4 bedroom detached house

Built in the mid-1950s as a family home and later extended, this four-bedroom property rests within a spacious plot on a quiet loop road in the highly sought-after Bannerdown area, located on the eastern outskirts of Bath. Nestled in gardens that encircle the home, including mature trees, lawns, flower beds, and a vegetable plot, with off-road parking for up to three cars, the back overlooks scenic open fields. Under the same family ownership since its construction, this property has been meticulously maintained and now presents an exciting opportunity for development and modernisation. The owner fondly recollects the transformation of this area, saying, ‘when my parents purchased this plot, there were very few houses, but with time, it has evolved into a lovely neighborhood featuring a mix of distinctive homes, many of which have undergone modernisation. It's a tranquil and convenient place to call home.’ Elevated between the villages of Batheaston and Bathford, with Bannerdown Common above, this location offers the best of both worlds - the proximity to Bath and the serenity of the countryside. Batheaston is well-equipped with amenities, including shops, a pharmacy, medical center, a hairdresser, veterinary center, a stylish café, and an excellent primary school. Regular bus services connect you to various secondary schools, Bath, and Chippenham. You can access the Kennet & Avon Canal via a pleasant riverside walk in around half an hour, providing an idyllic stroll to the city center. ‘The location is truly exceptional and stands out as one of Windward's strongest selling points. It's the perfect place to savor country walks and fresh air while also having easy access to city life, the M4, and a quick train route to London's Paddington Station,’ the owner emphasises.

‘Bannerdown is a friendly neighbourhood where people are welcoming and helpful.’

‘The detached nature of the property ensures a sense of privacy, making the outdoor space ideal for hosting garden parties.’

‘My parents were avid gardeners, so the garden is well-established. Outside, you'll find several outbuildings, including a garage, workshop, and a pottery studio.’

‘The house offers stunning countryside views from the rear, especially from the sitting room and bedrooms, with beautiful sunrises.’

‘While I cherish the happy memories of growing up here, there is immense potential for someone to transform and update the property, creating a truly unique home.’
