About this property

Located on the lower slopes of Widcombe and within walking distance to the train station, this four storey Grade II Listed home is well-presented and full of architectural features.

Southcot Place is a handsome terrace of Grade II Listed town houses with a central green. The entrance hall of No 5 is noteworthy, with centuries old, but beautifully laid, Bath stone flagstones. Throughout the house period features have been retained including the cast iron fireplace in the front sitting room and the wide sash windows with working shutters. Adjacent is a ground floor bedroom which has a view of the walled garden and is served by a smart shower room. The first floor drawing room is well-proportioned with tall, corniced ceiling plus a full height sash window with a pleasant aspect. The bedroom/study to the rear has a view through the trees towards the Abbey. On the second floor are two double bedrooms with far-reaching views to the rear plus the family bathroom. On the lower ground floor is an open-plan bespoke kitchen with hand painted units, a central island plus integrated appliances. The old Bath stone fireplace of the cooking range is still intact, stripped floorboards continue into the dining/sitting area with direct access up into the walled garden.

Outside
To the front of each of the townhouses is a low walled courtyard. To the rear the garden is enclosed by stone walling covered in a variety of climbers. The paved garden offers plenty of room for dining and relaxing bordered by flower beds and a pedestrian gate out to the path makes an easy walk into town.

Situation
Southcot Place is a small square off Lyncombe Hill. This fashionable area of Widcombe is walking distance to Bath Spa Station and the city centre. The popular independent shops, bars and businesses of Widcombe Parade add to the appeal of this address. There is a wine bar, a popular pub which has recently incorporated the Widcombe Deli into it, as well as a florist, convenience store, doctors, dentist, architects practice and coffee shop. It also benefits from a rural quality being close to National Trust land and the Kennet and Avon Canal. Bath University is located at the top of the hill and sought after schools including Widcombe Primary, Paragon Prep, Prior Park College, and King Edwards are all in the vicinity. Bath offers excellent cultural and leisure amenities including many fine restaurants, specialist shops, museums, art galleries and theatres.
