North Road, Bathwick, BA2

Hunters Lodge is a semi-detached home built in the 1930s of honey coloured Bath stone walls under a tiled roof. This charming home would now benefit from updating with the possibility of extending if required. Off the entrance hall is the kitchen and adjacent dining room, both with pleasant aspects to the front garden. The through-sitting room has glazed doors opening out onto the front terrace plus aspect to the rear with double doors leading to the conservatory at the back of the house. With the reception rooms flowing from one room to the other, it provides a practical ground floor layout. The first floor comprises three double bedrooms, one of which is a two-room suite and all three benefitting from wonderful far-reaching views over the trees towards the city.

The private drive has a parking area in front of the detached tandem garage, which is over 30 ft long, and then continues up to the house. The level enclosed garden to the front of the house is a lovely private area of lawn surrounded by mature shrubs, trees, and flower borders. A patio adjacent to the house provides the perfect dining area. There is a further paved terrace at the back of the house and then the garden continues up the slope with lawn and shallow steps reaching the top. Enclosed by hedging and mature trees at the far end where the boundary backs on to National Trust land.
