Description

Originally named Rosemount Cottages this terrace of four cottages were built c.1830 for local quarrymen. This particular cottage retains many period features throughout and provides a 150' south facing garden with a double garage and external home office.

Ground Floor

You enter the property into the hallway with stripped wooden floor which provides access to the sitting room, dining room and cellar. A nice feature to the hallway is it affords a view through the house into the garden upon arrival. The sitting room is a spacious room with feature log burner fireplace with cupboards and shelves to the alcoves, sash window to the front aspect, stairs to the first floor and a door leading to the dining room. The dining room makes a great entertaining space with stripped wooden floor, feature fireplace, glazed double doors opening out on to the garden and access to the kitchen. The recently fitted kitchen is a galley style with new wall and floor units with worktop, inset sink drainer, gas hob and electric oven with extractor and integrated dish washer. Through the kitchen you enter a small utility area with space and plumbing for washing machine and dryer and fridge/freezer. To the rear you find a bathroom with bath, shower overhead, washbasin and WC.

First Floor

Stairs lead from the sitting room up to the first floor landing which divides to lead you to bedroom two or to bedrooms one and three. Bedroom one is a very spacious room with feature fireplace and full length wardrobes to the alcove, stripped wooden floor and sash window to the front aspect. Bedroom two is a good size double with feature fireplace, stripped wooden floor, full length wardrobes to one wall and sash window to the rear aspect. Bedroom three is a single room or could be utilised as a study with sash window to the front aspect and exposed Bath stone wall. It also has a licence to be used as a therapy room.

Cellar

The cellar room is accessed via stairs from the hallway. It is a very good size room that could be used as additional accommodation or storage. The ceiling height is around 7' and the room retains its original fireplace and houses a newly installed Veissmann boiler and Unicyl thermal hot water cylinder.

Rear Garden

The south facing rear garden extends to 150' in length. It provides a nice secluded stone chipped seating area to the rear of the property with wood store and small storage shed. Further down is laid to lawn with established beds, hedge, shrubs and small trees. A stone path leads to the rear of the garden where you find a long stone chipped driveway and to the rear a stone built outhouse with tiled pitch roof which has been converted to a home office. This office is boarded, insulated and has internet and power to it. Next to the rear of the garden is the stone built detached double garage which is accessed via a lane from North Road. The garage has an electric door and provides parking for two vehicles, power and light.

Notes

The house has recently been redecorated throughout. New fittings, fixtures and appliances have been installed in both the kitchen and bathroom. All electrics have been replaced throughout. Previously listed building consent was obtained to further extend full width at the rear of the house which could provide a more open plan kitchen diner. This consent has now lapsed.

Location

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.
