This classic Bath stone Regency villa has recently been refurbished and extended to exacting - and award-winning - standards by architect Anthony Paine. Its original 1846 proportions have been extended to include contemporary and practical living spaces that flow from room to room without any detriment to its original Georgian planform. The elegant hallway on the ground floor connects the rooms at the front and rear of the house. It's engineered wooden flooring with underfloor heating, leads you from the hall through the snug and into the generous kitchen/diner, where glass-panelled doors at the centre of a triple bay open on to the flagstone courtyard garden.

Light floods into the snug and kitchen diner through their side windows, as well as from the skylight above the utility wing of the kitchen. Every inch of the kitchen area has been cleverly utilised. Adjacent to the circular Silestone worktop and breakfast bar, hand-built painted floor-to-ceiling units discretely hide a cook centre, two ovens, microwave and plate warmer, full height fridge and freezer, a Grohe sink with waste disposal and taps, Fisher & Paykel double drawer dishwasher and an abundance of storage units. A study sits at the centre of the house, while at the front, the drawing
room has an attractive fireplace, refurbished cornice and ceiling rose, its window looking out on to Henrietta Park.

Each of the upper two floors have two large bedrooms and a bathroom furnished with quality fittings and fixtures. A laundry cupboard on the second floor housing both washing and dryer machines is yet another nod to the practical ethos of the architect's thoughtful interior design. The immaculate, heated lower ground floor utilises Delta membrane and is carpeted. It includes two store rooms and offers flexible space for hobbies. The villa has a new loft and wall insulation, double-glazing, draught exclusion, completely new plumbing and electrics throughout, remote-controlled zoned heating, CAT 5 cabling and six external security cameras.

The Garage
Built to complement the house architecture, this building currently serves the needs of an ardent collector and 'fettler' of classic cars. All services run to it, and the centrepiece is a car lift housed flush to the floor. As well as ample space for three cars, it has storage above that would satisfy the needs of the most prolific DIY'er. All services are brand new and have been thoroughly put to the test over the last four years. Everything works and requires no further attention except, perhaps, that which a prospective purchaser may wish to do in order to personalise it.

Henrietta Road is a prime central Bath location, adjacent to the open spaces of Henrietta Park, yet only a few minutes walk from Bath city centre across the old Pulteney Bridge. Bath's Georgian city centre of independent retailers, restaurants, museums, theatre and art galleries is a flat 10 minute walk from the villa, with Waitrose supermarket less than 500 metres from its doorstep. Bath has an excellent range of private and state schools, catering for all age groups, including King Edwards, Kingswood and The Royal High, all within walking/cycling distance. Bath has a mainline rail link to London Paddington and Bristol Temple Meads from Bath Spa.
