About this property

A two bedroom terraced home located in fashionable Widcombe, with its unique blend of city and glorious countryside. In one direction are walks along the canal and Skyline or across 'Halfpenny Bridge' directly to the railway station and city centre.

Prior Park Gardens is an attractive row of artisan cottages, on one side of a pedestrian walkway. Such a wonderful position to be, off the sought after Widcombe Hill with a short stroll to its wonderful ‘village within a town’ that Widcombe Parade has fashionably become.
Each house on the terrace has a front garden, No 5 is enclosed by low stone walling and is a gravel garden with borders of herbs and shrubs. As this is a pedestrian terrace and a no-through path, the garden to the front is enjoyed, as any would be, with seating to relax and unwind. The entrance hall with its stylish and practical tiled flooring flows through to the kitchen at the rear. The front sitting room benefits from the coved ceiling of the period and a bay of tall sash windows. A further more modern feature and currently very popular, is a central cream enamel wood burning stove, adding to the charm of this room. The second reception room is perfectly placed as a dining room next to the kitchen. The kitchen is fitted with units on either side and to the rear is a walk-in larder, plus a door opening out to the courtyard; perfect for summer lunches with room for a café table and chairs as well as potted plants.
The first floor houses two bedrooms and the bathroom. The principal bedroom has two sash windows to the front, a period fireplace and fitted cupboards and the bathroom is of note, with its attractive free-standing claw foot bath, as well as a separate shower.

Situation
Widcombe is known as a fashionable and popular artisan quarter of Bath with the shops, bars and independent businesses all offering a certain creativity, style and artistry about them. Widcombe Parade itself benefits from a variety of independent shops including a delicatessen, florist, framers and coffee shop. To cover home-life needs, there is the Aga cookware shop, a fireplace specialist and a bespoke curtain boutique. The Parade alone offers three public houses including the well regarded White Hart. On a practical note, there is also a small supermarket, dentist, pharmacist and doctors surgery. Prior Park Garden Centre nearby is a well-regarded plant specialist and now includes giftware, a café and farm shop. Bath University is located at the top of the hill. There is a pedestrian bridge at the end of Widcombe Parade crossing the River Avon and leads directly into Bath Spa Railway Station. A level walk continues into the city centre itself, providing excellent cultural and leisure amenities including many fine restaurants, specialist shops, museums, art galleries and theatres.
