This semi-detached Bath stone villa is an exceptional family home in immaculate condition. Accommodation is arranged over four floors and is packed with carefully restored period details including original cornicing, ceiling roses, fireplaces and window shutters.

On the lower ground floor, the light-filled kitchen has triple aspect windows - at one end glazed double doors open onto the garden dining terrace.

A central island unit doubles up as a breakfast bar and there's room for extra storage cupboards. Across the hall, the dining room features an original stone fireplace and built in cupboards; there are glazed double doors here too, opening onto the front courtyard. Storage has been well planned throughout this home: On this floor built-in floor-to-ceiling cupboards line the hall walls and there's a storage vault as well as the generous-sized utility room.

The understated décor in the elegant entrance hall on the ground floor highlights original features such as the limestone flooring and the cantilevered stone staircase with wrought iron railings and mahogany handrail. From here, the library is on one side and the drawing room on the other. Both rooms have wooden floorboards, fireplaces and large, shuttered windows. The study has floor-to-ceiling bookcases built in across two
walls. There's a bedroom on this level too, as well as a WC.

Up to the first floor, the elegant ceiling height continues to create a sense of spaciousness in the principal bedroom suite which includes a modern bathroom with bath, double basin vanity and shower. There are two further bedrooms on this floor and a WC, while on the second floor there's a bathroom and two dressing rooms.

A level, walled garden wraps around three sides of the house. It's a private space, mostly lawn, with a paved terrace following the line of the house. There's a gate in the front wall, allowing access onto the street and, at the rear, hard standing on which there's a wooden-built summerhouse split into a workshop / office and a garden shed. An enclosed front courtyard is a perfect spot for an additional dining space or for a
morning coffee.
