After almost two decades at Henrietta Lodge, the owners are preparing to leave behind a home that has offered comfort, privacy and an enviable lifestyle since 2007.

Built in the early 2000s within the grounds of the former Bathwick St Mary's Junior School, this distinctive detached chalet style property combines contemporary design with practical, accessible living, all within easy walking distance of the centre of Bath. Attracted by the rarity of finding a detached home that offered such a peaceful setting alongside excellent access to city centre, they say. ‘It wasn’t easy to find everything we wanted in one property, but this fitted our requirements perfectly – it’s been a wonderful home.’

The house is arranged over one floor and includes three bedrooms, one with en-suite facilities, a light-filled kitchen, sitting/dining room, study and a family bathroom. Originally designed for a wheelchair user, it benefits from wider door openings, creating an enhanced sense of space and ease of movement throughout.

The property has also proved ideal for entertaining, with large glass doors opening directly onto the garden to create an effortless connection between indoors and out. ‘We have enjoyed many family get-togethers here,’ say the owners. ‘Being able to open up the house to the garden makes it a lovely sociable space.’

Gardens surround three sides of the house, providing plenty of opportunity for keen gardeners as well as a number of sunny seating areas to enjoy throughout the day.
The sitting room is undoubtedly a favourite feature. Flooded with natural light from floor-to-ceiling glazing and large sliding doors, it enjoys attractive views across the gardens and offers a changing backdrop through the seasons. ‘It’s such a bright and sunny room,’ the owners say.

Henrietta Park sits directly opposite the house, providing an ideal setting for morning walks and summer picnics, while the River Avon is just a five-minute stroll away. Bath’s shops, restaurants, bars and cultural attractions are all within easy, level reach, allowing residents to enjoy the best of city living. Secure gated parking for two cars is an added advantage so close to the city centre.

‘Henrietta Park opposite and the easy walk into Bath give us the perfect balance between city convenience and peaceful surroundings.’

‘There’s a strong sense of community here with neighbours gathering for summer and Christmas celebrations and always willing to help when needed.’

‘We’ll miss the privacy and the wonderful lifestyle we’ve enjoyed here for almost twenty years.’
