Terraced house for sale in Bath BA1, 4 Bedroom

A beautifully refurbished three storey Grade 11 listed Georgian townhouse with four bedrooms and three bathrooms and a stunning kitchen/diner on the ground floor with bi-fold doors opening out onto a substantial terraced garden, right in the heart of Georgian Bath.

The vendor says: “We’ve absolutely loved living here since purchasing the house in 2002. Almost five years ago we added a kitchen/diner rear extension and it completely transformed the house. It’s rare to find a ground floor kitchen in a Georgian townhouse, and ours is a very light filled room with bi-fold doors opening onto the garden. Both the kitchen and utility room have underfloor heating with Mandarin natural stone floor tiles, making it very cosy in the winter. We have a beautiful kitchen that every visitor remarks upon with electronically opening wall units, quartz work tops and a large island with wine fridge. The built-in appliances include: A neff double oven, a Bosch dishwasher, a Zanussi tall fridge and separate freezer and a neff microwave. There is a Franke 3 in 1 kettle tap which saves a huge amount of time and an aqua glass splash back links the base and wall units. Our dining table comfortably seats 10 people which makes it a great entertaining space. In summer, with the bi-fold doors thrown open, the sun floods into the house and it really does look amazing! “

“There are two reception rooms on the ground floor which connect. One has a lovely Bath stone fireplace with log burner and the other is arranged as a play room for our children. The hall has a black and white Mandarin natural stone floor which looks stunning as you enter the house from the street. There is plenty of storage on the ground floor – you can never have too much storage!”

“Upstairs there are two further floors. On the first floor is the master bedroom which overlooks the garden. It has an oak floor, a bespoke walk-in wardrobe and en-suite shower room. The house looks out onto the gardens of the Georgian houses on Belmont with plenty of greenery given its city centre location. At the front of the house is a large double bedroom with en-suite shower room. All four of the bedrooms have original cast iron fireplaces. On the top floor there are two more bedrooms, both with built-in wardrobes, and a bathroom with a bath and separate shower. We have turned the top floor landing into a home office given its size. The roof is double pitched and has two lofts: One is half boarded for storage and both are very well insulated. All of the sash windows in the house have been fully draft proofed making the whole house much warmer than when we first moved in.”

“We have totally re-modelled the garden over recent years by creating 6 separate terraces, each of which is surprisingly large. Our kitchen opens out onto flagstones from the original courtyard which has wooden steps leading to a decked first tier, then onto flagstones on the second tier and then onto two more levels of maintenance free artificial grass. Finally the top tier has flint shingle and a square of flagstones perfect for a table and chairs or a barbeque. The top tier would be perfect for a summer house to be installed should the new owner desire. Each terrace is separated by glass balustrades. Under the first terrace is a purpose-built storage space perfect for bicycles and recycling bins. On one side of our garden is the lovely old wall of the Countess of Huntingdon’s Chapel, which is now the Museum of Bath Architecture. Our garden is separated from our other neighbours by a wall running its entire length giving us complete privacy.”

“Because of the central location it is very easy to walk to all of the amenities that cosmopolitan Bath offers. We have residents’ central zone parking and as part of the Vineyards Residents’ Committee we can also easily secure central zone visitor parking permits. We also rent a car parking space very near to the house which is something that the new owners could also apply for.”

Excellent state and private schools are nearby, and Bath Spa station has high speed train services to London Paddington (90 minutes). Junction 18 of the M4 is 10 miles to the north.
