Property Description
Bathwick Hill House is an important Grade II* listed city residence designed by Edmund Henry Goodridge circa 1825 occupying an elevated, stately position overlooking Bath.
An excellent family oriented property that retains well-proportioned reception rooms and provides ample family and guest accommodation as well as a vast entertainment space.
The property is built to a square plan with a symmetrical layout and a grand, central transverse staircase adorned with lantern lights.
The principal reception rooms to three sides of the building spill onto a paved balustrade sun terrace which leads down to the gardens. A rose lined avenue leads to the pool house.
The original Italianate garden building set 30 metres East of Bathwick Hill House has subsequently been redesigned by Watson Bertram & Fell to form a luxurious swimming pool and leisure complex encased in sliding glass doors and Doric columns. To the outside of the pool house is a built in bbq for summer entertaining.
A sweeping gated driveway winds up past a modern studio and double garage and terminates by the main entrance and further garaging.
The Lodge House sits at the entrance to the driveway and is a two bedroom property with a single garage. Previously rented to staff or used as guest accommodation, this cosy house could also provide a regular rental income should one wish.
Situation
Bathwick Hill is one of the most prominent residential areas within the City of Bath. Little Claverton is located on the western side of the hill, benefiting from a fine aspect to the rear over open National Trust farmland. The outlook being towards Prior Park, Widcombe, with the City beyond.
The property is very conveniently placed for easy access to various nearby schools which include King Edwards, Prior Park and Monkton Combe. Also nearby is Bath University with its world class sports village.
The city centre of Bath, within easy walking distance, provides a full range of retail outlets together with many amenities including an excellent selection of restaurants, Bath Sports Centre, the Theatre Royal and the Thermae Spa. Complementing this is the open countryside to the rear with many beautiful walks. This, contrasting with the closeness of the city centre is, in our opinion, one of the major attractions to this property.
Communication links are excellent with a mainline rail link to London Paddington (journey time approximately 85 minutes) and Bristol Temple Meads (journey time approximately 15 minutes). Junction 18 of the M4 is approximately 10 miles north.
