Fortescue Street, Norton St. Philip, Bath, Somerset, BA2

Set on a peaceful, cobbled street in the heart of the sought-after village of Norton St Philip Bell House offers the best of modern living with a timeless village setting. Built in 2014 by award-winning architect Robert Adam, this beautifully designed link-detached home is part of a high-quality, conservation-area development where every house is individually crafted. ‘We’d lived in the village for over 17 years and had always admired this area,’ say the current owners, who moved in just a year ago. ‘Bell House immediately stood out – it has such a welcoming feel and sits in the most idyllic spot.’
Set across two light-filled floors, the three-bedroom home feels generous in size, with high ceilings and quality finishes throughout. Recently redecorated inside and out, with fresh carpets and plantation shutters, the house is move-in ready. ‘It’s a low-maintenance home, so you can just relax and enjoy life,’ the owners say.
The kitchen is a particular highlight – a sociable space that opens out through French doors onto a sun-drenched garden with a real Mediterranean feel. ‘It’s such a great spot for entertaining or simply unwinding with a coffee. The sun moves across the space beautifully throughout the day.’
The living room has a calming atmosphere, thanks to its neutral decor and Bath stone feature fireplace. ‘It’s my favourite place to read and unwind.’ Upstairs, the main bedroom enjoys far-reaching views over open fields and benefits from a sleek en-suite shower room.
Set just moments from the Coop and post office, the house is also close to scenic countryside paths. ‘There’s a cut-through just next to us that takes you straight out into green open space. The walks around here are fabulous.’

‘The community spirit of Norton St Philip is another big draw. The neighbours are so friendly – if you ever need anything, there’s always someone willing to help. You can be as involved as you like.’

‘The village is well-served with a primary school, the historic George Inn, a cricket pitch, a church, the vibrant Palairet Hall hosting many events, and nearby Flourish farm shop.’

‘The area has so much to offer, and having easy access to Bath, Frome, and Bradford on Avon is a real bonus.’

‘We hadn’t planned to leave so soon, but a plot opportunity came up. We’ll be very sad to go – it’s a lovely, easy home in a truly special place.’
