Pioneer Avenue Combe Down, Bath
£650,000

Description

Properties don't often come to market in this peaceful cul-de-sac with only three having been sold in the last 10 years. With an array of styles in the road this three bedroom Edwardian property stands out as being one of the first properties to be built and retaining period features inside and out. It now also offers potential to extend the accommodation as other similar houses have done in the street. A great location bordering the Midford valley with rolling countryside views and access to the historic Shepperd's Walk which is a valley top path leading in to the heart of Combe Down village to the east and towards South Stoke village to the west.

Accommodation

As you approach the house you immediately notice the decoratively carved two-centred door arch with double wooden doors leading you inside. Once inside you are further greeted by original stained glass wooden double doors that open up onto the hallway. The hallway provides access to the sitting room, dining room, breakfast room and WC, situated beneath the stairs. The sitting room has great proportions with large stone mullion bay window to the front aspect, cornice and picture rails and decorative feature fireplace with gas fire. The dining room provides original cupboards to an alcove also with feature fireplace and a door leading you out into the garden. The breakfast room is adequate size for a table with chairs, storage cupboard and a door that leads to a storage space with further door opening up onto the front aspect. The kitchen is fitted with modern wall and floor units with worktop, inset sink, space for appliances, gas oven and extractor overhead. A door leads from the kitchen to the garden. This is one area of the property that could be extended to the rear to provide more modern open plan living, if required.

First Floor

To the first floor you find two double bedrooms, single bedroom and a family bathroom. Bedroom one is well proportioned with feature boarded fireplace and bay window to the front aspect providing some beautiful far reaching views across the valley. Bedroom two is also a double in size with boarded fireplace and windows to the rear aspect. Bedroom three is a single in size with storage cupboard and window to the rear aspect. The bathroom is fitted with bath and shower overhead with glass screen, washbasin and WC with opaque window to the front apsect.

Externally

Outside the 90' west facing rear garden is a delight with well stocked beds, shrubs and small trees. There is a stone slab laid patio area directly outside of the house and to the rear you find a wooden built shed for storage. Ideal garden for a home office to the rear as others have in the street. To the front there could be the opportunity to create driveway parking for two vehicles otherwise it is non-permit parking in the street.
