Chatley Furlong, Norton St. Philip, Bath, Somerset, BA2

Tucked away in a quiet and elevated position on the edge of the sought-after village of Norton St Philip, Peartree House is a striking six-bedroom family home designed and completed by the current owners in 2007.

Built on the site of a former bungalow, the owners worked closely with a timber-frame company and local craftsmen to bring their vision to life – creating a unique home that’s both spacious and filled with light. 'We wanted a spacious home with plenty of natural light, but also one that felt cosy and welcoming.’ The result is Peartree House, a beautifully executed, contemporary house with over 40 windows. Arranged across two well-planned floors, the house features generous reception rooms, a large open-plan kitchen – the heart of the home – and garden room, a double-height central dining hall with a galleried landing and six large glass roof-lights perfectly placed for stargazing. The six bedrooms include a peaceful principal suite complete with vaulted ceiling and dressing area. ‘Even with six bedrooms, it never feels too big – it’s still a very warm and intimate family home,’ the owners reflect. Clever lighting, including soft LED strips on the stairs and landing, adds atmosphere and practicality.
Set within a wonderfully private garden of just under half an acre, this delightful home occupies an excellent position and serves as a haven for both children and adults, bordered by open fields and offering complete privacy. ‘We loved the east-facing garden from the moment we saw it. It felt like the perfect place to raise a family,’ they say.

‘We’ve hosted countless birthday parties, barbecues and even village gatherings here. It’s such a safe, happy space.’

‘The house is set just back from the road, so while the village amenities are close by, the home remains blissfully peaceful. From the landing, you can see as far as the lovely village of Beckington and views from the back garden stretch toward Westbury White Horse.’

‘You can watch the sunrise from every room at the back of the house and enjoy the sunset from the front.’

‘Norton St Philip is a vibrant and historic village, home to one of England’s oldest pubs, The George, as well as a church, village green, and local school. We’ve made lifelong friends here – it’s a genuinely kind and close-knit community.’

‘It’s hard to leave a home that’s meant so much, but now it’s time for another family to write the next chapter here.’
