Springfield Place, Bath, Somerset, BA1

3 Springfield Place is an elegant, Grade II listed Regency villa over three floors, set back from the road, with a good-sized driveway at its front. Inside the side entrance door, a light and spacious hall leads to a study on the right and a generous cloakroom/WC to the left. Straight ahead, the hall continues to two further rooms - the dining room has views west to the garden, the living room faces the front, overlooking the drive. Most of the rooms throughout this charming property have attractive period details, including fireplaces, window shutters, coving and high ceilings with historical 'roses'.

Stairs down to the lower ground floor lead to the kitchen/breakfast room, with flagstone flooring, fitted units, built-in appliances and granite worktops. A range cooker sits in the chimney breast with traditional shelving either side and there's a walk-in pantry. A half-glazed door opens directly onto the rear garden terrace. The rest of the accommodation on this floor is flexible, currently there's a second living room/snug, as well as a bedroom and shower room.

On the first floor, the principal bedroom suite has views to the garden, original built-in cupboards and a large bathroom with roll top bath and separate shower. The other two bedrooms are both doubles, have fireplaces and share a family bathroom. There's generous storage on the landing, as well as in the loft, and the landing has naturally light from its roof skylight.

Gardens and Grounds
At its front, a stone wall and hedging separate the drive from the pavement. There's private parking on the drive, with space for turning. A step up leads to an iron canopy porch, with intricate ironwork on two sides - it makes for a grand entrance. At the side of this, a path leads to a gate into the rear walled garden which is mostly flat. A paved terrace spans the full width of the house and there are glazed store rooms either side, attached to the house. Rectangular flower beds at the centre of the garden have gravel paths in between, and two large, wooden sheds offer useful storage space.

Springfield Place is located on the central slopes of Lansdown, one of the most sought after locations in Bath. The city centre is just half a mile walk, offering easy access to all Bath's shops, restaurants, bars and entertainment facilities, as well as its wide range of cultural attractions. There is also a huge range of sporting opportunities in and around Bath including golf, cricket, horse racing and rugby. A number of good state and independent schools are within easy reach, including Kingswood and The Royal High School, also located on Lansdown.
