The stone-built cottage, rich in history, sits on generous front, rear, and side gardens, and includes a detached garage and driveway. Once the home of members of the Carr family of Bath, this delightful property is part of a World Heritage site and located in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

A mature front garden and paved path lead to the entrance of the home, where you’re welcomed by an inviting entrance hall that sets a grand tone. Featuring tall ceilings, an original staircase, and parquet flooring, the entrance hints at the exceptional character of the home.

The hallway leads first to the dining room, a spacious (14'8 x 13'8 ft) area with original hardwood floors, a feature fireplace, and tall ceilings—perfect for hosting guests. Next is the light-filled living room, also (14'8 x 13'8 ft), which boasts dual-aspect windows and a gorgeous stone period fireplace, creating an ideal space to relax with family.

On the ground floor, you'll also find a practical utility room and a well-equipped kitchen, with the potential to combine these spaces (subject to consent) into an open-plan L-shaped kitchen and dining area that overlooks the beautiful rear gardens. A separate snug, part of the original build and measuring (13'10 x 12'10 ft), features parquet flooring and a working log burner. Additionally, a side extension houses a workshop, storage units, and a separate WC.

Upstairs, there are five well-proportioned double bedrooms, with the largest two measuring (14'10 x 13'4 ft) and (14'11 x 13'11 ft). Bedrooms three and four are currently used as offices. The first floor also includes a recently fitted family bathroom with a bathtub and overhead shower, and a separate shower room with a shower cubicle. Two generous, boarded, and insulated loft spaces provide ample storage.

Outside, the property sits on a substantial plot, with beautifully landscaped gardens to the front, side, and rear. The large, west-facing rear garden is mainly laid to lawn, featuring a variety of trees, plants, flowers, and an orchard. The garden also benefits from a driveway and a detached garage with an electric vehicle charging point.

"We've loved using our home to entertain friends and family over the years. The space has allowed us to host everything from intimate dinners to larger gatherings, and when the night runs long, it's been such a blessing to have enough room for guests to comfortably stay. It's become more than just a house—it's a place where memories are made, and everyone feels welcome.

The local area offers a perfect blend of nature and community. With beautiful wooded walks just minutes from your door, it's easy to enjoy peaceful strolls or take in the changing seasons. For football fans, the nearby grounds provide an exciting atmosphere on match days, and the canal path leads to charming local pubs where you can relax with friends and enjoy a pint by the water. It’s a vibrant yet tranquil area with something for everyone."
