A rare opportunity to acquire this much-loved, extended semi-detached character cottage in the sought-after village of Almondsbury. Built in 1909 as the gardener’s cottage for the Hiatt Baker estate, the property has never previously been marketed and has been in the same family’s ownership for an extraordinary 87 years.
Sympathetically updated and extended over time, the home now offers approx. 1,224 Sq.Ft. (113.8 Sq.M.) of versatile family accommodation, while retaining its historic charm. Extensions in 1976 created the kitchen and an additional bedroom, with a further extension in 1985 adding a utility and extra W.C. A garage and driveway were also completed around 1980, providing the incredibly rare advantage of both off-street parking and garaging in this location.
The ground floor includes a welcoming sitting room, a spacious open-plan kitchen/dining room, utility, and study. Upstairs, four bedrooms and a family bathroom provide generous space for modern family life.
Externally, the property enjoys landscaped terraced gardens with sweeping rural views toward Wales. The gardens include seating areas, mature planting, and a charming chicken coop, creating a perfect balance of practicality and enjoyment.
Location
Over Lane enjoys a highly desirable setting in Almondsbury, perfectly positioned for those seeking a semi-rural lifestyle on the margins of the city.
The village is home to the highly regarded Lower Almondsbury Primary School, within easy walking distance, while dog walks and countryside trails are available directly from the doorstep. The local community is supported by welcoming pubs such as The Bowl Inn, and leisure facilities including The Wave in Easter Compton are just minutes away.
The property is exceptionally convenient for travel, with the M4 and M5 motorway networks nearby, providing fast links to Bristol, Bath, and beyond. Both Cribbs Causeway and the historic town of Thornbury are close at hand, offering extensive shopping, dining, and leisure opportunities.
This rare position combines the best of both worlds - convenience, connectivity, and excellent amenities, balanced with the tranquillity of a rural setting and far-reaching views.
