Property description
Three bedroom detached house in desirable area of Widcombe, Bath. Fine views and off street parking. Two receptions, one leading to balcony, and kitchen/breakfast room leading to balcony, downstairs cloak room, utility, undercroft storage, three bedrooms, family bathroom, garden with fruit trees.Tucked away in a quiet enclave on the edge of the historic city of Bath is Horseshoe Walk, and a delightful home that enjoys an enviable location. The current owner was initially attracted by the beautiful views and the easy access to both open countryside and the city centre; and the property proved to be in a location that offers the best of both worlds.The owner says: You enter the house into a bright and welcoming reception hall from which each of the principle living areas flow. There is a spacious living room with a large bay window overlooking the front, a generous kitchen/diner, and a second reception room that has French doors leading out to a pretty balcony area. It is from here that you can enjoy a quite spectacular view of the magnificent Bath skyline.I am lucky enough to have a south-facing front garden and a generous area to the back that is mainly laid to lawn and surrounded by a mature border that provides a good amount of privacy. At the very end is a secret garden, a pretty patio area with a pergola and a table and chairs, which is completely secluded and catches the last of the days sun. Its a lovely place to sit out on a warm evening for a BBQ or a cold glass of wine.My favourite part of the house is the second reception room as it features a wood burner that creates a cosy atmosphere in winter, and French doors that can be flung open during the warmer months to extend the space out onto the balcony beyond.From the house it is just a short stroll into the city centre and a ten minute walk to the railway station, with fast trains to London. However Horseshoe Walk also borders acres of National Trust land, and is only a two minute walk from the Canal, so the house offers a convenient setting with a countryside feel.There is a sizable undercroft, which is currently used as storage, as well as a generous loft area, both of which have the potential to be developed further.This has been a wonderful home for the past four years and I will greatly miss sitting on the balcony and gazing out at the spectacular view.
