The Ripple, Tickenham, Clevedon, Somerset, BS21

A wonderful family home on the Wraxall/Tickenham border with a superb 41’ games room, scope for an independent annexe and a delightful large garden with far reaching views.

Description

Lyncroft it tucked below the Clevedon Road in a little known but charming small private lane on the cusp of delightful countryside yet perfectly placed for very swift access to Clifton, Clevedon and the popular Downs’ School.

In total, the grounds are approaching 0.5 acre with a delightful garden to the rear being a special feature of this relaxed and comfortable home. A huge entertaining terrace is set above the expansive lawned garden which includes a much sought after outdoor kitchen area with a wood fired pizza oven and the perfect spot for barbecue parties with family and friends.

In 2020, the owners transformed the property by adding a most impressive garden room that offers a range of uses – in its current guise, this is used as a superb entertaining area with bifolds opening to the rear - others may choose to create a huge fitness suite or perhaps an independent living space for a family member as there is already a shower room at this level and all services in situ.

Being nearly one hundred years old, the property offers a good deal of the original character and proportion coupled with a light modern touch throughout and larger contemporary open plan family spaces. The sitting room is bright and triple aspect with a large bay window flooding the room with afternoon sunshine and the majority of the first floor bedrooms enjoy commanding views to the rear. The principal bedroom is ensuite and the well appointed family bathroom has another shower in addition to the bath – as mentioned, a third shower is located at the lower level.

A terrific open plan kitchen/dining space has been created from the original separate kitchen and dining room – a space much better suited to modern, informal family living and this links beautifully with the wide rear terrace the enjoys a sunny south eastly aspect.

Whilst the home offers plenty of space for large family living it is worth noting that a sizeable attic could provide further options to extend the accommodation yet further (subject any necessary planning permission).

In all, a first class property in a special and most convenient private setting.
