Widcombe House comprises a substantial individual detached family house which originally is believed to date from the 1950's. During our clients ownership the property has been transformed through a sensitive programme of refurbishment and improvement providing well planned spacious family accommodation extending to well in excess of 2000sq ft across two floors.
On the ground floor there is an entrance porch which gives access to an attractive wide entrance hall which is a spacious introduction to the property. A well proportioned living room runs the full depth of the property with a bay window to the front and French doors leading to a recently added Garden room which enjoys superb views across the garden and far reaching views beyond. There is a large separate dining room and a beautifully refitted kitchen/breakfast room with a separate utility room which also has a wc and wash hand basin. On the first floor there are four double bedrooms, the main bedroom having an en suite shower room, the other bedrooms including a fifth bedroom or study being served by a large family shower room.
The property stands on an enviable plot with abundant parking to the front and a large detached double garage with an electric entrance door presently divided to provide a hobbies room and storage area. To the rear there is a large level established garden approximately 100 ft in depth backing onto fields with attractive views beyond.
Grange Road has long been one of Saltford's premier residential areas being a road of individual properties. The western side on which this property is situated is especially sought after as it offers views towards Keynsham and is far enough away from the A4 not to be affected by traffic noise.
Saltford is an excellent strategic location between the cities of Bristol and Bath offering a range of village amenities and excellent local schools, both the village primary school and Wellsway at Keynsham.
