Description
Occupying an idyllic rural setting in the peaceful hamlet of Earthcott Green, this beautifully restored, much improved and sympathetically extended semi-detached period cottage enjoys exceptional manicured gardens extending to approx. 1.3 acres and is sold with no onward chain. Offering an enviable balance of countryside tranquillity and everyday convenience, the property presents a fantastic opportunity to embrace a quintessential rural lifestyle, whilst remaining within easy reach of Bristol and the surrounding market towns with superb privacy, thanks to electric vehicular gates, a wraparound plot and stunning countryside vistas.
Believed to date from the early 1800s, Maytree Cottage has been thoughtfully enhanced over the years, seamlessly combining period character with contemporary comfort. Rich in undeniable charm, the accommodation retains an abundance of original features, complemented by stylish modern finishes and contemporary design throughout. The ground floor offers two elegant, and notably versatile reception rooms, each centred around a characterful wood-burning stove, creating warm and inviting spaces for both relaxation and entertaining. At the heart of the home lies a superbly spacious L shape open-plan kitchen/family/dining room, beautifully appointed with bespoke modern cabinetry, sociable island unit and generous space for entertaining and family gatherings. A practical utility room and contemporary shower room add further convenience, whilst the light filled dining space enjoys an open aspect over the grounds, with glazed doors opening directly onto the terrace and gardens beyond.
The first floor continues to impress, offering three well-proportioned bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with a stylish refurbished en-suite shower room, alongside a beautifully re-appointed family bathroom finished to a superb standard with sumptuous freestanding tub.
The picturesque gardens are a particular highlight, thoughtfully landscaped to provide year-round interest and a variety of delightful outdoor spaces. A generous seating terrace enjoys uninterrupted views across the adjoining paddock and the surrounding countryside, creating a wonderful setting for outdoor dining and pursuits. Meandering pathways lead through mature planting, beneath established trees and past a tranquil pond, revealing a fabulous kitchen garden, charming summer house, potting shed, storage shed and a dedicated gym. Beyond lies an impressive workshop incorporating a music studio; a truly exceptional and versatile space offering excellent potential for hobbies, creative endeavours or home working (further details available upon request). The workshop enjoys direct access to the adjoining paddock, with a secondary driveway providing independent vehicular access. To the side of the cottage, a substantial level lawn (subject to agricultural restrictions) complements a secure gravelled parking courtyard, accessed via electrically operated timber gates and providing ample parking together with a double garage/workshop and adjoining carport. The attractive, yet unassuming property, combines timeless period appeal with outstanding outside space and exceptional versatility, making it a truly special home that offers a peaceful retreat without compromising on connectivity or convenience.
Earthcott Green is a delightful rural hamlet within the parish of Alveston, nestled between Latteridge and Rudgeway amidst scenic Gloucestershire countryside. Surrounded by an extensive network of country lanes, bridleways and open farmland, the area offers an enviable lifestyle for those seeking peace and outdoor recreation. Despite its wonderfully secluded feel, the property is exceptionally well connected. The nearby A38 and M5 (Junction 14) provide swift access to Bristol, whilst the thriving market towns of Thornbury, Chipping Sodbury and Yate offer an excellent range of independent shops, supermarkets, cafés, restaurants, highly regarded schools and everyday amenities.
