Clevedon Road, Wraxall

An enchanting three/four bedroom former Tyntesfield Estate cottage, set within the idyllic and captivating grounds of Noah's Ark Zoo Farm. The property has a wealth of period features, well proportioned rooms, and a superb south facing garden with a hand crafted pavilion. Further benefits include a number of useful outbuildings, including a studio bedroom and ample parking.
Set within a generous plot of approximately 0.3 of an acre, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a home in a truly unique position. Thoughtfully updated by the current owners, the property retains a homely charm with a wealth of period features and a quite outstanding garden.
Approached within the secure and well-established setting of Noah's Ark Zoo Farm, there is an immediate sense of calm and privacy, with the surrounding countryside gently woven into everyday life, along with the mesmerising sounds of both wild and native animals. Despite its idyllic, rural position, the centre of Bristol lies just a twenty-minute drive away, offering an appealing balance between convenience for everyday life, access to local schools and amenities, and yet still offering a stunning rural retreat.
Inside, the house has been carefully restored and extended to create a welcoming and well-proportioned family home. The farmhouse kitchen forms the natural heart of the property—generous in scale and designed for both everyday living and relaxed entertaining, complete with a range cooker, ample dining space, and adjoining pantry and utility room.
The sitting room is warm and inviting, centred around a wood-burning stove and enjoying direct access to the garden, while a further reception room offers flexibility as a playroom, study or snug. A well-appointed shower room completes the ground floor.
Upstairs, three double bedrooms enjoy lovely views across the gardens and surrounding landscape. The family bathroom is particularly elegant, featuring a freestanding bath alongside a separate shower, while a thoughtfully designed landing incorporates a useful study alcove.
Complementing the main house is a detached double garage with a pitched roof, providing excellent storage and parking, with the added benefit of an ensuite guest suite—ideal for visiting family or independent accommodation.
Outside, the gardens are a true highlight and have been lovingly cultivated to create a series of delightful spaces. Expansive lawns are interspersed with herbaceous borders, fruit trees and an ornamental pond, while a small wooded area adds a sense of enchantment. A beautifully crafted pavilion, outdoor kitchen and raised decked areas offer exceptional spaces for entertaining and enjoying the seasons.
To the rear, a productive kitchen garden sits alongside a greenhouse, cold frames and raised beds, with additional features including a storage barn, wood store and poultry enclosure—perfect for those seeking a more self-sufficient lifestyle.
Altogether, a wonderfully complete home, offering charm, space and a deeply appealing connection to its surroundings.
Situation: The valley of buzzards! Wraxall is one of the most sought after rural villages in the area, set in unspoiled open countryside, but only a few miles from Clifton, 7 miles from Bristol city centre, and the cities of Bath and Wells also within easy reach. The nearby town of Nailsea offers a comprehensive range of amenities, including a pedestrianised shopping centre and good schooling. There are many private sector schools in the area with transport to several of Bristol's major schools to and from the village. Wraxall is ideally placed for the commuter, with junctions 19 and 20 of the M5 within 6 miles and a mainline rail connection available from Nailsea & Backwell Station, less than 3 miles away. Bristol International Airport is just 6 miles away, very convenient for business and pleasure flights but the village does not suffer from air traffic as Wraxall is not under any main low level flight paths. There are good sporting and recreational facilities nearby, with various sports centres and three country clubs within almost as many miles. Several challenging golf courses are at hand including Bristol & Clifton, Long Ashton, Tickenham and Clevedon. Sailing and world class fishing is offered at both the Chew Valley and Blagdon Lakes, a number of well established equestrian centres are located nearby and the Mendip Hills and vales of North Somerset are famed for some of the loveliest walks in the region.
