Description

Linden Homes built this unique small development of four high-end contemporary single storey dwellings back in 2000. Appropriately named Quad Villas, being four of them, set in a private road with each property offering around a 0.3 acre level plot and spacious accommodation in excess of 2,000 Sq.Ft. The property has an immaculate finish throughout with a feeling of space and light with high ceilings and glazed doors running the length of the hallways overlooking the garden with its south westerly aspect.

Accommodation

You enter the property into the hallway which runs in an L-shape providing access to all rooms. The first room you encounter is the large kitchen diner to your right with modern fitted units with large central island, with seating, which then opens up onto a dining area with glazed vaulted ceiling allowing natural light to flood in. To the rear of the dining area a door leads you to a good size utility room with separate WC and access to the garden. Along the hallway to the left is a door to the dining room and then living room with glazed doors from the hallway opening onto the garden. The living room is very spacious with feature log burner fire place, exposed beam and two sets of glazed doors opening onto the garden. This room is opened up onto the dining room which is a great size for entertaining.

Back along the hallway to your left is another hallway with two sets of glazed doors overlooking the garden and giving access to all four bedrooms and family bathroom. Bedroom one to the end is a very good size double room with in-built storage cupboards and a large ensuite bathroom with bath, walk-in shower, wash basin and WC. The family bathroom is also fitted with a bath with shower overhead, washbasin and WC.

Externally

The level garden encircles the property and has a south westerly aspect. Directly outside of the property is a large patio seating area with the remaining garden laid to lawn with established beds, shrubs and trees bordered with a dry stone wall. AN opening in a hedge row to the top of the garden leads you around to what you could call the rear of the garden where you find further patio seating areas and a large wooden shed for storage. This inturn leads you to the driveway at the front which provides parking for at least four vehicles. The driveway gives access to the private lane and can be secured by a 5-bar wooden gate.

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, pharmacy, highly reputed car garage, award winning delicatessen, fish and chip shop, hair salon, builders merchants, beauty therapist, bakery and Nisa 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 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 the Cotswold 'Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty' minutes from the village itself.
