Full Details for 3 Bedroom Semi-Detached for sale in Bath, BA1 :

Chapel House is a unique and delightful property, just over 1 mile from the centre of Bath. “It is an ‘upside down’ converted chapel, dating from 1870’s, with the open plan living area on the first floor we not only get the privacy we desire, but have the added bonus of taking advantage of the fabulous light, which floods into the space through the magnificent mullioned windows. During the summer we can throw open all the windows and it is absolutely lovely, so peaceful and quiet. One would never know we were so close to the city centre.” Downstairs there is a study and two double bedrooms, the master bedroom is en-suite and also benefits from having direct access to an enclosed garden, whilst the second benefits from a separate shower-room. “I'd spent a nomadic life in the military travelling around and then I found Chapel House,” says David. “It was so unique and full of character, and although it required some work: we knocked down a wall, put in central heating, a new kitchen, wood burner and stripped the upstairs wooden floor boards, I knew that this would be the place to finally put down some roots. Its wonderful location was also a deciding factor - just through Victoria Park and the Royal Crescent and we find ourselves in the centre of Bath.” Sandy adds, “We decorated the Chapel in neutral tones using a splash of ochre and burnt orange to add warmth, with a feature wall and an eclectic blend of rustic pine and oriental antique furniture our home was complete. It is great when entertaining our friends because whilst cooking in the open planned kitchen we can still converse and interact with each other, which means no- one ever feels left out. After dinner there is nothing better than relaxing in the comfy leather sofas sitting snug by the wood- burning fire. In the summer we often opt for a BBQ in our private garden which has an old stone wall plus a huge fig tree, which makes a lovely feature. Apart from our friends spending quality time with us, they all love the fact that we are able to walk into the centre of Bath. Our postcode is BA1; therefore you can leave the car and take a stroll to the shops, sample the incredible range of restaurants and markets, or just embrace the fabulous heritage that surrounds us.” David continues, “As we have a dog that requires walking twice a day, every day, we take advantage of Victoria Park being on our doorstep for many reasons, here we meet with friends, go to occasional festivals, watch air balloons go off and visit the botanical gardens. That said, as lovely as it is to venture out into the city of Bath, we both like nothing more than returning to our unique, spacious and full of genuine characterful home to relax and simply enjoy life!”
