Description
Commanding a truly spectacular location, The Windmill is a unique and rare find situated on Chipping Sodbury Common and just 1 mile from the High Street. This stand-alone position boasts 360-degree panoramic views reaching across the Cotswold escarpment and even as far as the Welsh mountains. The property sits centrally within a well-established and private 1 acre plot.
Constructed within the grounds of a former windmill, the property has a colourful history originating as three cottages believed to have been built in 1771 which later became a hospital before being converted as one residential dwelling. The Windmill is available to the market for the first time in over 50 years and has been thoughtfully designed into a much loved family home. The substantial accommodation principally extends to around 4,265 sq.ft including a heated indoor swimming pool.
The ground floor configuration flows superbly well from room to room, perfect for family living and hosting guests. The entrance hall connects to a front sun room overlooking the picturesque front garden. There are three generous reception rooms comprising a dual-aspect living room with large fireplace, a versatile family room with double doors to the rear garden, and a cosy sitting room. There is a further study at the side. The kitchen/dining room is a spacious light-filled room fitted with ample units and storage. There is an adjoining utility room and downstairs WC. Across the first floor there are five bedrooms all with excellent views and a modern family bathroom. The principal bedroom has a stylish en-suite shower room and extensive fitted wardrobes. The second bedroom also benefits from an open plan style en-suite shower room.
The property has the wonderful addition of an indoor heated swimming pool (4.75m x 10m) with double doors connecting to the garden and an adjoining wet room.
The outstanding location is breath-taking the moment you follow the lane onto the common to approach the property. Accessed over a cattle grid, the drive opens to a turning circle in front of the property with a parking bay to the side in front of the double garage. The grounds wraparound the property and are screened by mature hedging trees. Laid predominantly to lawn, the gardens incorporate many thoughtfully positioned sun terraces and vibrant flower beds. The rear elevation features a magnificent wisteria over a pergola. There is a small orchard of fruit trees and a vegetable garden to the side.
