Property description
The Old Forge is a newly built property in a small development of two brand new houses, and is conveniently situated between Mangotsfield village and the open countryside.The Old Forge has recently been built by the current owners to an exacting standard throughout, providing buyers with a turn-key opportunity to move straight in, and enjoy the space, natural light and flexible family layout. The property was one of the finalists in the 2015 West of England Local Authority Build Control Awards. With the emphasis on the low carbon footprint, there are several energy efficient features which include an air source heat pump and heat recovery system. Throughout, the attention to detail is key, with four sets of French doors leading to the side and rear gardens, (ideal for sunny family days and entertaining), living accommodation that opens from one room to another, a fully integrated kitchen fitted with soft closing base and eye level units, a central feature island and a breakfast area.Opening up from the living room via glazed oak doors, as well as accessed via the kitchen is the dining room, ideal as over flow for entertaining guests. On the opposite side of the hallway is a generous study, snug or children`s playroom. In addition there is a well-equipped utility room with a side door into the garden, a good sized coat cupboard and an attractively finished cloakroom, complete with low level w.c and wash basin.Upstairs the high quality of workmanship remains, accessed via a stunning staircase with a glass balustrade and oak finished stairs. This leads to a very light and airy open landing with roof lights and a potential snug. All four bedrooms are double, and offer both space and height with vaulted ceilings and three of the four have views of the garden and neighbouring woodland. The master bedroom has an en-suite shower room; whilst a superbly appointed family bathroom serves bedrooms two, three & four.
