Entry Hill, Bath, Somerset, BA2

Best and final offers by 3:00pm Monday 7th October 2024. An unmodernised detached house set in approximately half an acre.

Description

A wonderful opportunity to acquire a detached, unmodernised family house set in about half an acre, with scope for extension and refurbishment, or potential to build a new house, subject to obtaining the necessary consents.

Arranged laterally over two floors with a large cellar floor, the property has excellent proportions, which allows natural light to fill the house. The house is entered via a generous entrance hall at the centre of house and provides access to two large reception rooms, both with dual aspects and views over the garden, and a kitchen at the rear. A lean to extension sits to the rear of one reception room, and there are two store cupboards and a separate WC accessed between the kitchen and the back door. This rear door leads to a courtyard and opposite is access to the garage, which is currently used for storage.

Upstairs, there are three bedrooms, all excellent sizes with two of the rooms enjoying views of the garden and beyond. There is also a bathroom on this floor.

From the entrance hall, steps lead down to a significant cellar, which has potential to be utilised for a number of purposes.

Outside

The house sits in a very generous flat plot of about 0.49 acres, which is rare for the centre of Bath. It is well planted with mature trees which provide a lovely outlook from the house and a good deal of privacy with views out of the city beyond.

The house is accessed from Entry Hill via an attractive stone pillar gateway and a long drive up to the house. There is off street parking in front of the house for multiple cars. Wooden gates lead to a gravelled pathway to the front door.
