Located in the picturesque village of Marksbury, just a 15-minute drive from Bath, this Grade II listed extended gem, dating back to the 17th century, beautifully blends history with modernity. The property also includes The Forge, a one-bedroom annexe originally developed as self-contained accommodation and now operating as a successful holiday let. Chulmleigh Cottage, the main residence, spans two floors and encompasses four spacious double bedrooms. The master bedroom offers an en-suite shower room and a charming dressing area while a generously sized family bathroom invites relaxation with its delightful bath and shower facilities. Significant enhancements in the 1990s brought about substantial expansions; highlights include a light-filled, high-ceilinged dining room, seamlessly connected to the garden. A two-storey extension introduced a hall, convenient downstairs cloakroom and utility room, and an additional double bedroom accessible via a relocated staircase – this room boasts direct access to the upper garden level through French doors. The owners' attraction to the property was immediate: ‘we were drawn to the distinctive style and age that make it unique and the meticulous renovation and extensions carried out by previous owners which enhanced its welcoming and cosy atmosphere.’ Outside, the rear garden delights with mature trees and shrubs encircling a secluded lawn: ‘the outdoor space features three terraced areas, each boasting a distinct character and space to enjoy eating al fresco.’
‘A tucked-away terrace adjacent to the main bedroom offers a serene escape, linked by a sloping path from the main garden to the first-floor bedrooms.’
‘A paved area alongside the house provides off-road parking for one or two cars, complete with a wood store and a spacious stone-built shed. Electric wooden gates offer security.’
‘The house's thoughtful layout and warm ambience have made it a cherished haven for the family, offering space, privacy, and warmth.’
‘The property’s standout feature lies in its timeless charm, with sturdy stone walls, stone or tiled floors on the lower level, and three sets of French doors connecting indoor and outdoor spaces.’
‘The local community is helpful and friendly, with neighbours offering assistance when needed and the village hall hosting frequent community events.’
‘Within walking distance, the property enjoys convenient local amenities, including a thriving primary school, inviting country pubs, a Co-op, and a petrol station. Buses take secondary pupils to schools in Keynsham and Bath.’
‘Nearby Newbridge Park and Ride further enhances accessibility to Bath's exceptional attractions.’
