4 bed detached house for sale

North Road, Bath BA2

Goblin Combe is approached via a level driveway and dates from the 1950’s when it was built in the site of an old quarry. It sits centrally in a generous ¾ acre, elevated plot affording fine views over the city.

In previous years, it has been extended and now provides ample accommodation set to just two storeys to include 5 reception rooms, up to 5 bedrooms, ensuite facilities, an attached double garage and a first-floor balcony terrace to take in the vista.

Even more of a rarity in Bath is a near level plot boasting lots of mature planting, orchard area and being fully hedged and private making it a paradise for gardeners or anyone who enjoys being outside. The rear terrace at ground level spans the width of the house and benefits from a south westerly aspect therefore having the sun for the afternoon and evening – great for entertaining.

In summary a very unique opportunity to purchase an established house in one of Bath’s most sought after locations – early viewing recommended.
