St. Saviours Road, BATH, BA1

The entrance to Ellenborough House provides a great start to the tour with the vestibule and its smart tiled flooring opening into the reception hall; here oak floorboards continue into the drawing room with its tall bay windows and high ceiling adding to the charm of this room. One of the four bedrooms is located on the ground floor and works well with a triangular window looking out to the side garden plus an en-suite shower room. The stunning kitchen/dining/sitting room is of particular note and really is the heart of the house where cooking, dining, relaxing and entertaining all have their zones. A handmade and hand-painted kitchen is well planned and opens into the dining area with a full height ceiling including an impressive roof lantern. The sitting area is situated below the A-frame of the exposed ceiling beams. With the addition of two walls of bi-fold doors opening out to the terrace and garden, this is one of the best living spaces we have seen. The staircase rising to the first floor has an impressive feature wall of exposed stone and the sky light above allowing light to flood the landing, which leads to the three bedrooms and the stunning family bathroom. The principal bedroom looks over the front garden to the attractive Georgian buildings opposite. It benefits from a period fireplace and an en-suite shower room. The two further bedrooms also retain Victorian style fireplaces and overlook the garden to the rear. The bathroom is of note and has been designed as a luxurious room with a freestanding claw foot bath plus a double walk-in shower. As well as period features further interior design elements include stylish radiators and oak flooring flowing through the first floor bedrooms giving continuity from the ground floor as well as providing a warm look and practical living.

Outside

Ellenborough House benefits from a double-width garden, which has the potential as an additional building plot subject to planning permission. It not only has front and rear gardens, it also has a garden to the side with a drive providing off-street parking, a garage and a further vegetable garden and play area. The front garden is enclosed by hedging and fencing and includes a lawn as well as the practical area for parking. The larger rear and side garden has a spacious lawn and on one side is a external office building plus the raised vegetable beds and play area. A large paved terrace wraps around the wonderful live-in kitchen and dining area providing a great entertaining space.
