Myrtle Cottage is a charming, characterful cottage and much-loved family home, with c. 1500 sq. ft. of space over three floors, including a kitchen/diner extension to the rear. Lovingly restored by its current owners, great care has been taken to retain its historic character using traditional materials and styles, including lime plastering and period style, double-glazed, wooden windows.
The front door of the property opens into the full-width sitting room, which is 24’ x 12’ (7.31m x 3.80m) and features exposed beams and floorboards, sash windows with window seats and an inglenook fireplace with a log-burner.
Beyond the sitting room is the hallway, which leads to a downstairs WC to the right, the stairs to the first floor to the left and the kitchen/diner to the rear. The kitchen diner features a vaulted ceiling, Aga, Belfast sink and traditional red quarry style tiled floor. Steps beyond the kitchen area lead to a raised dining area. To the side of the kitchen is a door to the utility room, which leads outside, to an external garden store and steps up to the rear garden.
On the first floor, there are two bedrooms with sash windows and window seats, one with a built-in wardrobe, and a good-sized bathroom, with exposed floorboards and a claw-foot, roll-top bath with shower over.
On the second floor, there are two further bedrooms, a single bedroom and the largest bedroom, with built-in cupboards.
Outside, there is a fabulous rear garden, which includes a large glass garden room with log burner, wood workshop with light and power and a greenhouse. There are various fruit trees and bushes, including apples, pears, plums, redcurrants and blackcurrants, as well as multiple herbs and two raised vegetable beds, as well as a pond and lawned area.
Location
Long Ashton is particularly well-positioned, between the city of Bristol and the open countryside of North Somerset. The village is surrounded by fields, woods and golf courses. It also benefits from a David Lloyd Leisure Complex and the Ashton Court Estate at one end of the village, and at the other, Gatcombe Farm Shop and Ashton Hill.
Residents enjoy the convenience of a local Post Office, pharmacy, doctors, dentists, hairdressers, barbers, vets, Co-op supermarket, three/four pubs, the renowned Little Tipple, The Old Library (now a modern cafe/bar/pizzeria) and a local bakery.
There are two highly regarded primary schools within Long Ashton (Birdwell Primary School and Northleaze Primary School), as well as a choice of independent schools and secondary schools within easy reach.
The Long Ashton Village Hall, Café and Community Centre provide a hub for community activities/groups and a venue for the village market. Plus, there are playgrounds, a football pitch, a bowling green, tennis courts and a cricket club, along with local parks and woodlands to enjoy.
Bristol's Harbourside is only 2 or 3 miles away, while Clifton and central Bristol are only 3 or 4 miles from Long Ashton.
This is a fantastic location, between the city and the countryside, with a thriving village community and plenty of village amenities, yet so close to the wonderful city of Bristol!
