Cranwells Park, Bath, BA1

Siena is one of two houses designed by William Bertram and set centrally within its quiet plot.

Approached via a private pillared and gated driveway, it stands with a high-pitched roof, under which there are three stories of immaculately presented accommodation boasting flexible use as well as ample room sizes.

The hallway is access via a bright, glazed porch and leads to a generous open plan sitting dining room with south and west facing windows plus doors to both private terraces. The sitting room has a stunning under-recessed fireplace and built-in cabinetry either side of the chimney breast and a beam originally from the Theatre Royal. The ground floor accommodation is completed by a study, cloakroom and semi vaulted kitchen.

Upstairs there are 5 contemporary bedrooms, 3 shower rooms, unique building features and fine views over the wrap-around gardens and over the rooftops to hillside beyond.

The driveway provides hardstanding for 4 vehicles and leads to the double garage building above which sits a studio/hobby room or annexe. This room has a kitchenette and makes an ideal work from home space away from the house or area for guests.

The gardens enjoy the best of aspects with ample lawned areas, a lovely greenhouse, and a summery BBQ terrace off the kitchen.
