Shaft Road, Monkton Combe, Bath, Somerset, BA2

An impressive, spacious, light and well-presented modern family home situated in this sought-after area on the southern slopes of Bath. The property has been extended and refurbished throughout, over the past 10 years, to provide a light and spacious family home. The versatile accommodation is arranged over three floors and is currently used as four double bedrooms each with it's own bathroom or shower room.

Entering the house via a couple of steps to the front door is a welcoming and modern entrance hall. Wooden flooring, with underfloor heating runs throughout the ground floor creating a lovely flow from room to room. There is a guest suite comprising double bedroom and shower room with double doors to a paved patio. This versatile room with easy access could also be used by a dependent relative. A sitting room and dining room, both with woodburning fires, lead off the hall and there is a contemporary staircase, with ambient lighting, to the first floor.

Next is an impressive kitchen. This features a large island with space for numerous bar stools. There are quality Siemens appliances, all integrated, and white quartz worktops. It is a wonderfully light and spacious space and is open to a relaxing tv area. Enjoying a double aspect to front and rear, bifold doors lead to the outside. To complete this particularly sociable open plan living space is a versatile garden room/conservatory providing an additional living area. There is also a useful utility room off the kitchen.

Of special note is the wonderfully private bedroom accommodation at the top of the house, that has a pull-out Juliet balcony and enjoys breathtaking views towards the White Horse at Westbury.

There are a couple steps from the parking area down to the front of the house. The gravel parking area provides ample parking for a number of cars. There is also a separate gym or garden office. (Planning has been submitted to create a separate 2 room annexe here). Finally there is a single garage/store room.

To the rear of the house there are various terraces, both paved and decked, providing spaces for sitting, dining and relaxing all leading directly off the house and enjoying a south and easterly aspect.
