Description

Bond Oxborough Phillips are proud to be offering The Retreat for the first time since its creation in 1981. The property is situated in the most picturesque and quiet setting, a former barn to the Elizabethan Priory in Thornbury. This impressive residence offers versatile and spacious living, currently arranged as a 5/6 bedroom ( 1 ensuite) property with a substantial 1 bedroom annexe. The annexe does require modernisation throughout and could easily be adjusted to a 2/3 bed if needed. This flexible property would suite those looking to generate income or those looking for multi-generational living. The Retreat sits in a approximately 1 acre of mature gardens with a yard providing extensive off road parking with a double garage and stables. This property occupies a fantastic position and an internal viewing is a must to be fully appreciated, and is thought to hold development opportunities, subject to gaining necessary consents.
