Full Details for 5 Bedroom Detached for sale in Bath, BA2 :
Five bedroom detached family home located on the southern outskirts of Bath on Southstoke Lane. Comprising two reception rooms, kitchen/breakfast room, study, two bathrooms, separate garden studio, double garage and gardens.
As soon as we viewed this property, we were drawn in by the surprising space and light of the rooms. The house appears deceptively compact on the outside but reveals its true size on the inside, says Mary. We could immediately see its potential and imagine ourselves living in it.
When we first moved into this house we had three young children and it made a perfect family base for us. We transformed the house to enhance the natural light and space. The kitchen/dining room with its French doors opening directly out onto a charming sunny terrace overlooking the sunken garden, is a lovely room for entertaining. Warmed by the Aga, it is a great meeting place for all the family. The triple aspect sitting room, cosy in Winter with the Jetmaster fire, provides an exceptionally light and sunny room to relax in. We also expanded the property onto a third level with the creation of a fifth attic bedroom, ensuring there was plenty of space for our children.
The garden has once again been designed with a family in mind, continues Mary. The sunken garden provides a magical adventure playground for all ages, and is a wildlife haven for many species of birds and animals as well as rare plants and trees. Two mature Medlar trees share the space with an enchanting Wendy House set in the rocks. Overlooking this garden is a stunning 24ft long artists studio, equipped with water and electricity: it provides an inspirational space for any kind of work or play.
This house has all the qualities you could need in a family home. It is close to Bath and yet as well as belonging to a very lively village community, borders beautiful countryside which abounds with footpaths and endless walking and sporting opportunities. The centre of Bath is a five minute drive away and there is a bus stop just at the end of the road. It provides a quiet family life whilst being near excellent primary, secondary and private schools, and a thriving city centre, concludes Mary.
