Description
An Edwardian gem full of period features and a handsome façade with a wrought iron canopied porch, stone mullioned bay windows and Tudor-style panelling. This substantial family home sits in a prominent position overlooking the city.
The enclosed entrance lobby is beautifully tiled, home to a cloakroom and leads through to the impressive entrance hall with original wood panelling, a grand staircase, integrated panelled seating, stained-glass windows and a centrepiece period fireplace. There are two spacious reception rooms, the sitting room to the rear has glazed French doors to the sheltered south-facing rear patio. The open-plan kitchen/dining room is a fantastic space for entertaining, with an island unit and plenty of storage as well as a separate north-facing pantry. There is a utility space in the conservatory to the side of the house.
To the first floor are three large double bedrooms, the rear bedroom opening through French doors onto a south-facing balcony; this sunny balcony has a part-glazed canopy, and a mature Wisteria has wound itself around the railings. The third bedroom to the front also has a balcony, with intricate wrought-ironwork surrounds and amazing views over Bath. Two further bedrooms overlook the large garden to the rear. There is a family bathroom, with separate shower, and a separate WC.
The patio steps up to the landscaped rear garden, with lawn, mature planting and space to sit and enjoy the scenery. To the front of the property is driveway parking for several cars, a garage, storage shed and the lawned front garden.
