, and a lovely etched glass panel in the hallway, a relic from the time the house served as an inn • The accommodation on the ground floor is self-explanatory but on the first floor there is flexibility to its usage. In the past the interconnecting rooms in the northeast wing of the house have been used to create a flat/ancillary living space.
