AGENTS NOTES Nestled on the lower slopes of Solsbury Hill and enjoying breathtaking panoramic views over the Avon to Browns Folly & Bathampton, this 1048sqft three bedroom 1930s semi detached family home also has well tended south facing gardens and a two car rear driveway. Improved in the last few years with double glazing and gas central heating, the property could benefit from some further upgrading to reach top potential but there is enormous scope for someone to create their perfect abode by exercising some practical skills. Orthodox original layout of two receptions and kitchen downstairs. Three bedrooms (two generous doubles and a single) plus bathroom on the first floor. Rear & side lean tos with W.C. Two car rear drive and 74ft x 23ft front gardens. No onward chain. Sole Agents.
We have on file at our offices a selection of current quotes for refurbishment works - please ask if you would like information on these.
Historical Notes - Batheaston Villa on Bailbrook Lane has a significant place in Bath society history. This large 18th century house, owned later by Sir John and Lady Miller, was famous for Lady Miller's weekly poetry contests in the 1770's (mentioned disparagingly in Horace Walpole's letters and attended by celebrities including Bath poet Christopher Anstey, the Duchess of Northumberland, the second Viscount Palmerston and Lord Carlisle). The custom was to offer an original verse to an Italian antique vase (excavated at Frascati in 1759). Lady Miller, the 'High Priestess', then crowned the winner with myrtle.
