Family home with space to spare in sought-after spot

WITH six bedrooms, number 48 Farleigh Road in Backwell will be on the shopping list of many large families, so long as they’ve got £650,000 to spend.

Wooden floors are a feature of the ground floor, except for the dining room, where ceramic tiles are warmed by underfloor heating. Sliding patio doors open from here to a wooden deck in the back garden. In the sitting room is a bay window and a brick open fireplace, while a further reception room also has an open fireplace and a large picture window overlooking the garden.

Among the painted kitchen cupboards is a built-in electric oven and hob, oil-fired Aga and a pantry, while an inner hallway cloakroom, utility room and a bedroom with an en suite shower room complete the ground floor.

Like all the bathrooms in the house, this en suite is beautifully done out by Ripples of Clifton with a modern white suite and chrome fittings.

There are five bedrooms upstairs, two with en suites and most with built-in wardrobes or cupboards. One even has a sliding doors opening on to a balcony overlooking the rear garden, with great views of the countryside.

A tarmac driveway provides parking for up to five cars in additional to a single garage, there’s a front lawn with trees and borders stocked with roses and hydrangeas, while the south-facing back garden backs on to farmland.

There’s a wooden deck and large terrace ideal for entertaining, a lawn and several fruit trees, such as apples, pears and plums, mature shrubs and hedgerow borders, plus an ornamental acer.
