A superb and historic house set in a beautiful landscape.
Tenure: Freehold
Situation: The St. Catherine Valley is a beautiful and extremely peaceful location to the north east of Bath, perfectly situated for easy access to the Georgian city of Bath and also from the A46 to Junction 18 of the M4 motorway. The valley is within an area of outstanding natural beauty and there are numerous walks from the property. Bath, one of only three UK World Heritage Cities, has a wealth of educational, social, cultural and recreational facilities, including the famous Roman Spa, Pump Rooms and museums. Bristol International Airport (45 minutes by car) is also within easy reach.

St. Catherine's End House is a delightful 17th century house in a wonderful unspoilt position overlooking the renowned St. Catherine Valley. Listed Grade II* with delightful stone elevations and steep gables with upright oval windows and stone mullioned windows with hood moulds and the fine heavy rounded stone mouldings of the main entrance doorway. The property is approached from a country lane through high wooden gates opening onto a gravel drive and extensive parking. Handsome gate piers with ornate pedestrian gates open onto the front garden and principal faade. Lawns sweep away to the east with a laburnum walk running along the boundary. A secluded heated swimming pool overlooks this garden and here, as everywhere within the house and
grounds, one can enjoy the panoramic pastoral views of the St. Catherine Valley.
Internally, St. Catherine's End House offers fine architectural details such as beamed ceilings, a
17th century staircase and stone fireplaces. A large kitchen/breakfast room (with large utility/boot room off) is a centre for family life. The library offers an informal sitting room, and both the fine drawing and dining room are elegant entertaining rooms. There are four bedrooms all with en suite bathrooms which is rare in a property of this period. The successful and pleasing interior design and good decoration make St. Catherine's End House a gem.
Beside the house, formerly the coach house, is now converted to a very high standard to provide a stylish cottage. There are two en suite bedrooms on the first floor above a large ground floor living space with neighbouring garage store. To the east is an enclosed formal parterre garden bordered and made private by a high hedge.
There is an independent office which may (subject to the necessary consents) be converted into staff accommodation.
A further building offers extensive garaging.
Accommodation: Reception hall, library, drawing room, dining room, kitchen/breakfast room, utility/boot room, cloakroom, master bedroom suite, 3 further bedroom suites.
Garden House: Large sitting room, kitchen, 2 bedroom suites and a ground floor garage/workshop.
Independent office, garage complex providing garaging for 4 plus cars, extensive parking, greenhouse, formal parterre garden and lawned garden, swimming pool. In all approx 1.5 acres.
Directions: From Junction 18 of the M4 motorway travel south on the A46. After the roundabout take the third left turning signed St. Catherine. Follow this lane past a reservoir on the right.
