Offered for sale with no onward chain. A superb opportunity has arisen to acquire a striking two bedroom residence within the prestigious Long Fox Manor Estate. Accessible via a private, gated entrance, a leafy, sweeping driveway invites you into this exclusive estate dating back to the early nineteenth century. The building itself is a striking architectural delight, rich in character and the history of a bygone era.
Whilst the building itself offers imposing grandeur, the beautifully established estate grounds wrap around the building with a charm and character of their own. Expansive gardens, largely to the rear aspect, compliment the estate, with landscaped terraced lawns and a range of mature trees and shrubs. The gardens can be enjoyed from each original sash window of Apartment 22, with pleasant far reaching views to both the front & rear aspects.
Located upon the first floor to the main central building, this fine apartment enjoys dual aspect views over the estate via it's beautifully preserved Sash windows. The Grade II Listed Building in which this characterful property resides is home to a selection of premium apartments, with apartment 22 offering a very nicely arranged, generous two bedroom arrangement which has been excellently kept by the current owners.
Entrance to the apartment is via the main, imposing door and hallway which leads to a light and airy staircase to the first floor. A mezzanine landing, enjoys a plethora of natural light due to the glazed atrium lantern with sole access to the apartment. Upon entering the property, a sizeable entrance hallway greets, with the current occupiers cleverly utilising this area as a home office. The living accommodation, including a lounge/diner and kitchen/breakfast room can be found overlooking the rear gardens, with the sleeping quarters, two double bedrooms set to the front. The kitchen in-particular impresses, with newly fitted units and a large selection of integrated appliances.
The principle bedroom boasts a pair of sash windows and measures an impressive 20ft in length. Completing the accommodation is a family bathroom and en-suite shower facilities benefit.
In addition to the property itself, there is as much to be said about the vast array of on site facilities for the exclusive use of the residents. For summer months, an outdoor heated swimming pool presents a very inviting offering, as does the on site tennis court and the recent addition of an outdoor barbecue and seating area. Back to the indoors, a gymnasium, sauna and hot tub can be enjoyed with the benefit of changing and shower facilities. For those seeking recreational activities, this residence comes with its very own ballroom still in situ, with a fully functional bar for those who enjoy entertaining. If this isn't enough to keep you busy, the former chapel to the far west of the estate is more than just a pretty piece of architecture, with its innovative use as a private cinema room.
Perfectly placed for commuting between Bristol & Bath, this property has much to offer to the discerning buyer. Much more than a property alone is gained when purchasing within this exclusive development.
