Bath Street, Staple Hill

"The garden is a suntrap, we love nothing more than sitting on the decking after work, drinking a cocktail and watching the sun set. Page Park is where we spend most of our weekends, whether it’s enjoying the Saturday market with stalls along the promenade or grabbing pizza on a Friday evening in May. The neighbours on either side are lovely, and the wider street has a real sense of community. We’ve truly enjoyed our time on Bath Street and will be sad to leave."

The home

A thoughtfully updated Victorian terrace, combining warm, practical interiors with a calm and understated aesthetic. Arranged over two floors and extending to approximately 781 sqft, the house balances everyday functionality with a softer, more considered approach to design. The living room sits at the centre of the home, bright and inviting, with laminate flooring underfoot, muted green tones and a simple, uncluttered layout. Natural light draws through from both ends of the house, while the open staircase and wide opening into the kitchen help the space feel connected and easy to move through. To the front, the dining room provides a generous second reception space, with built-in shelving and room for a large table beneath exposed beam. The kitchen has been finished in muted grey cabinetry with timber worktops and brass hardware, giving it a clean but characterful feel. Underneath the staircase is a dog bed / nook, added by the current sellers. Upstairs are two double bedrooms and a spacious bathroom. The main bedroom is calm and well proportioned, with panelled detailing and a softer, neutral scheme, while the second bedroom works equally well as a guest room, nursery or study. The bathroom is unusually generous for a house of this size, with a freestanding bath and vaulted ceiling bringing additional light and height.

The outside space

Outside, the southwest facing rear garden has been designed for low maintenance and outdoor living, with gravel paths, raised planters, a decked seating area and a covered section for shade in warmer months. A timber shed sits at the far end, providing useful external storage or home office space, as the structure benefits from power, Wi-Fi connectivity and insulation.
