Combe Road Combe Down, Bath
£400,000

Description

This deceptively spacious two bedroom mid-terrace property is located in the heart of the village and provides a great opportunity for someone to modernise and potentially extend. To the ground floor is a good size sitting room, with south facing bay window, which opens up onto the dining room. The kitchen is fitted with modern wall and floor units with worktop, inset sink, gas hob, electric oven, fridge and freezer. This type of property lends itself to being extended to the rear to provide a nice size kitchen dining area. To the first floor the south facing main bedroom is a very good size, with the second bedroom also a double bed sized room. The family bathroom is a very good size with walk-in shower, bath, washbasin and WC. Some utilise this space as a third bedroom and bathroom. From here you could look to extend into the roof space, as a number of houses have already in the terrace, with a dormer to the rear and Velux to the front. Once done you could achieve views across the valley and towards the Westbury White Horse. Externally to the rear the property has a stone laid courtyard garden area with detached stone-built garage. The garage is accessed via a lane from Combe Road Close behind. You could look at removing this garage to provide off-street parking and freeing up more garden space. A great investment opportunity and ultimately could be a three storey three double bedroom residence in an ideal location in the village.

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.
