Description

Quote Reference NF0664 To Arrange Your Viewing

Number 6 Laurel Gardens is a very fine Retirement Home for the discerning buyer that will enjoy this highly regarded complex of just eight similar houses. Its designed for the over 55's considering the transfer from family home and downsizing, but allowing plenty of space, light and ease of moving around. Its cleverly thought out with bedrooms and shower rooms on both floors, so the stairs are not an issue. Room here for visitors too. 

The development is tucked away on the edge of Timsbury village surround by beautiful gardens you can enjoy, full of flora and fauna. A wonderful location with a village full of amenities, more than most and then you are within just 30 minutes of the cities of Bath and Bristol and the Airport by car. 

The property has a large overhanging glazed roof at the entrance, allowing you time to enter the property protected from the elements, and space to charge a buggy or store items if needed. The large entrance hall is wonderful with its vaulted ceiling and skylight so its full of light and room to move around. A large storage cupboard to one side.(maybe space to add a lift possibly), you find two more additional cupboards here too. Across the hall is the Living Room and cleverly its at the front with French doors so you can look over the communal gardens and see when visitors arrive. Just behind is a generous Kitchen/Dining Room with ample space to cook, plenty of room for appliances and then a lovely area at the end with windows to both sides where you can have a dining table overlooking your very own back garden. 

Also on the ground floor is a double bedroom with fitted wardrobes and a wonderful recently fitted En-suite Shower Room. We are talking high specified, with a non slip floor, walk in Shower cubicle with a mobile thermostat water control(turn the shower on from your bed if you wish to get it warmed up!) A vanity unit with wash hand basin and an electronic touch mirror over. Even the toilet has a touch sensor flush operation. What a room!

Ascend the stairs and there is a lovely long landing with a banister and enough space to position a chair and have a reading corner. You will discover the generous second bedroom also with a fitted double wardrobe. There is a Shower room on this floor, fully fitted out with a mixer shower part of  three piece suite. At the end of the landing is a Study/Occasional Bedroom, a great room  position a desk or make into a dressing room. To the side is a large eaves door which gives easy access into a long boarded loft area with a light. No struggles here to put thing and retrieve them.

There is lawn, an out side tap and light. There is wooden fence to the rear and open borders to the sides. Climbing plants such as wisteria and others adorn parts of the fencing and create colourful blooms.

To note here the residents are friendly and happy they also respect your privacy so it has a very nice ambience about the place. 

Location

The village of Timsbury is such a highly regarded village to call home. The community is renowned for its friendly and active society. Viewers often comment to me how warming it is wandering around the village.

Located between the cities of Bath and Bristol, with Wells a little further the other way its a great base for those wanting the calmness of rural living yet easily connectable to the larger conurbations.

About eXp UK, South West

1 Northumberland Avenue, Trafalgar Square, London, WC2N 5BW

eXp UK are the newest estate agency business, powering individual agents around the UK to provide a personal service and experience to help get you moved.

Here are the top 7 things you need to know when moving home:

Get your house valued by 3 different agents before you put it on the market

Don't pick the agent that values it the highest, without evidence of other properties sold in the same area

It's always best to put your house on the market before you find a property

The estate agent acts for the seller and is there to get the seller the best price possible

Understand the length of time it can take - 14 weeks from when you accept an offer, or have an offer accepted to move in! A long time!

It can get stressful, but speak to your agent and your solicitor and they will put you in the picture

Be nice to estate agents - we're pretty nice people, offer some great advice and will help to get you moved ;-)
