Oak Street, Bath, BA2

Setting the Scene

Oak Street has that rare hidden gem feel, close enough to the heart of Bath to enjoy everything the city offers, yet tucked away with a surprising sense of seclusion. Set on the south side of the city, less than a mile from the centre, it’s surrounded by handsome Georgian terraces and a growing riverside scene. The Newark Works at South Quay has brought a fresh energy to the area, with stylish workspaces, Mokoko coffee, and a cool atmosphere along the river with the cycle path stretching all the way to Bristol.

Bath itself, a UNESCO World Heritage city, is known for its iconic Georgian architecture, independent cafés, restaurants, bars and thriving cultural scene. Oak Street attracts a great mix of young professionals, families and long-time locals, giving it a lively but balanced feel.

The location is brilliantly connected too. The city is an easy flat walk, within ten minutes you can be at the famous Roman Baths right in the centre. Bath Spa and Oldfield Park stations and the A4 are nearby, offering easy access to Bristol and London. With excellent schools close by, including Widcombe, Hayesfield and Beechen Cliff, it’s easy to see why Oak Street is so popular with first-time buyers and professionals looking for a characterful Bath base with a little edge.

The Property

Recently renovated throughout, this inviting three-bedroom Grade II listed house combines period detail with a fresh, contemporary finish and a cleverly considered use of space.

At the heart of the home is an immaculate open-plan kitchen diner, providing plenty of room for cooking, dining and entertaining. Sash windows throughout complement the period architecture and make the house feel light and bright, while a working log burner adds warmth to the living room.

Built-in storage has been thoughtfully incorporated into every room, while the Jack and Jill bathroom works particularly well, serving as both the main family bathroom and an en-suite to the principal bedroom. The third bedroom adds further flexibility and would work equally well as a home office, nursery or guest room.

Ready to move straight into, the combination of its recent renovation, excellent location and practical layout makes it particularly appealing to first-time buyers and young professionals. Having been successfully let for the past year, it also offers proven rental potential for anyone looking for an investment.
