The House
Westvale is a beautiful and spacious family home, dating back to circa 1740, which was formerly owned by Baron and Lady Craigmyle. The house has a wealth of period features and charm throughout and offers very versatile accommodation: it can be used as one large house, or a wing can be separated to create an adjoining two-bedroom cottage.
You enter the house into the reception hall, with wonderful flagstone floor and a working open fire. There are four principal reception rooms arranged over the lower two floors, including a spacious drawing room with open fire and tall sash windows which overlook the gardens. A sizeable family room is situated on the lower ground floor, next to the dining room which leads out to the terrace. A fully-fitted, country-style kitchen has an AGA, wooden flooring and ample fitted storage space. A light and airy studio, a cloakroom, a utility room which leads into a useful vaulted store room complete the lower ground floor, whilst a snug, library and a study can be found on the ground floor.
On the upper floors there are nine bedrooms each with their own character, four bathrooms and a shower room.
The Cider Barn
A former cider barn has been converted and extended to an exceptionally high standard. Also listed Grade II, this charming period building provides ancillary accommodation to the main house. The Cider Barn enjoys privacy away from the main house and benefits from stunning views over neighbouring Duchy-owned farmland towards Bath. The accommodation provides a sitting room, open-plan kitchen/dining room, two bedrooms and a bathroom. The conversion of the building has been finished to the highest standard. Natural materials that provide warmth and charm sit well alongside high-end contemporary fixtures and furnishings.
The barn has its own private gardens, a terrace and hot tub.
Gardens and Grounds
The property is set within beautiful gardens and grounds which enjoy spectacular far-reaching rural views; the view is to the south west, showing sunsets to their best. There is a wildflower meadow with three cascading ponds, a productive orchard and a wonderful woodland with a tree house. There are also several natural springs throughout the land.
The property benefits from a tennis court, outdoor swimming pool and off-road parking for several vehicles.
Location
The peaceful hamlet of Nailwell enjoys an enviable position on the southern outskirts of Bath.
It overlooks wonderful open countryside, yet is just under 5 miles from the wide range of facilities and amenities that the city of Bath has to offer.
Bath is famed for its Georgian architecture and Roman heritage and provides an extensive range of business, entertainment and cultural facilities along with two universities.
There are well regarded schools in both the state and independent sectors and a mainline rail link to London Paddington (journey time from 75 mins) and Bristol Temple Meads (journey time from 15 mins).
From Bath, Junction 18 of the M4 motorway is about 9 miles to the north and Bristol International airport is some 20 miles to the north west.
Priston is close by and offers a primary school, village hall and village pub.
