VENDOR SUITED. This attractive double bay fronted detached bungalow originally dates from the 1930s and is built in Bath stone beneath a tile clad pitched roof. It has a double glazed conservatory attached to one side and stands on an enviable corner plot at the corner of Horsecombe Brow and Bradford Road immediately adjacent to local shops, amenities and public transport links.

Internally, the accommodation is well arranged around a central hallway enjoying the traditional versatility of a bungalow which is presently arranged as two bay fronted reception rooms, conservatory and kitchen/breakfast room. One of the reception rooms could easily be used as a third bedroom in addition to the existing two double bedrooms, bathroom and separate shower room. The property has retained features associated with the 1930's era including good ceiling heights, picture rails, panelled internal doors etc.

On the outside the bungalow is set back from Horsecombe Brow behind a pretty front garden with a larger garden on the northern side of the property comprising a driveway, leading to detached timber garage and workshop with mature lawns, shrub borders, timber summer house and decking. There is a gravelled area of garden on the southern side of the property and a wide paved pathway to the rear.

Combe Down is an extremely popular location on the southern slopes of the City of Bath and Horsecombe Brow is a highly regarded cul de sac location. The property is close to Bradford Road shops which offer a range of local amenities including a convenience store, bakery, chemist, newsagents with post office and barbers. The property is on a regular bus route to the city centre.
