Farleigh Hills is an individual, architect-designed detached home set on an elevated plot in the heart of Barrow Gurney. The split-level layout makes excellent use of the site, delivering a large L-shaped sitting room with expansive countryside views, a separate dining room, snug, study (or potential fifth bedroom) and an oak-fitted kitchen. Mature private gardens, a gated gravel driveway and a large integral garage add practical outdoor living and parking space for a family.
The house dates from the 1960s and retains character features such as a stone fireplace and copper hood, but some areas will benefit from updating to meet modern efficiency and aesthetic expectations. The property is heated by an oil-fired boiler and currently has an EPC rating of D; future buyers should budget for ongoing running costs and possible energy improvements.
Location is a major strength: a quiet village lane, easy walking to open fields and local amenities, with Bristol, Clifton and Bristol Airport within a short drive. Good local schooling and low crime levels make this a sensible choice for families seeking countryside life with commuter convenience.
Important practical points: the split-level design involves multiple short flights of stairs which may not suit limited mobility, council tax is noted as expensive, and the age of the property means buyers should expect some maintenance and potential refurbishment work.
