Description

Stepping into the welcoming entrance hall, you are immediately struck by the sense of space and light that flows throughout the property. To the front of the house is the impressive sitting room, where a large picture window frames far-reaching views across the city of Bath. An integrated log burner creates a wonderful focal point, adding warmth and character to this inviting living space.

Positioned at the end of the hallway is the formal dining room, a superb space for entertaining and family gatherings. The room comfortably accommodates a large dining table and enjoys the same stunning outlook across Bath, providing an exceptional backdrop for dining.

Opposite, the beautifully appointed open-plan kitchen/breakfast room has been thoughtfully redesigned and upgraded to a high contemporary standard. Offering an excellent blend of style and practicality, the space features ample room for informal dining and everyday living. A cleverly concealed utility area is tucked away within the breakfast room, housing both a washing machine and tumble dryer. Beyond the kitchen, a modern cloakroom/WC and a charming stable door provide convenient access to the rear garden.

The first floor offers three well-proportioned bedrooms, including two exceptionally generous doubles and a spacious single bedroom. The principal bedroom is particularly impressive, benefiting from delightful north-westerly views across the city skyline and surrounding countryside. The second bedroom is currently arranged as a substantial home office, although it would serve equally well as a guest or double bedroom. The third bedroom is presently configured as a single bedroom but offers flexibility as a nursery, dressing room or additional study.

Completing the accommodation is the recently refurbished shower room, finished to a stylish modern standard and comprising a large walk-in shower, wash hand basin and WC.

Thoughtfully landscaped over several levels, the garden features mature trees, well-stocked planting beds, and a central pathway leading to a terraced area currently housing a swing.
