Summary - 1 Rope Walk, Backwell BS48 3LA
4 bed 2 bath Detached
Spacious family house with huge garden and far-reaching rural views.
Large private plot directly adjoining protected Greenbelt countryside
Set on a large, private plot that directly adjoins Greenbelt countryside, this substantial four-bedroom detached house is arranged over two storeys with flexible living space ideal for family life. The home offers a recently refurbished kitchen with a superb walk-in pantry, a generous open-plan family/dining room that opens to the garden, plus four to five reception rooms that adapt well for home working, play and formal living.
Energy costs are unusually low for a house of this size thanks to a double solar‑panel array and an air‑source heat pump; the most recent 12‑month energy bill after feed‑in tariff was £943.76. The principal bedroom includes a dressing room and a spacious en suite shower room. From both front and rear aspect there are far‑reaching rural views across the vale to the hillsides of Wales and directly over Backwell Hill Woods and farmland to the rear.
Practical benefits include an attached double garage and utility room, sweeping drive with ample parking, and planning consent that has been partially implemented for a rear extension — consent also allows conversion of the garage/utility into an annexe or consulting room. The plot was extended previously to create a large upper garden, productive vegetable area and secluded terraces.
Notable considerations: broadband speeds are reported very slow in this area and the property sits in Council Tax Band G, which will be a significant ongoing cost. The house was built in 1968 and, while many recent upgrades have been made (kitchen, insulated sunroom roof, extension), further cosmetic updating may be desired in places by some buyers. Viewing will best reveal the scale, outlook and potential for further extension (subject to permissions).
