Description
Set within the sought-after South Gloucestershire village of Old Down, this attractive development plot offers full planning permission for an impressive, architect-designed detached home in a peaceful, no-through lane setting.
The approved plans provide for a spacious family house extending to approximately 308 sq m (circa 3,300 sq ft), including an integral double garage. The accommodation is arranged over two floors with the main living spaces located on the ground floor, designed to connect directly with the garden and outdoor areas.
The ground floor centres around a large open plan kitchen, dining and living space, forming the heart of the home and well suited to modern family life and entertaining, with three sets of bi-dold doors leading to the rear garden. In addition, there is a separate study or family room, a utility room, boot room/lobby, cloakroom and internal access to the double garage.
On the first floor the principal bedroom features a dressing area and en suite bathroom, while a guest bedroom also benefits from its own en suite shower room. Three further bedrooms are served by a family bathroom, creating flexible and well balanced accommodation for family living.
Planning reference: P25/02192/RVC.
