Property description
Summerground was built to a high standard in the late 1920’s and benefits from features such as panelled doors and stylish ceiling coving. The house has been renovated and extended over the years to provide spacious accommodation in the most spectacular of plots. The entrance hall is flanked by a cosy study on one side and the second reception room on the other with oak flooring flowing throughout. Adjacent is the kitchen with plenty of room for a dining table by the picture window. The sitting room is a wonderful room, again with the smart oak flooring, plus a Bath stone fireplace fitted with a ‘Jet Master’ fire. It benefits from a triple aspect with double doors opening on to the garden terrace with a lovely far-reaching view over the garden and valley. The four bedrooms and two bathrooms lead off a spacious first floor landing. The principal suite has a dual aspect benefitting from those stunning 180-degree views, plus a bathroom consisting of both bath and separate shower. The second bedroom has the feel of living up in the trees with the view filtering through the branches of an acer tree. There are two further bedrooms and the family bathroom.
Outside
The grounds of Summerground cover three acres, with panoramic views towards the west including the American Museum and to the east, the Limpley Stoke Valley. A gravel drive to the front provides parking, a front terrace with a deep herbaceous border and a mature beech hedge provides a neat backdrop and privacy. The garden of three quarters of an acre is predominantly to the side with a dining terrace adjacent to the house and a large lawn interspersed with several deep borders full of seasonal planting a hidden seating area and a spring fed pond add to the charm of this special garden. The lawn slopes down to the vegetable garden and orchard of productive fruit trees. Trees form a border at the far end dividing the railway line and River Avon. Of further note is the remaining 2.3 acres of land that is an integral part of Summerground running along the length of Crowe Hill. A very special addition as it protects the view of the wonderful Limpley Stoke Valley.
Situation
Limpley Stoke is a popular village just five miles to Bath Spa Railway Station making it great for commuters. The Hop Pole Inn will be re-opening as a community pub, a great bonus to the area. The neighbouring village of Freshford has further amenities including a country pub, well-regarded primary school and The Galleries Shop and Cafe. Homewood Park is a country house hotel and spa. There is the added benefit of the charming Freshford railway station which enables commuters to travel into Bath and then onto London (Paddington). It also provides easy access for work or school to the west to Bath and east to Bradford on Avon and beyond. The immediate area is well served by state schools including the well-regarded Freshford Church School and for secondary schools, there is St Laurence’s in Bradford on Avon (the school bus picks up in the village), as well as Ralph Allen in Bath. In the private sector, there is Monkton Combe School and both King Edward’s and Prior Park are found on the south side of Bath.
