An impeccably presented link detached house, designed and finished to the owner's high specification and situated in the favoured village of Norton St Philip, to the south of Bath.
With an impressive and beautifully equipped living space over three floors, there is flexibility to serve varied individual needs and requirements. Currently arranged with three double bedrooms, including a premium top floor bedroom suite in open plan, there is emphasis on comfort, light, space and quality. There is ample first floor space providing potential to create a fourth bedroom if required;
The house sits on the edge of the much admired Fortescue Fields development constructed around 2012-2014. However, Fortescue House and one other property were sold as buildings in basic form, leaving the buyers with a rare and enviable opportunity to shape the living space and interior design entirely to their own requirements. The 'finished article' in the opinion of the owner's agent is a triumph.
A key feature of the accommodation is the lovely garden room extension with almost full width bi-folding doors, and custom designed roof lantern, connecting interior and garden space perfectly. With access from both the living room and kitchen, it is clear that this house would certainly suit buyers keen on entertain friends and family, all-year round.
Additional features include three bath/shower rooms and a ground floor cloakroom and utility room. On the light, spacious first floor landing there is a fabulous open plan area which could be converted to provide a fourth bedroom if required, but many buyers might use this as an additional relaxing or office space. The large double aspect living room has a stone fireplace with gas log stove and the kitchen is stunning, with bespoke oak cabinetry, granite worksurfaces and a two oven AGA with hob.
Aside from the obvious premium quality on offer, the owner has designed the interior with some wide doorways and as such, buyers requiring some ease of access due to limited mobility may find the house suitable.
There is a neatly landscaped and maintained rear garden, with a private parking space, plus a freehold covered car port.
Norton St Philip, set around seven miles south of Bath, is a village rich in history, with a wealth of pretty Listed Buildings. The village has a warm spirit of community, with regular events and activities at the Village Hall.
Aside from its merits as a first class home, a key feature of Fortescue House is its position in the village; there is a safe, traffic free walk just around the corner to Church Mead with children's' playground and breath-taking views across the cricket field to the Church beyond, a scene that is enjoyed by customers of 'The George', a 2024 National award winning Grade I Listed pub/hotel. Adjacent to the church is the reputable Norton St Philip First School (pre-school and Primary), rated 'Good' by OFSTED in 2022 and notably 'Outstanding' for personal development.
