Set on a very large plot overlooking the By-Brook Valley, this five-bedroom semi-detached home combines generous family space with striking countryside views. The dual-aspect living room with a woodburner and bay window is the social heart of the house, while a second reception, utility and guest cloakroom add useful day-to-day flexibility. Built in the post-war period, many rooms are spacious and well-proportioned, with built-in wardrobes to the double bedrooms and a large family bathroom plus an en-suite.
Externally the property offers a private parking area accessed at the front and a rear garden framed by mature trees and shrubs for privacy. A patio spot directly faces the valley, ideal for relaxing or entertaining. There are two garden sheds for storage and easy pedestrian access from the parking area down to the front entrance.
Practical points to note: the house dates from the 1950s–1960s and shows typical maintenance and cosmetic updating needs—external elements appear dated and there is scope for modernisation throughout. Broadband speeds in the area are reported as very slow, which may affect home-working unless alternatives are arranged. Energy performance sits at EPC C and the property is freehold with a moderate Council Tax band D.
This home will suit families seeking space and scenic, village-edge living with easy reach of Bath and local schools. It also offers clear potential for someone wanting to add value through sympathetic updating while preserving the character and maximising the exceptional valley views.
