DESCRIPTION
A handsome period detached house with a superb contemporary extension to the rear that has been thoughtfully refurbished. Throughout the house are a wealth of period features to include open fireplaces, stone mullion windows, exposed beams and wooden floor boards, whilst the extension creates a modern open plan
kitchen and living space, excellent for entertaining and opening onto the garden, of which it overlooks. The accommodation is on three floors, all the rooms having generous proportions and light and bright spaces. This is particularly apparent in the extension, where the glazed floor to ceiling windows and doors open onto a
paved patio.
Large double gates open onto a gravel driveway and parking area in front of the house. To the side of the driveway is a large single storey workshop/utility.
The well maintained gardens lead around both sides of the house to the rear, where that is a lovely enclosed patio off the kitchen, leading beyond to a large level lawn. A large wooden pavilion style summerhouse, used presently
as a home office, is situated in an elevated position at the top of the garden overlooking the house and woodland beyond. A lower level of the garden has a pergola covered in a vine, used as a further entertaining area. One side of the garden is flanked by woodland with paths leading
along to Browns Folly and the end of the garden backs onto and overlooks open fields.
SITUATION
The house is conveniently located between Bath and Bradford-on-Avon in the South Cotswolds AONB, and the village of Monkton Farleigh is less than a mile away, which offers a primary school, pub and church. The charming market town of Bradford-on-Avon is just over 3 miles away
and has a full range of shops and amenities, a leisure centre and library. Cumberwell Golf Club is under a mile with its extensive 18 hole golf course suited to all levels. The City of Bath, a World Heritage Site famed for its Georgian architecture
and Roman history is approximately 3.8 miles away. It enjoys a variety of cultural, business and recreational facilities along with excellent schooling in both the state and private sectors plus two universities. These include Prior Park, Monkton Combe, King Edwards School, The
Royal High School for Girls and Kingswood, as well as Marlborough, Millfield and St Mary's Calne further afield. There is a regular rail service to London Paddington (journey time of 90 minutes) and Bristol Temple Meads (journey time of 15 minutes).
