Cavendish Road, Bath, BA1

A desirable Georgian Revival detached lodge house set behind gates and with an open outlook.

Description

Beaufort Lodge is one of two distinctive lodge houses positioned on either side of an impressive gated driveway leading to Cavendish Lodge, a handsome Palladian Revival mansion. Completed in 1998, the development enjoys approximately 2.5 acres of beautifully maintained communal gardens and grounds, comprising sweeping lawns, mature planting, flower beds and woodland copse areas, all connected by a network of attractive gravel pathways.

Occupying a private setting, Beaufort Lodge extends to approximately 1,132 sq ft and offers a balanced and well proportioned arrangement of accommodation. The property benefits from generous parking facilities, attractive gardens to both sides, and delightful open westerly views across the neighbouring Approach Golf course, which is common land.

The accommodation has been designed to make the most of its attractive setting. The welcoming entrance hall provides access to the principal reception spaces, while the kitchen is comprehensively fitted with a range of integrated appliances and ample storage.

The spacious sitting and dining room is filled with natural light and enjoys a pleasant triple aspect. The principal outlook is to the west, providing attractive semi rural views together with wonderful afternoon and evening sunshine.

From a practical perspective, there is also a study or home office, providing an ideal quiet workspace. Alternatively, this room could serve as a creative hub for anyone pursuing a particular interest or hobby.

On the first floor, there are two double bedrooms, both featuring the distinctive oval windows that characterise the lodge houses. The principal bedroom benefits from fitted storage and an en suite bathroom, while the second bedroom is served by an en suite shower room and additional storage space.

Gardens
The property is approached via tall electric gates leading into the main grounds and driveway, from which the private driveway to Beaufort Lodge extends. There is parking for several vehicles, together with access to a spacious double garage (approximately 353 sq ft) with up and over doors, eaves storage and a pedestrian door leading to the garden.

The gardens provide an excellent balance of lawn, planting and terraced seating areas, creating a private and manageable outdoor environment. They are slightly elevated in comparison with the surrounding grounds, affording a greater degree of privacy. There is also a more secluded area of garden for practical use, which includes a timber shed providing additional storage.
