Full Description: 78 Monkton Farleigh is an elegant country house retaining many of its period features and has recently benefited from a renovation and modernisation.

The accommodation is arranged over two floors with 4 double bedrooms, a family bathroom, and an ensuite shower room on the first floor and 2 large reception rooms, a kitchen/dining room, a utility room, and a cloakroom on the ground floor.

The property has a spacious and natural flow between the main reception rooms, enabling flexible use of the space depending on family size and requirements. The main sitting room is generous at 22' x 16' with a marble fireplace and wood-burning stove. Due to its double aspect, it has an abundance of natural light and a door leading out to the garden. Next to the sitting room is a further reception room. We have labelled it as a study; it is a large room and could be a second sitting room, snug, office, library, or even a 5th bedroom should one be required.

The kitchen has been recently upgraded with Silestone quartz worktops and an Everhot range oven with induction hot plates. The appliances are integrated with plentiful cupboard storage. This is a triple-aspect room with wide opening French doors leading out to the garden. There is a useful utility room with a charming old flagstone floor and a separate cloakroom.

The 4 bedrooms are spacious double rooms, all with built-in wardrobes. The family bathroom is tiled floor to half-ceiling height, with underfloor heating, a deep bath, and a spacious shower.

Externally, one of the standout features of this property is the extensive garden wrapping around 3 sides of the house. A real gardener's paradise, facing south-west with mature perennial borders, a rose garden, a wide open lawn, an orchard, and an area left to wilding, it has something for everyone.

There is a large double garage which, at 26' x 17', could be both a garage and a potential workshop, with hardstanding in front to enable two cars to park off-street.

Situation

Monkton Farleigh is a village under 6 miles from the centre of Bath and 1.5 miles to the village shop in Bathford. A quiet rural village, it has a thriving community with a primary school and St. Peter's Church. There are several popular local walks from the village, and we understand the Beckford Group is in the process of purchasing the well-known former village pub, The King's Arms. The high-quality gastro pub group will no doubt be creating another destination pub, a real asset to the village (details are on the web).
