Full Details for 4 Bedroom Detached for sale in Bath, BA2 :

The Rocks is a stunning family home surrounded by views of the valleys and complete tranquillity. Gavin and his family were drawn here 8 years ago by the beautiful location and the easy access to Bath and beyond. �We weren�t aware when we moved here, but the area is often referred to as the Golden Triangle as it is within easy reach of London and Bath and is a very sought after area to live in,� explains Gavin. Over the years Gavin has transformed The Rocks and upgraded the structure of the property. As Gavin works from home, it was important for him to be in a creative and light atmosphere. �We began by improving the stone work, building a stone wall in the garden to increase privacy, then we rebuilt the roof, redecorated throughout and put a lot of TLC into the garden,� says Gavin. His favourite room is the middle sitting room where he relaxes by the open fire in the winter and enjoys the sunshine in summer. �The house is lovely and airy and when you gaze some 30 miles into the distance from the bedroom over the valleys, you become completely relaxed,� he says. The garden has three patios, one of which is a covered veranda. Surrounded by trees and plants it is a beautiful setting for barbeques, parties and summer brunches. �We have a tree house with slide that is similar to a pirate ship which my daughter loves exploring and it is lovely to know that she is having fun and also safe,� explains Gavin. Nearby there are country pubs, community halls, arts clubs and the renowned country house hotel, Babington House. �The area is full of life and there is so much to do and see and I believe Bath is one of the best places for state and private education: you are spoilt for choice,� says Gavin. Nearby there is Freshford Church of England Primary School, Prior Park College, Royal High School Bath, Monkton Combe, and King Edward�s School to name but a few, as well as the very well regarded University of Bath. �Being in the catchment area for Freshford Church of England Primary School was very important to me for my daughter�s education,� says Gavin. �When you move here you are very much part of the community with lots of social events,� explains Gavin. �The Rocks is a fantastic family home and we wouldn�t be leaving if we hadn�t decided to opt for a different lifestyle and move abroad,� explains Gavin. �I will miss the outstanding views and hope the next owner of The Rocks enjoys them as much as we have done,� he concludes.
