Devonshire Villas, Bath

We are delighted to bring to market this elegant Victorian townhouse, arranged over four floors and offering a wealth of character and flexible accommodation. With four bedrooms in the main house, a separate one-bedroom basement apartment and a south-east-facing garden, the property offers plenty of scope for family living, guests or potential rental income.

Description & Location - The basement apartment provides flexibility for longer-term letting or use as holiday accommodation, subject to any necessary consents. Some neighbouring properties along the terrace have converted this level into a garage, suggesting further potential, subject to the relevant permissions.

On the ground floor, a beautiful entrance hall sets the tone, with neutral Mandarin Stone floor tiles and an array of period details. To the right, the kitchen overlooks the garden and combines high ceilings with character features. Double doors lead through to the inviting sitting room, where a feature fireplace, decorative coving and large sash bay window create an elegant yet cosy setting. A utility room incorporating a shower and WC, together with useful understairs storage, completes this floor.

The first floor accommodates two generous double bedrooms and a separate WC. The principal bedroom features a fireplace, a bay window and ample space for wardrobes, while the second bedroom also retains a character fireplace.

On the top floor, the family bathroom offers both a bath and a separate shower. Bedroom three enjoys beautiful Victorian-style windows and far-reaching views across the BA1 side of Bath. To the rear, the fourth bedroom is another well-proportioned room with equally attractive windows.

Outside, the south-east-facing garden provides a lovely space to sit and unwind. On-street permit parking is available outside the property and in the surrounding Poets’ Corner area, subject to availability and permit eligibility

Devonshire Villas is situated in the popular Bear Flat area of Bath, close to Poets’ Corner and a variety of local shops, cafés, a delicatessen and everyday amenities.
