About this property

This wonderful family home provides a highly versatile layout of accommodation over two floors with the addition of a cellar. The extensive terraced gardens provide a fabulous opportunity to plant and utilise as you wish and off-street parking in this established area is a premium advantage.

This charming period home combines classic architectural appeal with modern practicality, offering a warm and welcoming atmosphere in a highly convenient setting close to the heart of town. Over time, both Georgian and Victorian elements have been tastefully updated to reflect contemporary living standards while retaining their original character. A central hallway with staircase gives access to a spacious and light-filled living room, which opens into a cozy family snug – perfect for relaxing evenings. The open-plan kitchen and dining room features dual-aspect windows, fitted cabinetry, a central island, integrated (NEFF) appliances and extensive shelving on an elevated dining area. A door from here leads to a delightful conservatory, with a mature vine trailing across its glazed roof, opening to the front garden. To the rear, a large workshop or hobby space provides excellent versatility and is connected internally via a utility/store area with outdoor access – ideal for muddy boots and bicycles. Between the workshop and the conservatory is an additional flexible-use room which includes a sink, washing machine plumbing and WC. Upstairs, a galleried landing leads to a generous principal bedroom with dual-aspect windows that frame expansive views across the town. Cleverly designed with a feature headboard wall, it includes built-in storage throughout. Another double bedroom lies opposite, also enjoying front-facing views. At the back of the house, a vaulted third bedroom includes skylights and its own staircase access to the rear garden, with an adjoining room that makes an ideal home office or dressing area. The main bathroom is well-appointed with a separate shower enclosure, while an adjacent luxury wet room includes a statement egg-shaped bath beneath a vaulted ceiling – providing a serene retreat for relaxation.

Outside
An ornate wrought iron front gate within the stone wall has an overthrow with lamp holder leading to a shallow garden and a wisteria clad entrance. To the side is a wooden gate to a level, side garden with foliage screen and large paved seating area. Adjacent to the front gate is external access to the two room cellar. To the side of the conservatory, a series of winding steps ascend to a number of terraced garden levels with a combination of lawn and room for planting of vegetables or shrubs with a number of established fruit and fig trees. From here, the view across the town is completely uninterrupted. A further set of steps lead up to the southern boundary with a gate to Well Path. On the opposite side of the road, at the front is parking behind an established wall where a garage once stood and could be reinstated as needed.

Situation
Set in the heart of this pretty market town on the banks of the River Avon, there are far-reaching elevated views across the valley. There is convenient access on foot to the many shops, boutiques and restaurants in the town. There are a wide selection of country walks to neighbouring villages with the Kennet and Avon canal a short distance away and the railway station less than a half a mile walk. Mainline trains run to Weymouth and Bristol, with Bath only a 10 minute journey away. Ease of access is also provided to London Paddington. The number of quaint shops, pubs, and tea rooms in the town are too numerous to mention, but a joy to explore and find. Bristol Airport is less than a 30 mile drive or a transfer bus can be found at Bath Spa railway station.
