Commuters and travellers are well served by nearby Bath Spa railway station, providing direct rail connections to Bristol and London.

The Property

Extended in 2018 to almost double its original footprint, this exceptional home has been beautifully modernised and thoughtfully reimagined to create a striking and highly functional living space. Clever design ensures a natural flow between rooms, while perfectly framing the far-reaching views from its elevated position.

The house offers an abundance of space with a wonderful sense of openness, combining an open-plan feel with well considered separation where needed, such as the utility and boot rooms, alongside excellent built-in storage throughout. Architectural details including high slanted ceilings and carefully placed skylights add character and interest, while large openings create a seamless connection with the outdoors.

Sustainability and efficiency are at the forefront, with the property achieving an outstanding EPC rating of A, an exceptionally rare feature for a home of this scale. Contemporary upgrades sit harmoniously alongside restored original parquet flooring, blending modern living with retained character.

Externally, the property is equally impressive. Wraparound landscaped gardens feature a variety of patio areas designed to capture the sun at different times of day, offering ideal spaces for relaxing and entertaining. The views are truly spectacular, stretching across Bath from Lansdown to Browns Folly, and encompassing landmarks such as Solsbury Hill and Freezing Hill Lane, with the canal and open fields, often dotted with grazing sheep, providing a picturesque foreground.

This is a unique home, distinguished by its bold yet tasteful exterior of dark green solid wood windows and cedar wood cladding, creating a look that feels modern, eco-conscious, and effortlessly stylish.
