This Property

A stylish and versatile four-bedroom Victorian home, beautifully presented throughout yet offering exciting potential to enhance further.

The standout feature is the bespoke Husk kitchen/diner, thoughtfully designed and opening directly onto a raised deck with far-reaching views across the southern side of Bath towards Beckford’s Tower. Open plan to the reception room, it creates a fantastic main living space.

The lower ground floor adds another dimension, with a fourth bedroom, utility, shower room and independent garden access. With plumbing already in place, this level offers excellent potential for more independent accommodation, ideal for older children, relatives, guests or potentially rental use.

Upstairs, three further bedrooms include a converted loft room, with scope to add a dormer and enhance the space further, subject to the necessary consents.

Outside, the rear garden and adjoining terrace provide plenty of space for outdoor dining and entertaining, with direct access from both the kitchen/diner and lower ground floor.

A must see for young professionals and families looking for a home that combines great design, impressive views and plenty of flexibility for the future.
