Batheaston House

About this property

Nestled between seven undulating hills, reminiscent of Rome's iconic landscape, the village of Batheaston unfolds to the east, offering a leisurely riverside or canal stroll from Bath's Georgian City centre. Within this idyllic setting, a recently refurbished modern family home graces the elevated corner plot, boasting five bedrooms, a sprawling private landscaped garden, and an inviting roof terrace.

As you step across the threshold, a warm, wooden-floored hallway unfolds, setting the stage for the wonders that lie beyond. To the left, a family sitting room invites with irresistibly comfortable corduroy sofas, a thoughtfully stocked bookshelf, an electric keyboard to spark creativity and a state-of-the-art 65-inch Smart TV complemented by an impressive surround sound system—a perfect haven for intimate entertainment evenings. The heart of the home unfolds as the hallway guides you towards a bespoke Haeker kitchen diner. Here, an expanse of floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors seamlessly merges the interior with the garden, bathing the space in natural light. Underfoot, underfloor heating creates a luxurious touch, while a wall-mounted 60-inch Smart TV, electronic window blinds, and an integrated Sonos speaker system add modern convenience. The sleek island unit, adorned with a wine fridge and ample storage, complements the clutter-free environment. Bosch appliances, including a coffee machine, milk frother, toaster, and more, transform this culinary haven into a muse for your inner chef.

Venture upstairs to unveil the master bedroom suite—a luminous sanctuary nestled within the eaves of the house. The super king bed, adorned with a rustic wooden headboard, invites blissful repose. A walk-through wardrobe provides ample space for your holiday wardrobe. The ensuite marble-clad bathroom, complete with underfloor heating, features a glass-enclosed rainfall shower, a hand basin, and a toilet. Indulge in the Phoenix jacuzzi bath, a luxurious retreat enhanced by a quirky feature window offering a captivating view back into the bedroom.

Adjacent to the master suite, two exquisitely appointed bedrooms await—an inviting king-size bedroom and a charming twin-bedded room. These rooms share a separate marble-clad bathroom boasting a glass-enclosed rainfall shower, toilet, and wash basin. Downstairs, two additional king-size double bedrooms, each adorned with premium-quality 220 thread count Egyptian cotton, promise the ultimate sleep experience. A generous marble-tiled family bathroom featuring underfloor heating, a double-ended bathtub, a heated towel rack, and a glass-enclosed rainfall shower ensures the comfort of all occupants.

Step into the enclosed landscaped rear garden for moments of tranquillity and relaxation amidst lush greenery. Ascend to the higher roof terrace for a private escape, ideal for sundowners, barbecues, or simply lounging on the plush cushions of the L-shaped sofa while basking in the sun's warmth. Beneath the terrace, a double garage awaits, equipped with exercise amenities, including weights, a rowing machine, yoga mats, and a professional punch bag.

Batheaston, with a history dating back to Neolithic times and roads built by the Romans, is now an inviting village surrounded by green belts and within the Cotswold Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Beautiful walks into the countryside abound, including the enchanting surroundings of Little Solsbury Hill—an early Iron Age walled village and prominent local landmark. The River Avon gracefully flows nearby into Bath, and the village centre provides essential amenities, including a convenience store, newsagents, post office, chemist, doctors, dentist, vets, a pub, café, and fast-food outlets.

The city of Bath, a short stroll away, captivates with its excellent selection of High Street and independent shops, galleries, cafes, bars, and restaurants. Bath's vibrant atmosphere extends to regular festivals, encompassing art, literature, music, and theatre, as well as being home to Bath Rugby. The city's allure includes renowned attractions such as The Roman Baths, Holburne Museum, Victoria Art Gallery, Bath Abbey, the Assembly Rooms, Pulteney Bridge, Royal Crescent, The Circus, and the Thermae Spa—all within a pleasant stroll through the captivating streets and alleys portrayed in TV's Bridgerton. Guided walks, ghost tours, history and comedy tours, open-top bus rides, and riverboat trips further enrich the city's offerings.

Bath Spa train station, the Coach station, and most of the city are approximately three miles from the property. A regular local bus service operates between Batheaston (Morris Lane or Stambridge) and Bath Coach Station (Dorchester Street), taking between 15-20 minutes. Convenient transportation options within the city include walking, Uber, and local taxis, rendering a car unnecessary for exploring the shops, theatres, museums, restaurants, bars, parks, and amenities within the city centre.
