Do you dream of the riviera lifestyle but still want to be close to Bristol and all it has to offer? This stunning home in the village of Saltford, which lies between Bristol and Bath on the River Avon, might be just the ticket - if you can afford the £1,350,000 price tag, that is.
Sheldrake is a detached, contemporary-style home which was originally built in the 1980s but has been reimagined and renovated over the past 20 years or so by the current owners. The property is situated well above the river, enjoying superb riverside views across open countryside towards Kelston Roundhill.
The internal accommodation of the house is cleverly inverted so that the main living accommodation is on the upper floor, taking full advantage of the views. The property boasts four double bedrooms, three of which are served with en-suite bathrooms, along with a family shower room.
The rear garden is formed in three terraces with an attractive sheltered courtyard immediately to the rear of the property, and a paved sun terrace providing an ideal area for outdoor entertaining. Steps then lead to a large timber decked terrace from which superb uninterrupted views of the river and surrounding countryside can be enjoyed.
Davies & Way, who are marketing the beautiful property, said: “Saltford is an excellent strategic location between the cities of Bristol and Bath, offering a range of village amenities and excellent local schools, both the village primary school and Wellsway at Keynsham. The cities of Bristol and Bath are within easy reach by road and public transport.”
