Full Description: Set beside the river Avon in a peaceful pocket of Kelston, perfectly positioned between Bath and Bristol, this unique detached home, within its own generous grounds, offers a rare blend of convenience, privacy, and idyllic surroundings. Believed to date back to 1822, Avonside is thought to have once served as a toll house known as Counting House Wharf, giving the property a fascinating historical link. Over the decades, the house has been extended, creating a versatile home that now offers four bedrooms—two on the ground floor and two upstairs—a family bathroom, a downstairs cloakroom, a spacious open-plan reception room, a separate kitchen, and the added benefit of a double garage and off-street parking.Owned by the same family for 50 years and enjoyed by three generations, the owners say,‘The best part is being right by the river, yet elevated high enough that flooding has never been a concern.’ They add, ‘We love that you can reach Bath or Bristol in just 10 minutes either way, yet the position feels wonderfully rural. There’s a bus stop just 50 yards away in either direction, or you could even travel by boat if you wanted to!’ The house comes with its own fishing and mooring rights, making it the perfect home to enjoy a healthy, outdoor lifestyle.Outside, there are plenty of places to soak up the natural environment, from the veranda and raised deck—both with river views—to the lawns and woodland areas. Always feeling connected to nature, the owners say, ‘The terrace is a great place to sit out whatever the weather, and you can even enjoy watching the wildlife from the sitting room.’A must-see property, Avonside presents a rare opportunity for the next custodians to breathe new life into it and truly make it their own.‘Everyone is drawn to the riverside deck – it’s the best place to take guests as it has a real wow factor. If you’re lucky, you might spot the local otter.’‘The property sits within the parish of Northstoke, so it’s well connected to village life and is within walking distance of The Old Crown Inn at Kelston, The Swan Inn at Swineford and the Jolly Sailor at Saltford.’‘The location has worked brilliantly for our multi-generational family, with easy access to schools and the Royal United Hospital.’‘We will really miss the peace, the views, and this unique riverside setting.’Additional Information:Please see Key Facts For Buyers on video link/media tab.BrochuresParticulars
