Terraced house for sale in Prospect Place, Bathford, Bath BA1

Who could fail to fall for the charm of this wonderful cottage located in Bathford Village? The current owners have upgraded this period home over the years with new double glazed sash windows and gas central heating. Taking what was originally a 3 bedroom home, they have opened up 2 of the bedrooms into one beautiful master bedroom which is filled full of light and takes in those glorious views across the valley. The 2nd bedroom is a good sized single, but can accommodate a pull out double plus a study space if desired. The main bathroom is fresh and modern with the addition of a mixer shower over the bath.

Downstairs, you enter the property through a recently added front porch, well planned with fitted storage cupboards, perfect for those muddy boots, coats and dog leads! A further door opens up into the characterful sitting room, where the original flagstone floors and fireplace with log burner keep the character and sit beautifully alongside modern fresh décor and double glazed sash windows. An area under the stairs has been opened up to provide a suitable space for a dining table leaving lots of room for sofa seating. A step down brings you into the fresh and bright kitchen fitted in a shaker style with spaces for dishwasher, washing machine and fridge freezer. A latched door opens out onto a cute rear garden hideaway where you can enjoy a peaceful morning coffee surrounded by lush foliage. A useful shed and rear access is also found here.

A real standout feature of this property is the main garden area, which despite being effectively at the front is still really private and enjoys absolutely fabulous views across the valley towards Colerne. A lovely level area, laid to lawn with a generous patio for seating and framed by pretty cottage garden plants. In addition there is a good sized gravel section offering a great area for a storage shed. Imagine relaxing with a drink at the end of the day enjoying this peaceful location whilst the sun goes down. Of course, you also have your rear "secret garden" for your morning coffee as well! To the front, there is an off street driveway section and a small raised path bringing you through the gate towards this beautiful cottage.

Set on a quiet side road in Bathford village, all amenities are within walking distance. A hop skip and a stroll away is the Browns Folly nature reserve and further countryside walks. Bathford is one of the most sought after villages in the area, partly due to its close proximity to the Georgian city of Bath, but also due to its local community feel. Village facilities include a social club, volunteer run village shop, the popular Crown village pub which offers wonderful food options, an outstanding rated primary school, C of E Church and village hall. The buses run very regularly to Bath and the riverside walks and nature reserve on your doorstep make this a fabulous oasis in the countryside. Access to the M4 for the road network is excellent and also the main line rail station in Bath is an easy commute away.
