Description
Chestnut Court is a substantial L-Shaped single storey barn conversion on the edge of the Farleigh House Estate, set behind electric gates with a southerly aspect. The gated access leads into a large tarmac parking area in front of the property. The accommodation has been arranged around a 70ft open plan living space with a wooden Parque floor, glazed floor to ceiling windows and overlooking and opening onto the gardens. At one end is a modern, fitted kitchen with a central island unit that leads onto a large dining and entertaining space, through to a living area with a wall mounted TV unit and feature fireplace. At the far end of the house is a welcoming reception hall next to a practical utility room, storage room and a W.C.
The other end of the house leads off to four double bedrooms, two having en suite bath/shower rooms and a further bathroom serves the other bedrooms.
A large patio faces south and opens onto the driveway where a large wooden storage barn is located, offering versatile usage of garaging, or a home office/gym. The far side of the house is a level enclosed lawn with open views to the rear.

Situation
The position is excellent and historic. It is a small and very picturesque village, divided by a humpback bridge over the Frome River, popular for wild swimming. The property neighbours Farleigh House, now the home to Bath Rugby team, where they train and the village is surrounded by beautiful countryside and woodland, excellent for walking and riding. The village also has the 13th century castle, owned by English heritage and the village having evidence of Roman origins. The larger village of Norton St Philip only half a mile away, has two pubs and a large shop, and Beckington Farm Shop is a short distance away with an award-winning fish and chip shop, and M & S food hall and petrol station. There are excellent nearby schools in both the public and private sectors, to include Monkton Combe, Prior Park, King Edward's, Kingswood and The Royal High School. Also within close proximity is the fashionable hotel, Babington House. The village is equidistance to historic and vibrant Bath and fashionable Frome, both accessed by a regular bus service.

The next steps...

Before making an offer on a property you will want to consider your financial situation, your income and outgoings.

Will you finance the purchase of your next property from the sale of an existing property which can put you in a chain, arrange a mortgage through your bank or buy the property outright.

To help you finance your next property purchase, we have a long established relationship with an independent mortgage broker who can discuss your situation with you.

Remember that having a 'mortgage decision in principle' can make you a more attractive buyer when you make an offer on a property. Contact our mortgage advisers for free, no obligation and impartial advice.

Some advantages of a broker are:

  • They do all the legwork for you, working on your behalf with the lender
  • They compare wholesale mortgage rates from a large number of banks and lenders all at once
  • Their wholesale interest rates can be lower than retail (bank branch) interest rates
  • They offer more loan options because they work with numerous banks and lenders
  • They can finance tricky deals because of their knowledge and various lending partners
  • They are typically easier to get in contact with, and are less bureaucratic.

However advantages of working with your bank are:

  • You may be able to build off an existing relationship (and gain discounts if you have a checking or savings account)
  • You may already know the banker who will handle your mortgage
  • Banks may be more accountable than a smaller shop
  • They may offer lower interest rates in some cases
  • Their ability to add mortgage to existing banking profile and make automatic payments from linked account.

If other offers have been made on a property we aren't legally able to tell you what they are, but we may indicate if they were close to the asking price.

If you have a property to sell, why not see how we can help you.
