This charming double bay-fronted Edwardian terraced property is being offered for sale with no onward chain. The property sits in a lovely position overlooking The Firs Field directly opposite, with a secluded southerly rear garden.
A spacious bay-fronted sitting room to the front is presented with an attractive cast iron fireplace and double-glazed sash windows. The second reception room, currently used as a music room, has a cast iron period fireplace with alcove cabinets either side and a glazed door into a utility/conservatory with a double-glazed roof and doors to the extended kitchen-dining room and the rear garden.
The kitchen can also be accessed through the hallway, and a particularly nice feature of the ground floor is the French doors to a sun deck, ideal for morning coffee or a cheeky late afternoon G&T. Period features in the kitchen include a side dresser, Ashlar chimney opening and surround, and both sash and casement windows. The flooring is a combination of travertine tiles in the kitchen and pine floorboards in the dining area, adding to its charm.
Upstairs, the bay-fronted main bedroom to the front spans the full width of the property, offering a lovely outlook over the parkland opposite. There are two further double bedrooms and a bathroom on this floor, with period fireplaces in all three bedrooms. The loft was converted in 2006, providing a fourth double en-suite bedroom with double-glazed sash windows to the rear dormer and a Velux window to the front. A particularly nice feature of this room is the vaulted ceiling with exposed beams and red brick chimney stacks. The stairs to the fourth bedroom benefit from a Velux window to the rear of the property, with access to a large storage area.
Externally, a walled, south-facing rear garden is mostly lawned, with gravelled beds and shrub borders. A secluded seating area to the rear provides welcome shade under the canopy of a beautiful silver birch tree, with gated rear access to a service lane/footpath.
Combe Down's position to the southeast of Bath offers a countryside feel, including National Trust woodland walks at Rainbow Woods, with beautiful Cotswold valleys and quintessential villages to the south. There is a wide range of amenities for day-to-day life, including a doctor's surgery, dentist, deli, garage, supermarket, and rugby club. Local schools include Combe Down and Mulberry Park Primary Schools, Ralph Allen Secondary, with private education available at Monkton Prep and Prior Park College. St Gregory's, Hayesfield, and Beechen Cliff secondary schools are all within 3 miles. Bath Spa train station is within 1.7 miles. The frequent No. 2 bus, with stops on North Road (the main road at the end of The Firs), will take you down the hill into town. The Firs Field, directly opposite the property, makes this a great location for families.
