Set within over eight acres of mature grounds yet only a short drive from Bath, this double-fronted detached farmhouse blends rural seclusion with family-sized living. The house offers versatile accommodation across 2,435 sq ft: two reception rooms (one with a wood burner), conservatory, kitchen, cellar/office and four double bedrooms, including a master with en-suite shower and balcony. Private features such as a spring-fed lake, orchard and pony paddocks create rare lifestyle appeal for equestrian, hobby-farming or gardening families.
Outbuildings, a detached double garage and long tree-lined driveway provide generous storage and parking. The formal gardens, terraces and south-facing aspects overlook Duchy farmland and woodland walks; excellent local schools and a frequent bus to Bath make the location unusually convenient for a countryside home. Broadband and mobile signals are strong and the property is not at flood risk.
Practical points to note: the grounds are extensive and will require ongoing maintenance or management if you are not keeping livestock; outbuildings and paddocks may need upkeep to suit specific uses. Council Tax is expensive (Band G), and the house was constructed in the 1983–1990 period, so buyers should confirm specifics of services and any modernisation preferences during survey. Overall this is a well-presented rural family home with substantial outdoor potential close to Bath.
