Set in an elevated, peaceful position overlooking Chew Valley Lake, The Dipping Well Cottage is a substantial detached period home dating from the 1500s, recently renovated to combine character with contemporary comforts. Original features such as deep inglenook fireplaces, stone floors and exposed beams sit alongside updated bathrooms, a fitted galley kitchen with Rayburn, and modern shower rooms across three floors.
The house provides flexible family living with three reception rooms, four bedrooms (one with ensuite) and a large first-floor sitting room. Velux windows bring natural light to the top-floor bedrooms while a utility room and generous store space add practical value. The property is offered chain free on freehold tenure.
Outside, the garden is a key asset: approximately one third of an acre of sloping, well-established lawns, borders and mature trees that deliver outstanding lake and countryside views and multiple outside leisure areas. Practical additions include a double garage, large garden store and parking for several vehicles.
Important points to note: the cottage retains some low-ceilinged/rustic rooms (notably the kitchen) and the garden is steeply graded, which requires ongoing maintenance. Council tax is described as expensive. Mobile signal is average, and the setting is rural — ideal for countryside life but less central for frequent urban commuting.
