Description

This detached residence, nestled on a substantial plot of approximately 3/4 of an acre, presents a unique opportunity for comprehensive refurbishment. Originally constructed in the early 1800s as two farm worker cottages, with an extension added in 1860 by local builder George Hobbs, this property boasts significant potential to be transformed into a remarkable home. Over the years, it has undergone considerable modifications, including the conversion of two cottages into one dwelling and the adaptation of part of the structure into a garage with loft storage above. The layout currently features an entrance hallway, lounge, dining room, and kitchen on the ground floor, while the first floor encompasses four bedrooms and a bathroom. Accessed via a shared private lane leading to a gravel drive suitable for multiple vehicles, the property also includes an attached garage equipped with power and lighting. Surrounding grounds are adorned with mature trees and lawns that will require restoration, set against an idyllic backdrop of open countryside. While amenities can be found just over two miles away in Norton St Philip—including local shops and historic pubs—the city centre of Bath is conveniently reachable within 10 miles. Key infrastructure such as mains electricity and water is available; however, the septic tank drainage system needs replacement.
