3 Bedroom Detached House

Tucked away in a secluded cul de sac in the heart of the village, this bespoke detached three bedroom bungalow offers a wonderfully peaceful setting paired with an easy, everyday lifestyle. It is the existing owners’ third self designed home, and it shows in every thoughtful detail. Planned from the ground up to make daily living effortless, it includes a dedicated laundry and drying room, secondary internal doors to help retain heat in winter, and a built in water softener for added comfort. The owned solar panels have been upgraded with new inverters (complete with a 10 year guarantee).

At the centre of the home, the lounge and dining room can be opened up to create one generous, flowing space or separated with elegant folding glazed doors when a little privacy or zoning is preferred. To the front, the kitchen–breakfast room enjoys a pleasant outlook and leads through to a practical utility area, which in turn provides direct access to the covered driveway and internally to a convenient cloakroom

The rear lounge is a particularly charming feature, with twin patio doors that frame the garden. Stepping outside, the garden feels like a private sanctuary, lovingly designed and divided into two distinct areas: a relaxing, enclosed space for unwinding and entertaining, and a productive allotment style section for those who enjoy growing their own. It’s a rare combination that brings both lifestyle and purpose to the outdoor space.

Parking is generous, with a long driveway largely sheltered by a car port and open garage, making everyday comings and goings effortless. To the rear, an oversized garage with power, light and water is accessed from the front up and over door or from the rear garden via a separate door. It provides excellent workshop potential and direct access to the garden

Altogether, this is a home that blends privacy, comfort and versatility in one of the village’s most desirable tucked away settings, offering a lifestyle that feels both peaceful and well connected.

Winterbourne Down offers that rare balance of countryside calm and everyday convenience, making it one of South Gloucestershire’s most appealing places to live. The village is surrounded by rolling green landscapes, woodland paths and the dramatic setting of Huckford Quarry Nature Reserve, giving residents instant access to peaceful walks, wildlife and riverside trails. It’s a place where you can step out of your front door and feel connected to nature within minutes.

Despite its rural charm, the area is exceptionally practical. Nearby Winterbourne, Frampton Cotterell and Downend provide a full range of cafés, pubs, shops, supermarkets and local services, so day to day life feels easy and well supported. Bristol is also comfortably within reach, whether you’re heading in for work, shopping or a night out.

Commuters benefit from excellent transport links, with fast access to the M4, M5 and M32, and Bristol Parkway Station just a short drive away for high speed rail to London, Cardiff and beyond. Families are drawn to the area for its well regarded schools, including Winterbourne Academy, which adds to the village’s long standing popularity.

Above all, Winterbourne Down has a warm, welcoming community and a slower, more peaceful pace of life. Leafy streets, characterful homes and a friendly village atmosphere make it a place where people quickly feel at home
