Bristol Parkway is circa 20 min by car (11 miles) with regular trains to London, and Cribbs Causeway (6 miles) providing a John Lewis superstore, Marks & Spencer food hall as well as a Vue multiplex cinema and many other shops and facilities. Southmead Hospital is just under 10 miles away and Bristol city centre (Queen Square, BS1) just over 15 miles away.

Nearby are numerous walking, hacking and sporting opportunities with Olveston (1.8 miles) providing a village shop and butcher. Old Manor Farm Old Manor Farm is ideally situated on the edge of open countryside, yet remains within striking distance of Bristol city centre, the M4 and M5 motorways and access to Bristol Parkway train station. The original farmhouse dates from the 17th Century with later 18th Century additions, and has over the last decade or so been sensitively modernised to provide an expanse of well-proportioned living accommodation, arranged over three fl oors and perfect for modern family living. The house truly encompasses “the great outdoors” and is adaptable for families of all sizes with plenty of space both inside and out. Outside, electric gates provide access to an expanse of parking, with a detached garage and further storeroom. The grounds are fully enclosed, with a side lane (owned by the house) leading to a rear gate providing additional access to the paddock – an ideal size for a pony or a great space for children to play in and currently used to graze sheep. Internally, the house is often accessed from the rear into a delightful garden room, with a fl ag stone fl oor and underfl oor heating. This creates a fabulous party room opening out as it does to the south facing garden and with access to the kitchen, cloak room and fi tted utility room. The “Chalon” fi tted kitchen is a real feature of the house, with a dual aspect overlooking the garden and with glimpses from the side across to the Severn bridge. There is plenty of space for a breakfast table, and the kitchen island provides a great workspace. There is a four oven AGA (with a twin halogen hob for the summer months) and a walk-in fridge / larder. Running along the original front elevation of the house are three delightful reception rooms each retaining many original features. The drawing room is a wonderful size, with a stripped wooden fl oor, open fi replace and a handsome marble fi re surround. This leads into the dining room – perfect for more formal dinners and Christmas – which also boasts a fi replace and has original fl agstones on the fl oor. These fl agstones follow-in from the entrance hall, with its handsome oak staircase – and situated opposite is the snug with a fi tted wood burning stove and beamed ceiling. A delightful space to retreat to. Arranged over the fi rst fl oor are four double bedrooms, including the elegant master bedroom with a dual aspect and distant views across to Wales and the Severn Bridge. This has an en-suite bathroom and a light fi lled dual aspect. The three further bedrooms each have delightful views, with bedroom two and bedroom three having fi tted wardrobes and cupboard space. Arranged over the second fl oor is bedroom fi ve (currently a great “bunk” room for sleepovers and guests) and the exceptional attic room / bedroom six. This has in the past served as an informal offi ce space and could, subject to consent, be converted to provide further living accommodation. Outside Outside, the house aff ords just the right amount of space to families to enjoy whilst still being able to maintain. The garden is well tended with a deep paved dining terrace and BBQ area, mature rose beds and a decent lawn. This is inset with a heated swimming pool and pool house, providing changing facilities and housing the pool equipment. The pool has a secure, mechanically operated cover. To the rear is a fenced paddock, currently used by a neighbouring farmer to graze sheep. It has independent access from the rear and is perfect for a pony or just a fun space for both children and adults alike to enjoy. To the front is a deceptively deep garden with mature trees providing privacy and bordered by a handsome period stone wall, with a central pedestrian gate and pathway leading to the original wooden front door. An electric gate provides access to vehicles with hard-standing providing parking for numerous cars, as well as a detached garage, further store room and secure shed housing the oil tank.
