Occupying a lovely position within the former Tyntesfield Estate, this Grade II Listed semi detached home is one of Backwell’s more distinctive and rarely available properties.

Built around 1895 and designed by Walter Cave, the property has all the character you would expect from a home of this era, whilst still working well for modern day living.

The entrance hall leads through to two well-proportioned reception rooms. The main sitting room is a cosy room to the front of the house, centred around a log burner.

Currently used as a dining room, the second reception room is a really attractive space with unique dual aspect curved leaded windows and an open fireplace. A great room for special occasions, but also flexible in how you use it.

The kitchen sits towards the rear of the house and is fitted with handcrafted units, integrated appliances and a blue Aga. It opens into the conservatory and, on the opposite side, into the covered courtyard, which provides access to the utility room and French doors leading out to the garden. Both the conservatory and garden room bring in plenty of natural light and enjoy views over the garden and greenery beyond.

Upstairs, the landing is a great space in itself, with useful storage and views across the allotments towards Backwell Common — every time you pass the window, you cannot help but look out.

There are three good double bedrooms, all individual in style. The main bedroom benefits from dual aspect windows, built-in storage and an en suite. Bedroom two is another strong double with a nice open outlook, and the third is another good double bedroom. High ceilings and an abundance of detail, including picture and dado rails, give the rooms plenty of character and the house a real sense of period detail throughout. A cottage style family bathroom serves the remaining rooms.

Outside, it is clear the current owners have spent a great deal of time tending to the garden. It is mature, established and well arranged, with lawn, planted borders, a pond and a number of seating areas. There is a large patio directly from the house, with pathways and thoughtful detailing throughout. There is also a greenhouse and a timber garden pavilion, providing a sheltered space to sit and relax, along with a garden room adding further versatility.

A gravel driveway provides off-street parking and leads to the double garage, which has an electric up and over door, along with power and lighting.

Homes like this rarely come to the market. It combines character, setting and practical family space in a way that is hard to find.
