We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
Offered with NO ONWARD CHAIN, Wayside Cottage is a detached family home built from new in circa 2003 in the style of a lovely country cottage with an attractive stone façade.
This impressive looking property is accessed from Old Gloucester Road via electric gates (shared with the neighbouring farmhouse) and then down a long gravel driveway, so has a lovely approach.
Found on the Old Gloucester Road it has attractive countryside surrounds and some far reaching views from the property, yet benefits from an enviable location for commuters as just minutes drive to North Bristol and Bristol Parkway Railway Station.
The other direction can quickly take you to neighbouring villages such as Winterbourne and Hambrook which have schools, amenities, public houses and local shops.
The road networks are equally convenient with the A4174 Ring Road and M32/M4 junctions being easily reached.
The gardens are to the front of the property (there is no rear garden) where a large flat lawn comes off from the house and incorporates the gravel driveway, plus you will find a large/oversized double garage which has power and lights.
The garden is lovely and private with mature hedging which sides onto open countryside.
Once inside the house you are welcomed by a large hallway from where you access a good size lounge with a feature stone fireplace, which then leads into a study or playroom.
There is also a kitchen, utility room, downstairs WC and a separate dining room.
Upstairs has a lovely feature landing leading to a family bathroom and 4 double bedrooms, the master bedroom being a great size with an equally impressive large ensuite bathroom.
A great country house with superb access to Bristol and amenities.
The village of Winterbourne is located just a short commutable distance from North Bristol and enjoys easy access to attractive countryside surrounds, including the pretty Frome Valley Walk which meanders through the picturesque woods in Winterbourne Down.
The High Street has a selection of local shops and in addition to nursery and toddler groups there is Elm Park and Saint Michaels C of E Primary Schools, plus Winterbourne Academy (state secondary school).
There is excellent commuting to Bristol (and London Paddington Railway Station) from the village due to Winterbourne being just 2.7 miles from Parkway Train Station and 2.2 miles to the Hambrook Junction (J1) of the M32.
(M4 Junction 19). The centre of Bristol is easily reached on the M32 as is only 7 miles away directly down the M32.
