A substantial beautifully presented detached family home
High Orchard is an outstanding individual 1950's property which has been extensively extended and improved to provide a magnificent two storey four bedroom family home. It is conveniently located adjacent to Prior Park School and also has a wide selection of other facilities in the surrounding areas in Combe Down and Widcombe.
High Orchard originally dates back to the mid 1950's when we believe it was designed and built by the then City architect. Over recent times it has been expertly refurbished and re-modelled to create a stunning contemporary family home. An exterior of Bath stone under a slate roof, limestone flooring in the ground floor receptions and bespoke oak doors, highlight just a few of the quality materials used throughout this unique home. A covered terrace leads to the reception hall with a full height window overlooking the garden and across to Prior Park College and Rainbow Woods beyond. There is a full depth sitting room with French doors at either end and a contemporary fireplace. The dining room again has French doors to the gardens. There is a spacious and beautifully crafted Smallbone kitchen with oak units under a polished granite work surface. An impressive 'Mercury' cooker range, slate flooring and a attractive gas fire add to the interior design of this super kitchen. Off the kitchen is a cloakroom, impressive walk in pantry and internal access to the garage.
The first floor landing also forms part of the reception area with room for furniture and double doors opening to the balcony which benefits from far reaching views. The principal bedroom suite once again has wonderful far reaching views and has a sumptuous bathroom designed by 'Ripples'. The three further bedrooms also benefit from private luxury bathrooms and built in wardrobes adding to the unique elegance of this exceptional home.
Externally
The gardens and grounds of High Orchard are of particular note and have been skilfully landscaped to make the most of the views and topography. There is a gated driveway off Ralph Allen Drive providing extensive parking and leading to the garage. There are a variety of lawned areas, attractive shrubs and floor beds and an excellent terrace to the rear.
