Set back from the lane behind mature planting, April Rise occupies a generous plot in the heart of Barrow Gurney. Beautifully updated by the current owners, the house combines generous living space with a thoughtful layout that works equally well for everyday family life and entertaining.
An attractive oak-framed entrance porch creates a welcoming first impression before opening into a spacious entrance hall, where the staircase rises to the first floor and doors lead to the principal reception rooms.
The sitting and dining room is an impressive dual-purpose space, flooded with natural light from French doors opening directly onto the garden. A feature stone wall subtly defines the dining area while maintaining an open feel, creating a room that is equally suited to family gatherings, formal dining or simply relaxing at the end of the day.
At the heart of the home lies the beautifully appointed kitchen, fitted with an excellent range of contemporary units, granite worktops and an extensive selection of integrated appliances including twin ovens and a built-in coffee machine. Designed with both practicality and entertaining in mind, it flows seamlessly into the adjoining family room, creating a sociable open-plan living space where large glazed doors frame views of the garden and invite the outside in.
Completing the ground floor is a well-equipped utility room providing additional storage and laundry facilities, together with a contemporary shower room, ideal for busy family life or returning from the garden.
The first floor offers four well-proportioned double bedrooms arranged around a central landing. The principal bedroom together with the second bedroom, opens directly onto a glazed balcony stretching across the rear elevation. From here, uninterrupted views across open farmland create a wonderful sense of space and privacy. Whether enjoying a morning coffee as the countryside comes to life or watching the evening sun disappear beyond the fields, it is a feature that sets this home apart.
Completing the upstairs space is by a modern family bathroom with white three piece suite.
Outside
Outside, the gardens have been carefully landscaped to provide a balance of lawn, seating areas and established planting, creating an attractive and private setting for outdoor entertaining or quiet relaxation. A greenhouse and powered shed offer excellent practical space, while extensive external lighting and power points enhance the garden's versatility throughout the year.
The garage benefits from power, lighting and an alarm system, complemented by ample driveway parking for several vehicles.
April Rise enjoys an enviable position within the popular village of Barrow Gurney, surrounded by open countryside yet exceptionally well placed for Bristol, Clifton, Bristol Airport and the wider North Somerset area. Combining a peaceful rural setting with excellent connectivity, it offers the best of both worlds for modern family living.
