2 bed semi-detached house for sale

Mendip Gardens, Odd Down, Bath BA2

A classical Bay Fronted 1930's Semi-Detached House, proudly sitting part way along Mendip Gardens where the road widens, providing additional parking. The property has been under the current ownership since the 1990's and has been enhanced and looked after over the years, creating a home you can simply move into, enhance further and add your own cosmetic style too.

The gardens are particularly pleasant offering privacy and a sanctuary like feel when you are sat within them. Residents here enjoy a friendly neighbourhood with the bonus of easy access to the City and open Countryside both a short distance away.

You enter via the hallway that has a downstairs WC which is really handy for day to day and guests. To the side is the Living room, full of light with its large bay fronted window and a gas fire as a focal area. This room now opens int the Dining Room which in turn has French Doors leading into the Conservatory, you can open the doors to all of this and let the summer breeze and birdsong from the gardens flow through.

Further down the hall is the well equipped Kitchen, this over looks the rear garden and affords plenty of space. You can also access the Conservatory from here. Some may consider making the Kitchen larger and going across where the Conservatory presently stands. This could join up into the Dining Room too.

Upstairs the Landing has a side window and a loft hatch with a pull down ladder, partials boarding and a light. Neighbours have gone into Lofts looking at the Skylight Windows along the road, so more potential here too. Then you will discover two Double Bedrooms, the main Bedroom again has a Bay window as well as fitted wardrobes. To the rear is a Box Room of 1.71m x 1.06 m, ideal as a study area I feel. Finishing off the first floor is a three piece Bathroom in a classic white Suite with a mixer Shower over the Bath.

Heading outside you have beautiful matured gardens full of nature and foliage. A large Cherry Tree, two Apple Trees and a Pear tree to name a few, the garden feel private with the tall trees. The patio area is great for outdoor eating and entertaining, the central lawn area has a charming winding path laid to pea gravel. Towards the end is a hidden area with Cerny stone and Bamboo. Next to hear is a Garage which you gain access from Upper Wellsway Road. The Front Gardens follow the trend of lots of mature shrubs and trees, making it private with a Driveway to the side.
