Thomas Street, Bath, Somerset, BA1

Tucked away on a peaceful, no-through road just moments from the city centre, 18 Thomas Street, Bath is a characterful Victorian terrace that blends period charm with thoughtful modern updates.

Arranged over three floors with three bedrooms and a private, sunny garden, it’s a rare find – a home that offers light, warmth and space in one of Bath’s most desirable locations.

‘For a city home it’s so peaceful here with no passing traffic and no parking issues. It feels safe too, which has been brilliant for us as a young family,’ say the owners.
Since moving in, they’ve made a series of high-quality improvements designed to make everyday living both stylish and practical. They replaced the front and back doors, installed a new boiler, updated the electrics and added a beautifully designed utility room. The kitchen was refreshed with a quartz worktop, ceramic sink and new oven, while bespoke joinery adds elegant storage throughout. The nursery features soft panelling and warm tones, creating what they describe as ‘a magical, cosy space with such a lovely energy.’

‘The house was a bit of a muddle when we moved in, but we could see the potential straight away. We’ve poured so much love into making it our dream home,’ they explain.
The once-neglected garden has been completely transformed with the help of a family member, a landscape gardener. ‘It’s now a tranquil, private oasis with both shaded and sunny spots — perfect for long summer afternoons.’

Period details have been carefully preserved, including the original fireplace in the front sitting room, the stained-glass door and even the old doorbell. Natural light fills the house, especially the principal bedroom, where evening sun creates a calm, restful atmosphere.

‘It’s a level walk into the city centre and just minutes from green spaces such as Hedgemead Park, Sydney Gardens and the canal.’

‘The house is within walking distance of independent shops, cafés, excellent nurseries and schools, and the pub at the bottom of the street — Town + House — is a great community hub serving the best Sunday lunch.’

‘For entertaining, the kitchen easily seats six at the dining table, and the layout offers the potential to create a more formal dining space if desired.’

‘Everyone looks out for each other here. It’s a really special street.’

‘I’ll miss the utility room most — having a dedicated space that we designed for how we live has been such a luxury.’
