A secluded home on the edge of Bath with far reaching views across open countryside<br/><br/> <b>Description</b><br/><br/>Set in a wonderfully secluded position on the edge of Bath, Inglescombe House is a substantial Georgian country home with a Victorian wing offering approximately 2,896 sq ft of accommodation, together with a double garage, totalling around 3,244 sq ft in all. Surrounded by mature greenery and enjoying a distinctly rural feel, the house is complemented by a garden that provides a peaceful setting and far-reaching views across the surrounding countryside.<br/><br/>The accommodation is arranged over several levels, creating a sense of space and separation between reception rooms and bedroom areas. The ground floor centres on an impressive living room accessed from the entrance hall, which is a generous principal reception room with a traditional fireplace feature. Beyond the living room is the main principal bedroom with en suite bathroom and built in wardrobes. This is a superb room with tall ceilings, and an attractive square bay looking out over the garden, and delightful country views to the horizon, would make a lovely second reception room. Across the hallway, stairs lead up to another charming bedroom, which also benefits from an en suite bathroom.<br/><br/>From the entrance hall, a second staircase leads up to two further spacious bedrooms arranged over the first and second floors. Bedroom two has views of the countryside, whilst bedroom three is set within the charming pitch of the roof line on the top floor, with exposed wooden beams and delightful views southwards. Both rooms utilise a family bathroom on the first floor.<br/><br/>On the garden floor there is a comfortable dining room, a particularly useful space for entertaining and benefits from a feature fireplace. There is also a large vault, which provides useful storage. The kitchen leads off the dining room and is fully fitted for family life, with shaker style units, a walk in larder and an adjacent utility room and downstairs WC. A door leads from the utility room to the side of the house, which is useful for day to day usage from the off-street parking area.<br/><br/><b>Garden</b><br/>The rear garden is delightful, with mature specimen trees providing privacy, with areas of lawn and borders that sit beautifully against the house and its rural backdrop. The views from the house and garden are fabulous, with the house nestled into its peaceful hillside landscape, with open countryside beyond. A shaded terrace allows for outdoor entertaining, accessed from the garden floor level.<br/> <br/>Inglescombe House is accessed across a pretty courtyard from Haycombe Lane. To the side of the property there is off-street parking for multiple cars, as well as a double garage, which provides useful storage and could potentially be converted in to accommodation (subject to obtaining the necessary consents).<br/><br/><b>Location</b><br/><br/>Inglescombe House has a rare blend of countryside tranquility and immediate access to one of the UK’s most desirable cities. It is set in a small peaceful hamlet on the south-western edge of Bath, high on the south-facing slopes of a beautiful valley. It overlooks the picturesque village of Englishcombe and its stone-built homes and 12th century church. Inglescombe House is about 3 miles from Bath’s historic centre and railway station with its fast connections to London, Bristol and beyond. It is ideal for those seeking a quieter lifestyle without losing the benefit of city living.<br/><br/>Within the surrounding area, residents enjoy a range of quality local amenities that enhance day to day life. Well-regarded pubs such as The Wheatsheaf in Combe Hay and The Forester & Flower offer excellent dining in traditional settings, while nearby independent food producers including Newton Farm Shop and Bath Soft Cheese (Park Farm) provide fresh, locally sourced produce. Extensive walking routes and open countryside are on the doorstep, and a choice of highly regarded schools can be found both locally and within Bath itself, adding to the area’s broad appeal.<br/><br/>From Inglescombe House, Bath city centre and Bath Spa railway station are approximately 2–3 miles away, providing direct rail services to London Paddington (from around 75 minutes) and Bristol. The village also benefits from easy access to the A36 and A367, with Bristol roughly 12 miles away, making it particularly appealing for commuters.<br/><br/>All distances are approximate.<br/><br/>Square Footage: 3,244 sq ft<br/> <br/>
