On a practical level, a useful utility room and downstairs WC are excellent bonuses for a modern family to kick off muddy boots and dry off wet dogs.

Upstairs and a wide light filled landing offers access to a bedroom on each corner of the house. Each a double bedroom and all with some built in wardrobes or store cupboards makes children's arguments over bedroom size a thing of the past. On a practical level the property also offers a bathroom to the rear and a toilets with basin in a separate room to the front. There is some potential too add an en suite if required and overall the space at this level will suit most discerning buyers.

The real hidden gem to this property is the unexpectedly and positively expansive garden to the rear. As you step out from the conservatory you are greeted by a wide patio area with a formal circular feature planting area and with a small step you are up onto a fantastic area of lawn which stretches a long way to the rear. The lawn is punctuated with a variety of fruit trees, flower beds and mature shrubs and offers a fantastic opportunity for keen gardeners to expand on this further and potentially create some vegetable beds for homegrown produce. In addition there is a very large and again surprisingly spacious potting shed to the side of the property offering plenty of room to store your garden utensils away. With such a large relaxing garden space the sun will follow you around the garden as you tend to your plants and the children play and make dens and hide.

This fantastic home also benefits from the added convenience of a garage and off-street parking, providing secure storage for vehicles and additional potential to extend further to create more. The front garden is framed by a period wall and a meticulously maintained Box hedging adds that Victorian elegance as you approach the front door.

Enjoy the convenience of village living with a plethora of local amenities within walking distance, including shops, Cafe's, a sought after school, doctors surgery, chemist and recreational facilities including a large village hall, bowls club, playing fields and park. Enjoy many of the village community activities throughout the year from May Fetes through to the annual Box rocks charity music event at The Queens Head. An essential and arguably one of the best Indian restaurants for miles is found at The Bear and with a strong arts and music scene, there is sure to be something for everyone to enjoy. In addition there are miles of countryside walks, cycle ways and woods to walk the dog or get some fresh air with the kids. The Georgian city of Bath is located just 6 miles away and regular bus services run through the village to connect you very easily.
