Weston Road, Bath, BA1

The Moravians, an international protestant church, arrived in Bath in the eighteenth century and Moravian Cottages were built around 1785. The property is a well proportioned home, arranged on three levels under a Mansard roof. The front hall has a winder staircase to the upper floors with a built-in cupboard and door to the sitting room. A lovely triple aspect room with door to the rear garden, and a fireplace with period grate and gas supply if needed. The high quality kitchen is fitted with contemporary units under granite tops and includes integrated double drawer dishwasher and refrigerator. There is also a recess for a slot-in cooker. The main bedroom on the first floor has windows on three aspects, an eighteenth century chimney piece and built-in wardrobe. The bathroom is also on this floor, with a contemporary suite and vanity unit for the wash basin. A second flight of stairs ascends to two further bedrooms; the larger is a double aspect room with elevated views to the rear and includes a period fireplace and wardrobe. The third bedroom is presently used as a study.

Outside

There is a small front garden behind a low wall and with planted beds and stone paving. To the rear is a courtyard with outside laundry room and WC. From here a pair of eighteenth century gates lead to the closed Moravian Burial Ground, which was purchased as a garden and divided between the two cottages some years ago.

Situation

Weston Road is situated along the borders of The Royal Victoria Park and the house is a pleasant walk through the stunning, sweeping lawns and park gardens into the city centre. The park also offers an impressive childrens play area, tennis courts, crazy golf course and tea rooms. This popular and convenient location is close to a comprehensive array of social and cultural facilities, fine restaurants and individual shops that Bath is so famous for. Bath has excellent communications with Bristol and is approximately 10 miles south of Junction 18 of the M4. There are high speed trains to London Paddington from Bath Spa and Bristol Airport is less than a 20 mile drive.
