THE PROPERTY

This imposing period house of circa 3498 Sq ft is one of intriguing contrasts of both age and aspect. Set well back from the road with a very attractive façade and beautiful landscaped gardens all enjoying a south west aspect, the extremely generous accommodation is arranged over two floors with a cellar.
This very comfortable family house immediately adjoins and overlooks Thornbury Cricket Club with its large green pitch and pavilion providing the quintessential English village scene whilst to the south is a more commercial aspect of The Berkeley Vale Hyundai car dealership.
The property retains a right of way over their land and retains 4 parking spaces - refer to site map.
In addition planning permission has been granted for a new access drive into the garden and parking.

LOCATION

The property is situated in the village of Alveston close to the thriving market town of Thornbury, to the north of the City of Bristol and the M4/M5 interchange, with excellent commuting links via the motorway network and by rail from Bristol Parkway Station ( Paddington / South Wales ). The High Street offers a wide variety of shops, cafes, pubs and restaurants. Other facilities include the leisure centre, golf course and library, plus open community spaces, parks and sports grounds/clubs. The town is blessed with a number of primary and junior schools, plus The Castle secondary school ( www.castle.gloucs.sch.uk ) which is situated on the edge of open countryside close to Thornbury's Tudor Castle, now a luxury hotel.

BUYER'S PREMIUM

Please be aware all purchasers are subject to a £750 + VAT (£900 inc VAT) buyer's premium which is ALWAYS payable upon exchange of contracts whether the sale is concluded before, during or after the auction date.

GUIDE PRICE

An indication of the seller's current minimum acceptable price at auction. The guide price or range of guide prices is given to assist consumers in deciding whether or not to pursue a purchase. It is usual, but not always the case, that a provisional reserve range is agreed between the seller and the auctioneer at the start of marketing. As the reserve is not fixed at this stage and can be adjusted by the seller at any time up to the day of the auction in the light of interest shown during the marketing period, a guide price is issued. This guide price can be shown in the form of a minimum and maximum price range within which an acceptable sale price (reserve) would fall, or as a single price figure within 10% of which the minimum acceptable price (reserve) would fall. A guide price is different to a reserve price (see separate definition). Both the guide price and the reserve price can be subject to change up to and including the day of the auction.

RESERVE PRICE

The seller's minimum acceptable price at auction and the figure below which the auctioneer cannot sell. The reserve price is not disclosed and remains confidential between the seller and the auctioneer. Both the guide price and the reserve price can be subject to change up to and including the day of the auction.
