Eastbourne Avenue, Bath, BA1

The recent renovation has created a beautifully presented family home that blends stylish modern finishes with a traditional feel. The accommodation includes a through sitting room with a front bay window and an attractive period fireplace. Period ceiling coving and a ceiling rose add character, while the open-plan dining area benefits from double doors opening onto the side garden. New oak flooring runs from the hall through to the double sitting room and into the breakfast room, which includes a practical utility cupboard and a downstairs WC. The adjacent kitchen features pale-green shaker-style units with integrated appliances. A stable door opens onto the recently added decked terrace, which wraps around the side and rear of the house; perfect for outdoor dining and for enjoying the wonderful views of Solsbury Hill. The remaining garden is laid to lawn, with a central path leading to a pedestrian gate at the far end. Clipped hedges, fruit trees and well-stocked flower borders provide interest throughout the seasons. Upstairs, the principal bedroom has a large front bay window and fitted wardrobes. The adjacent bedroom is also a double room. The bathroom has been stylishly refurbished with a free-standing Burlington basin, wood panelling and utility-style tiling. There is a third smaller bedroom on this floor. There is a practical attic space; opening the large Velux window reveals another superb view of Solsbury Hill.

Situation

Eastbourne Avenue occupies an elevated position on the northern slopes of Bath, between Camden and Larkhall. The area is highly sought after for its proximity to open countryside while still being within walking distance of the city centre. There is an excellent choice of schools nearby, including Royal High, Kingswood and two local primary schools including St Stephen’s Church of England. A short stroll away are two popular pubs and a convenient corner shop. Larkhall, just down the hill, offers further amenities including a local theatre and a range of independent shops such as a butcher, grocer, delicatessen, French bistro and café. From the house, it is approximately a one mile walk to the top of Milsom Street, and the area is also served by a regular bus service. Bath provides a wealth of cultural and leisure attractions, with its historic sites, fine restaurants, specialist shops, museums, art galleries and theatres. For commuters, Bath Spa railway station offers direct services to London Paddington, and Junction 18 of the M4 is approximately ten miles to the north.
