Barrow House is a delightful family house with far reaching views in this peaceful hamlet on the southern side of Bath.
Description
Barrow House is a delightful family house with far reaching views, nestled in approximately 0.5 acre in a peaceful hamlet on the southern side of Bath.
The covered porch leads in to a spacious entrance hall with attractive oak flooring. From here is accessed a spacious sitting room with a fabulous view southwards over rolling countryside. The room has the added benefit of an attractive stone fireplace with log burner and large floor to ceiling windows from which to enjoy the view. Next door is a comfortable office with fitted units and shelving. The dining room is also accessed from the hallway and is beautifully arranged with a large dining table, fitted bunket seating and double doors leading out to the rear patio. A door leads from here in to the attractive kitchen/breakfast room with a central island and an extensive range of wall and base units. The utility room next door provides useful storage, as well as side access to the garden via a locked gate. The ground floor accommodation is completed by a downstairs WC as well as stepped access to a wonderfully useful cellar floor, which has been damp-proofed and with central heating is now utilised as a spacious playroom.
On the first floor are four comfortable bedrooms with two bath/shower rooms (one en suite) as well as a walk-in airing cupboard and access to a large loft space, useful for storage. The views from this floor are exceptional and take in the full extent of the Duchy land to the rear.
Outside
To the front of the property is a gravelled driveway with plentiful parking for cars, as well as a large double garage. The house is very handsome and is adorned with virginia creeper, which changes the house’s appearance throughout the seasons.
The rear garden is delightful and beautifully maintained. Largely laid to lawn with a south westerly aspect, there are also numerous shrubs, herbaceous and flower borders, making it perfect for a keen gardener. Immediately outside the rear of the house is a sunny terrace with plenty of space for a garden table and chairs. An additional paddock is located at the rear of the garden, which backs on to farmland behind. Within the paddock is a former stable and store, which could potentially be repurposed. There is also an established vegetable garden and greenhouse.
Location
Inglesbatch is a picturesque hamlet situated in breathtaking countryside between Englishcombe and Priston, just under five miles from the Georgian city of Bath.
Large areas of the surrounding land are owned by the Duchy of Cornwall and it is popular among horse riders and walkers.
Nearby Priston is a desirable village with an excellent village pub and lively village hall. Annual events offer activities as diverse as Priston May Day, Priston Music Festival and the New Year Duck Race; there is also a strong local cricket team with a cricket ground and pavilion situated just behind the parish church.
Local shopping facilities in Odd Down and Combe Down include post office, doctors surgeries, chemist and multiple supermarkets.
Bath with its wide variety of shops and sporting and cultural facilities is within just five miles. There are well regarded schools in both the state and independent sectors and a mainline rail link to London Paddington (journey time from approx. 85 minutes) and Bristol Temple Meads (journey time from approx. 15 mins).
