4 bed terraced house for sale

Darlington Place, Bath, Somerset BA2

Number 8 Darlington Place forms part of a distinguished Georgian terrace designed by John Pinch circa 1824. The property retains a wealth of period detail, including intricate cornicing, ceiling roses, working shutters, elegant fireplaces and a beautiful cantilevered stone staircase with its original handrail.
The house has been refurbished and is presented in immaculate condition, with spacious and versatile accommodation arranged over four storeys. On the lower ground floor, an elegant dining room opens into a generously sized contemporary kitchen/breakfast room. A bright conservatory leads from the dining room onto the terrace and garden. This floor also includes a utility room, a modern bathroom and a useful storage vault and workshop.
The main entrance is on the ground floor, where the drawing room's full-height, west-facing sash windows bathe the space in natural light. The panoramic outlook across the city and surrounding hills from this room, and its balcony, is truly spectacular. A withdrawing room and cloakroom complete this level.
On the first floor, the principal bedroom enjoys the same remarkable views as the drawing room, accompanied by a spacious bathroom/dressing room. The second floor provides three further double bedrooms, a shower room and a study on the half-landing.
The house is set back behind an attractive, formally landscaped front garden. To the rear lies a delightful west-facing garden of approximately 100 feet, thoughtfully designed to create a series of outdoor “rooms” and to make the most of the sun throughout the day. Mature trees, plants and shrubs provide seasonal interest, and a gate at the end of the garden leads onto a raised pavement offering an alternative pedestrian route into the city. Residents' parking is readily available.

Darlington Place is one of Bath's most desirable addresses – a quiet, no-through road accessed from the lower part of Bathwick Hill. From here, the Bathwick Meadows are directly accessible: Several acres of National Trust land offering superb dog walking and some of the finest vantage points over the city.
The terrace occupies an enviable south-westerly elevated position, commanding sweeping views across Bath. The Kennet & Avon Canal is a short stroll away, providing opportunities for walking, cycling, boating and fishing, along with a traffic-free route to the city centre and Bath Spa railway station. Local amenities include a nearby Tesco Metro, and the area is well served by excellent schools such as Widcombe, Bathwick St Mary's, Prior Park College, King Edward's and The Royal High.
