THE PROPERTY
This Grade II listed early 17th century five-bedroom detached house in St Annes, known as Old Langton Court, is a truly unique property in a secluded position behind high stone walls. It?s surrounded by private gardens with abundant fruit trees, shrubs and flowers.

The house retains many original features such as an open hearth in the lounge with bread oven, exposed oak beams, a flagstone floor in the entrance hall, walls 30'' thick on average and uneven floors. Attractive Georgian wooden windows throughout the house make the rooms light and pleasant, and two have fitted window seats. Old Langton Court is steeped in history. Originally known as Brislington Farm, the property was developed and named after the Langtons (prominent Merchant Venturers and Lord Mayors of Bristol), who purchased it in 1667. The existing house is the oldest and only remaining part of what became known as Langton Court.

The property is set over three levels and offers spacious rooms throughout. It includes a recent very sympathetic architect-designed bedroom extension over the kitchen with weather vane.
At the front of the property is a single garage, with charging point for an electric car, and hard standing for off-street parking. There is fibre-optic broadband throughout the property, ideal for families and for working from home, and gas central heating.

Situated in St Annes on a quiet road, there are plenty of local walking spaces including St Anne?s Wood and Netham Park, with Nightingale Valley just a short distance away. Also close by is the River Avon, with its idyllic walks and popular local hot spots such as Beeses in Eastwood Farm Nature Reserve on one side and the Chequers and Old Lock & Weir inns on the other. Backing onto the property, on the site of the old Manor House, is The Langton, a lovely family-friendly community pub. Nearby is St Anne?s House, a vibrant community arts space. Local amenities are just a short walking distance, including a supermarket, caf? and pharmacy. The city centre and Temple Meads Train Station are within easy reach.
Upon entering the gate on Highworth Road, one encounters a long stable-brick path leading to the house through the garden. The impressive front door is to the side of the house, with a log shed around the corner and a side gate to a lane that leads to St Anne?s Park. Through the front door into the flagstoned hallway is a downstairs shower room, where the combi boiler and plumbing for the washing machine can be found. To the right is the expansive lounge, formerly the manor kitchen, with a huge open fireplace, efficient Esse log-burning stove and bread oven. Leading from the lounge into the kitchen, look up to see what may have been the ?smoking chamber? for the kitchen?s meat and fish.

The kitchen is spacious and bright, with windows framed with wisteria blossom in spring; it offers plenty of space to cook and socialise. Through the stable-style kitchen door there is access to a beautiful south-west facing side garden.
Up the stairs we encounter the family bathroom on the first floor, which consists of a tiled bath, low-level WC and wash basin with brass taps. Also on this floor are three double bedrooms, with the largest benefiting from an en suite shower.
Completing the property, on the second floor, are two further double bedrooms. Each is unusually spacious with plenty of natural light.

Very well looked after by the current owners for over 35 years, this stand-out gorgeous property is truly unique. It would be well suited to families looking for outdoor space and for their forever homes, as well as for those seeking a special property full of character and history. Call now so you don?t miss this chance to own a bit of Bristol?s history! Viewers are certainly going to fall in love with it.
