Description

A substantial six bedroom detached home set on a 0.3 acre plot in a very private location. The accommodation is in excess of 3,000 Sq.Ft. and is immaculately presented throughout making it an ideal and much loved family home. A location few know about making it an ideal secluded and peaceful retreat yet still close to all village amenities, schools and transport to the city. The house was built in 1979 by renowned local builder Cyril Beazer and has been in the ownership of the vendor since being built. Meticulously maintained over the years it has been further extended on two occasions to provide the accommodation it does today. A rare opportunity and sold with the benefit of no onward chain.

Accommodation

You approach the property across the sweeping driveway and enter through double column entrance with pediment into the house. Once inside the hallway provides access to the sitting room, dining room, kitchen, cloakroom and stairs to the first floor. The sitting room is a very spacious light room spanning from front to back with triple aspect windows. Featuring a large fireplace with decorative surround, cornice and French doors leading out onto the rear garden. The dining room affords large family dining space and has a nice addition to the rear with a conservatory allowing natural light to flood in and doors lead to the garden. The kitchen diner has a tiled flooring throughout and is fitted with modern wall and floor units with worktop, inset sink drainer, 5-ring gas hob, double oven and dishwasher. Again ample space for dining here too and doors lead to the rear hallway and utility room. The utility room is fitted with wall and floor units with worktop, inset sink, washing machine and dryer. The rear hallway provides access to the garage, rear garden and alternative set of stairs to the first floor.

To the first floor the landing spans from one side of the house to the other providing access to all rooms on either side. You find six bedrooms ranging in sizes with those to the rear of the property offering lovely far reaching countryside views and a home office room with feature fireplace. Bedroom one offers plenty of built-in storage space and an ensuite bathroom. There is a family bathroom with wash basin and WC and a shower room also with wash basin and WC at this level. The spacious integral double garage has electric roll-up doors, power, light and houses the boiler with plenty of storage space. Likewise the large loft also offers storage solutions if required.

Externally

The gardens encircle the house with the rear having a southerly aspect and the front to the north overlooking woodland. To the rear of the property is a stone slab seating area with low stone wall and bordered by shrubs with a low step leading to the garden. The garden is level and laid to lawn with established beds and trees. In the east corner sits a useful wooden storage shed and to both sides of the house are wrought iron gates leading to the front aspect. Again to the east aspect at the front is another wooden storage shed, small coal store and a log store. The sweeping in-and-out driveway to the front provides parking for numerous vehicles.

Location

This property is set in a very secluded and private location at the end of a private lane surrounded by woodland. Very few know of the existence of these three houses making it an ideal peaceful retreat. Combe Down sits on a level ridge approximately 1.25 mile (2 km) to the south of Bath city centre. It sits at an altitude of 500ft and hence has always been renowned for its clean air quality with many moving from the city for this reason. The village is adjoined to the north by large areas of natural woodland with public footpaths offering stunning panoramic views overlooking the city and equally gratifying views of the Cotswold (AONB) valleys to the south. There is simply no other village like it on the outskirts of the city with such a wide range of local amenities and schooling. This makes it a very popular place for families and those looking for an area with a rural feeling but still within walking distance of the city.

You will find every level of schooling in the local vicinity with three nurseries, two academy primary schools, Ralph Allen academy senior school and two independent schools in Prior Park and Monkton Combe, both with pre-prep, prep and senior schools. There is also Threeways School which provides for special education needs from ages 4 to 19 years. Locally there is an abundance of amenities with doctor’s surgery, Bath BMI Clinic, dentist, two pharmacies, highly reputed car garage, award winning delicatessen, fish and chip shop, hair salon, builders merchants, beauty therapist, bakery and Co-op mini-markets. On the western edge of the village is a Tesco Express with petrol station and a large Sainsburys supermarket can also be found in neighbouring Odd Down. Nearby you will also find the excellent country club spa hotel Combe Grove Manor, which provides fine dining, gymnasium, spa treatments, swimming facilities and tennis courts both indoor and outdoor. There is also a new development being built in the village called Mulberry Park. An award winning development of 700 new homes and currently becoming one of Bath’s finest, new residential communities. With a new primary school, children’s nursery, cafe and state-of-the-art leisure and business facilities, with further amenities to follow, Mulberry Park will also build Bath’s first new park for 100 years. The local bus service provides quarter hourly services during the day into the city. For the walkers among you Bath Spa station is a shade over 1.2 mile from the village and you are also afforded a plethora of countryside walks into an 'area of outstanding natural beauty' minutes from the village itself.
