On the cusp of the civil parish of Keynsham, this grand Victorian villa comes complete with a separate three-bed Coach House. It's been carefully converted to open up the rooms and create a flowing living space, however, the home still retains a charming period feel. It has many impressive, eye-catching features, such as open fires, bay windows with beautiful shutters, stripped pine floorboard and picture rails.
Five bedrooms are on offer in the main house, including the decadent master suits that are serviced by an en-suite and a dressing room. The property is also substantially well-linked to the bustling cities of Bristol and Bath, as the town train station is less than 200 meters away.

In the market for a townhouse with a difference? Look no further: this fantastic four-bed terraced house is located on a rather colourful street in a historic square.

High ceilings and state-of-the-art lighting create plenty of impact, while ceiling roses, cornice and original fireplaces add character. Accommodation is arranged over four levels and includes a few welcome surprises - such as two kitchens!

The Falls' tranquil spot on the banks of the River Boyd in Golden Valley is just under a mile from the village of Bitton and is simply stunning to behold.
Once you've torn your eyes away from the kingfishers and otters, head inside to check out the spacious house, arranged over two floors and boasting a games room. Alternatively, meander around to the kitchen garden, where you might also spot the tennis court, paddock and summer house.
