Radford, Bath BA2

An exceptional Georgian farmhouse with elegant Regency additions, this distinguished family home combines timeless period charm with refined modern living, all set within landscaped gardens and complemented by a separate annexe. The entrance hall, filled with natural light from both front and rear glazed doors sets the tone. To the left is a sitting room/library featuring a period fireplace, sash windows with working shutters and classic panelling. To the right is the impressive open-plan kitchen/dining space forming the heart of the home. Here, handcrafted and hand painted cabinetry, a central island with soft-toned granite worktops, a dresser-style wall of units, integrated appliances and a two-oven gas-fired Aga with separate summer module create a perfect blend of style and practicality. The dining area enjoys a charming period fireplace and dual-aspect garden views. There is also a separate pantry and cloakroom. A snug with slate flagstone flooring leads into the garden room/home office. The magnificent drawing room is a true highlight, boasting soaring corniced ceilings, two full-height windows with French doors all with working shutters overlooking the lawn and an ornate marble fireplace. Upstairs five well-appointed bedrooms are arranged around the landing. The superb principal suite within the Regency wing includes a spacious bedroom with views, bespoke cabinetry, a luxurious en-suite bathroom, dressing room (or sixth bedroom) and laundry room. Three further bedrooms overlook the front gardens and share a family bathroom, while a guest bedroom enjoys rear garden views and its own private bathroom. In addition, a former malt house has now been converted to a double garage with additional accommodation above, providing a one bedroom annexe.

Outside

Set within just over three and a half acres, the grounds are a true highlight of this exceptional home. An impressive approach is made through stone pillars and electric wrought iron gates, opening onto a sweeping circular gravel driveway flanked by level lawns. To the front and side, the gardens are richly planted with deep herbaceous borders, mature shrubs and established planting, creating colour and interest throughout the seasons. The grounds wrap around the house, leading to a rear terrace ideal for outdoor entertaining and an enclosed lawned garden beyond. Mature hedging provides the paddocks with a natural boundary from the surrounding fields. In addition to ample parking, a stone outbuilding incorporates garages with self-contained accommodation above, perfectly suited for guests, rental opportunities or a stylish home office.
