Description

This stunning contemporary family house has been redesigned and reinvented by the current owners to an exacting standard.

Showcasing impressive lateral accommodation, the house offers five bedrooms and an abundance of living space over just two floors, with an additional annexe and integrated garage below, all within a secluded and peaceful setting.

The property is accessed through an impressive entrance in to a double height atrium, flooded with natural light, with wide steps leading up to the hallway. From here is accessed the main living space of the house, a hugely impressive room encompassing the living room, dining room and kitchen, which flow seamlessly from one to another. The arrangement of the space is cleverly designed by the owners, with high attention to detail paid to the interior design. The ceilings are vaulted with beautiful exposed beams and the room is surrounded by large windows and sliding doors which take in the view of the wrap around garden.

The main living room is beautifully presented and cosy, with sliding doors leading out on to the rear garden. The British Standard kitchen is stylishly designed with timeless fittings, including a walk-in pantry with crittal doors, Fisher & Paykel appliances and a large window from which to take in the view across Bath towards Royal Crescent and beyond. Adjacent to the kitchen are both a dining area and a further sitting area, which creates a wonderful family space, with sliding doors out on to the sunny terrace in the front garden.

On the first floor is a sumptuous principal bedroom with walk-in wardrobe and en suite bathroom. The room has wonderful volume with tall vaulted ceilings and wrap around windows as well as a sliding door out on to a private balcony from which to enjoy the far reaching views of Bath. Also on this floor is a spacious office overlooking the entrance hall, which could be utilised as a further bedroom if required.

On the floor below is the family accommodation, with three generous bedrooms, all with en suite facilities, as well as a snug/playroom and a utility room.

Garden

The property is tucked away from the roadside and a driveway leads up to the front door and the garage. The garden and grounds are largely laid to lawn and wrap around the property with a range of areas from which to enjoy the setting. A large terrace leads from the main living space at the front of the property with attractive decking and soft furnishings providing a luxurious area to relax and from which to enjoy the view of Bath.

A large integrated garage is situated at the top of the drive, which is ideal for storage as well as for cars. To the left hand side of the garage is a separate playroom, which could be utilised for a number of purposes including as an office or an annexe. A separate WC services this area.
