Description

This particular house was built and owned by the builder of these houses and so is unique in that its proportions are larger than similar houses and it also sits on a very large plot. These houses offer huge potential to extend (STPP) with two storeys to the side or rear and loft conversions creating very spacious five bedroom homes. This house has had a rear extension with bi-folding doors opening up onto the garden. Also to the side aspect a separate annex with kitchenette, shower room and living room also with bi-fold doors onto the garden. It also has its own private access.

Externally

Externally the rear garden can only be described as large and probably extends to 200' in length. To the rear is a woodland area which used to be a golf course and is a now a great dog walking park with coffee house. The garden is mainly laid to lawn with established beds, shrubs small trees and fruit trees. There is a further stone built garage in the garden with access to the front driveway, although not wide enough for a car to access it. To the front is a driveway with parking for two cars and a small lawn area.

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.

Stamp Duty

There could be £31,250 Stamp Duty payable upon completion.
