Description
This is a very handsome Grade II Listed property, built in the mid 18th century of local honey coloured stone elevations under a Cotswold stone tile hipped roof. Large sash windows form the front elevation, whilst three venetian windows span the southern elevation to take in the excellent view of the Avon valley.

A welcoming reception hall leads with an original file floor to the principal ground floor rooms. Two large and square reception rooms at the front of the building with fireplaces and wood panelling and high ceilings. At the rear of the house is a superb open plan kitchen/dining/family room, excellent for entertaining and opening into the garden through glazed double doors. There is a utility room and W.C on this floor with a door leading down to the spacious cellar and a staircase leads up to the three upper floors arranged as six bedrooms and four bath/shower rooms. One of the bedrooms on the first floor has a large walk-in wardrobe as well as opening into a large conservatory that leads into the garden at the rear of the property.

A tarmac driveway leads to a large garage and store area with parking for numerous cars in front. The gardens are arranged around the house, a lawn with a pond and shrub borders to the front, again with the views, whilst a large paved patio leads around the side, creating a Mediterranean feel with climbing plants perfect for al fresco dining. Steps lead up to a vegetable garden and terrace. There is a further lawn to the rear, next to an indoor swimming pool, in need of updating.

Situation
The property sits in a quiet and elevated position within Batheaston, just below the lane up to Northend above Batheaston centre. Batheaston is a residential village with a thriving community, on the eastern outskirts of the city of Bath. The village benefits from a doctor's surgery, dentist, pharmacy, convenience store, several pubs, a renowned fish & chip shop and The Chris Rich Farm Shop is also not far away.

High speed rail links are available from Bath Spa and Chippenham stations and the property is well placed for commuting. The River Avon close by is ideal for kayaking and paddle boarding. A cycle path runs from the village across the meadows to the canal where it joins the towpath either in the direction of Bath/Bristol or Warleigh Weir/ Bradford-on-Avon.The property is in the catchment area for good local pre and primary schools in Batheaston and Bathford, all of which are within walking distance. There is an excellent selection of highly regarded schools in Bath and the surrounding areas.

The next steps...

Before making an offer on a property you will want to consider your financial situation, your income and outgoings.

Will you finance the purchase of your next property from the sale of an existing property which can put you in a chain, arrange a mortgage through your bank or buy the property outright.
 
To help you finance your next property purchase, we have a long established relationship with an independent mortgage broker who can discuss your situation with you.

Remember that having a 'mortgage decision in principle' can make you a more attractive buyer when you make an offer on a property. Contact our mortgage advisers for free, no obligation and impartial advice.
 
Some advantages of a broker are:

  • They do all the legwork for you, working on your behalf with the lender
  • They compare wholesale mortgage rates from a large number of banks and lenders all at once
  • Wholesale interest rates can be lower than retail (bank branch) interest rates
  • You get more loan options because they work with numerous banks and lenders
  • Brokers can finance tricky deals because of their knowledge and various lending partners
  • Are typically easier to get in contact with, less bureaucratic.

However with your bank maybe able to:

  • Build off existing relationship (discounts if you have a checking/saving account)
  • You may already know the banker who will handle your mortgage
  • Perhaps more trustworthy, more accountable than a smaller shop
  • Lower interest rates in some cases
  • Ability to add mortgage to existing banking profile and make automatic payments from linked account.

When it comes to making an offer on a property a bit of negotiation is to be expected, however don't offer so little that you end up in a lengthy negotiation process, as you might lose the property altogether if someone else makes a higher bid.

If other offers have been made on a property we aren't legally able to tell you what they are, but we may indicate if they were close to the asking price.
