The Dovecote, School Place, Claverton, Bath, Bath And North East Somerset

Dovecote Cottage is a charming family home, formerly part of the curtilage of Manor Farm and converted into a residential dwelling in the 1980s. The conversion was carefully done, retaining many of the original period features, including stone mullion windows and arches, exposed oak beams, and the original bread oven.

The property has well-balanced accommodation with 4 double bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. The kitchen is open-plan, opening out to a large dining room with French windows to the garden. The sitting room has an abundance of character with large exposed oak beams and three elegant stone arches. There is a ‘Jet-master’ open fire in the central arch with an original bread oven featured next to it. The fourth bedroom with an en-suite shower room can be found next to the sitting room, providing a useful additional bedroom for anyone with limited mobility or requiring a home office. There are 3 further double bedrooms on the first floor, with a recently upgraded shower room with a ‘Jack & Jill’ configuration providing a facility for 2 of the three bedrooms.

Externally, Dovecote Cottage has mature gardens to the front and rear with off-street parking for 4-6 cars and a double garage. The gardens are laid mostly to lawn with mature borders and 2 terraced seating areas. The gardens are enclosed by thick hedges providing privacy and security for young children and pets.
