Very spacious detached contemporary five bedroom home, immaculately presented, with off road parking, garage, and gardens quietly located in a cul de sac near to Bath University, at the top of Bathwick Hill, just 1.8 miles from the heart of Georgian Bath.

The vendor says: “We have lived in this house since 2016 when it was built by Rathbourne Ltd, and the easy contemporary design has really suited us. The house is exceptionally light, spacious and airy and ideal for entertaining. There is a large kitchen/family area with bi-fold doors out to the substantial deck, which really brings the outside in. The kitchen has grey wood units and an island all fitted with Corian worktops. There are fitted appliances including a Bosch double oven and microwave, a Bosch 5 ring gas hob with overhead extractor, wine fridge, dishwasher and fridge/freezer. There is a large dining area and sitting area where we have a wall-mounted TV. We have often had parties for 30 plus friends and family in this room, which is perfect for this number of guests. The sitting room is also spacious, and we have had storage units built by Neville Johnson to house the many treasures we have bought back from our travels. In addition, there is a good size cloakroom, hall storage cupboard and a useful utility room on this floor.”

“Upstairs on the first floor there are three spacious double bedrooms: one has an en suite shower room, the second has been repurposed as a walk-in dressing room, and the principal bedroom has an en suite shower room with Jack and Jill basins. A family bathroom with bath makes up this floor. On the top floor is the large guest suite with built-in storage and an ensuite shower room; plus bedroom five which we currently use as an office. The whole house has good proportions and is decorated with a neutral palette of white, taupe and grey, making it contemporary and extremely easy to live in.”

“The front garden has a lawn and a paved driveway with parking for several cars and there is a single garage. The garden, which gets the sun most of the day, wraps around the house to the rear and is laid to lawn with a substantial decking area in front of the bifold doors. There is also a lovely patio area which is perfect for our morning coffee.”

“The location of the house has been brilliant. Woodland Grove is a small cul-de-sac so it is very quiet, but has a lovely community feel. We are so fortunate that we are close to the University (0.3 miles) and can take advantage of their amazing sports facilities – gym, pool and tennis courts, as well as feeding the ducks at the lake. The American Museum with stunning gardens and views is 0.8 miles away and we are so close to many National Trust walks from the house, including the spectacular Skyline walk. There is easy access to excellent state and private schools which include King Edwards, Prior Park and Monkton Combe. State schools Ralph Allen, Beechen Cliff and Hayesfield School are also within the catchment area. The city centre of Bath, 1.8 miles away on foot down the hill, has a full range of retail outlets with many excellent restaurants, the Theatre Royal and the Thermae Spa. There are frequent buses up Bathwick hill to the University for those that don’t fancy the walk! Communication links are excellent with a mainline rail link at Bath Spa station to London Paddington (journey time approximately 80 minutes) and Bristol Temple Meads (journey time approximately 15 minutes) as well as Southampton. Junction 18 of the M4 is 11.4 miles to the north.”

“We have really enjoyed living here in this modern house which has a lovely flow to it, providing flexible accommodation and a very comfortable lifestyle. The location, with all of Georgian Bath on our doorstep as well as gorgeous countryside close by, has been perfect for us.”
