The Folly, Saltford, Bristol

Combe Lodge is an attractive Edwardian semi detached house offering accommodation arranged over three floors, set in a sought after private cul de sac on the edge of the village with far reaching sylvan views along the Avon Valley towards the City of Bath. The property was renovated about 20 years ago and has more recently been let for a number of years and is now offered to the market with scope to update and refurbish to individual taste.

On the ground floor the house is approached through an entrance hall with a sitting room to the front which has a wood burning stove and french doors leading to a verandah and a raised terrace overlooking the beautiful views. At the rear, is an open plan kitchen/dining room which spans the full width of the property and has a bay window and double doors leading to a secluded terrace. There is also a utility area and cloakroom on the ground floor.

The first floor has two double bedrooms, the forward facing room has double doors leading to a balcony from which beautiful views can be fully enjoyed. There is also an en suite wet room. The rear facing room has views across the garden. The family bathroom has a Victorian style suite featuring a free standing roll top bath with claw feet. The top floor offers two bedrooms, both are of good proportions, served by a separate wet room.

On the outside the property has parking to the front for 2/3 vehicles with two garages beneath the raised terrace. A pathway leads to the front door and continues to the rear garden which is on three main levels and enjoys a good degree of maturity.

Saltford is an excellent strategic location between the cities of Bristol and Bath offering a range of village amenities and excellent local schools, both the village primary school and Wellsway at Keynsham. The cities of Bristol and Bath are within easy reach by road and public transport.
