Property description
The village of Winford lies within the Chew Valley about eight miles south of Bristol. It has a thriving community with a primary school, public house, church and a village store/post office. Old Hill is a hamlet of interesting properties, surrounded by agricultural land about 1.5 miles west of the centre of the village, which can be accessed via shortcuts through public footpaths.
Bells Barn was thoughtfully converted from an old detached stone barn in the 1990's and has never been sold on the open market before. It has current planning approval and accompanying architect's drawings for an impressive extension of both the upstairs and downstairs accommodation, should the new owner wish to expand. It has mellow stone elevations with stone window sills under a pantile roof. It is situated in a rural setting along a single track no through private road, off which are four properties.
The comfortable interior has lovely views over the surrounding countryside, particularly from the sitting room, study and the first floor. There are wood effect floors on the ground floor. The attractive sitting room has a natural stone faced wall with a central floor to ceiling brick chimney breast fitted with an open fire, and an open archway leads into the kitchen/ breakfast room with one exposed brick wall. The kitchen is well fitted with a range of units, wood surfaces and an integrated Rangemaster cooker. The kitchen opens into the utility room with a stable door to outside. Off the entrance hall is a bedroom, cloakroom and a study or bedroom at the front of the barn which overlooks the drive to the paddock. The accommodation is extremely flexible on the ground floor. The study/dining room could be used as a bedroom, study or both, still offering a kitchen/living/dining area on the same floor.
The first floor has two double bedrooms and a bathroom.
Outside
Bells Barn is approached through a five bar farm gate and over a cattle grid, giving access to a drive sweeping past the barn to a generous parking area providing parking for several vehicles.
The garden lies principally to the rear of the barn and is laid to grass interspersed with mature trees including apple.
The Land
Lying to the west of the drive is a vehicular access opening to the adjoining paddock with a timber two stable block with overhang and an integrated tack/feed room. The paddock also has a secondary vehicular access from the private road.
The paddock amounts to 2 acres. In all the property amounts to 2.5 acres.
Directions (Postcode BS40 8DX)

road is seen along on the left-hand side. Turn left. Bells Barn is seen as the first entrance
on the left-hand side, after about 0.2 mile.
