3 bed detached house for sale

Sleep Lane, Whitchuch, Bristol BS14

Historic barn conversion with a bold contemporary extension, superb entertaining spaces, and two private mews houses for ultimate flexibility.
Combining heritage, contemporary design, and outstanding outdoor amenities, this unique property truly offers it all.

**Overview**

A rare opportunity to acquire a beautifully restored historic three-bedroom barn conversion, perfectly balancing traditional character with modern convenience. Rich in original features, the property has been thoughtfully extended with a striking contemporary addition, creating a stunning juxtaposition of old and new that enhances both the living space and architectural appeal.

On entering, the impressive hallway immediately sets the tone, featuring its own log-burning fire. To one side is the exceptionally spacious principal bedroom, formerly two rooms and now cleverly combined into one magnificent suite. This generous space includes his-and-hers wardrobes, air conditioning, ample room for a super king-size bed, and a luxurious four-piece en-suite with roll-top bath and separate walk-in shower.

To the other side of the hallway lies the main living accommodation. The kitchen/dining room makes an immediate impression, with the original well thoughtfully transformed into a unique circular dining table. The contemporary kitchen, installed only a few years ago, features integrated Neff appliances and flows seamlessly into the spectacular main reception room.

With its vaulted ceiling, exposed oak beams and exposed stone walls, and open fire, this impressive space is full of character. A spiral staircase leads to a mezzanine level, currently used as a home office, while the reception room continues through into the modern extension, where a stylish dining room provides a wonderful contrast to the original barn.

Upstairs are two further generous double bedrooms, both with their own en-suite facilities and showcasing the property's beautiful exposed oak beams. A substantial attic storage room provides excellent additional storage and also houses the boiler.

Adding yet further versatility are two charming one-bedroom mews houses, each with its own private garden. Whether used by older children seeking independence, visiting relatives, guests, or as potential rental accommodation, these self-contained properties offer an exceptional level of flexibility and make this a truly unique home.

**Outside**

Set behind electric gates, the property offers ample parking, along with a large timber-built workshop currently used for woodworking but could accommodate alternative uses.
The converted garage has been cleverly transformed into two one-bedroom mews houses, each with its own private garden.

Behind a further set of gates, the private garden to the barn unfolds into an impressive, low-maintenance outdoor entertaining space. A large area of artificial lawn is complemented by a pergola with provision for a hot tub, while a superb all-weather timber-framed outdoor kitchen provides dedicated cooking, dining and seating areas.

The real showstopper is the garden bar, large enough for a pool table and darts board, with a projector and air-conditioned seating area, alongside a fully equipped bar with a large serving hatch that opens directly onto the paved seating area, creating the perfect space for entertaining.

**Location**

Whitchurch enjoys a convenient location just south of Bristol, offering a quieter setting while remaining well connected to the city. Local shops, schools, everyday amenities, and regular bus routes are all within easy reach.

The surrounding countryside, including the beautiful Chew Valley, is just a short drive away, providing excellent opportunities for walking, cycling, and outdoor recreation. It’s an ideal location for those seeking the perfect balance between city convenience and rural charm.
