Bloomfield Drive is a popular location on the south side of Bath under a mile and half from Bath city centre. Situated at the more popular Bloomfield Road end of Bloomfield Drive on the favourable lower side of the road, this solidly reliable semi offers circa 983sqft / 91.3sqm of accommodation over two floors. The property sits in a wonderful plot with garage parking to the rear offering panoramic far reaching views towards Bristol and the Welsh hills.
The traditional configuration begins with an entrance hall with staircase and understair cupboards. The sitting room to the front is bayed with picture rails and the dining room to the rear has double glazed French doors to the rear garden. The kitchen is wider than a galley and also leads to the garden. Upstairs, the first floor landing has an above stair storage cupboard and doors to all three bedrooms and the bathroom. The front bayed bedroom is a good size double as is bedroom two to the rear with an elevated and scenic view over the gardens, allotments and Corston View Park towards Bristol and Wales. Bedroom three is a smaller double bedroom and the bathroom is neutrally decorated with a shower attachment over the bath.
The rear garden has been tended for over the years and is wonderful garden for families or for those who want a garden to keep them fit and healthy. A garage to the rear of the garden provides off road parking or storage space with a thin hard standing area beyond before the rear access lane.
The front garden is well kept with a lawn and established shrub and plant borders with gated side access to the rear garden and an open canopied porch over the front door.
Bloomfield Drive is a popular location to the south of Bath and the area is recognised for the number of excellent schools including Beechen Cliff, Hayesfield, St Gregorys and Ralph Allen. For those who commute, Bath city centre and Bath Spa railway station are within 1.5 miles on foot or 1.7 miles by car and there is a regular bus service to and from the city centre from Bloomfield Drive itself.
Parks and green spaces include Bloomfield Green at the bottom of Bloomfield Road offers a lovely space for children to play leading to the Sustrains Cycle path and the Two Tunnels, the iconic 13-mile walking and cycling loop through beautiful green spaces. Moorlands Park off Englishcombe Lane and Alexandra Park accessed from the top of Shakespeare Avenue in Bear Flat are within a mile. Corston View Park is closer still just beyond the allotments directly behind the property offering a green space for kids or a quick dog walk. A raised path opposite Bloomfield Crescent offers a pleasant woodland walk to the Tumps.
The sports facilities at the developed Odd Down Sports Ground is a short distance away and include a 1.5km closed road cycling circuit, 3G astro turf and grass pitches.
This property will make a fantastic long term family home offering potential to buyers to extend to the rear and convert the loft subject to planning permission and/or building regulations.
