<p><strong>Setting The Scene </strong></p><p>Occupying a peaceful position on Bailbrook Lane, a quiet residential lane renowned for its attractive mix of period homes and leafy surroundings, this property enjoys an enviable setting approximately 2.5 miles north-east of Bath city centre. The city is easily accessible by car, regular bus services, and nearby walking and cycle routes.</p><p>Batheaston offers a range of everyday amenities, including the popular Gather Café, convenience stores, a medical centre, pharmacy, post office and other local services. A number of well-regarded primary and secondary schools are also within easy reach.</p><p>For those who enjoy an active lifestyle, the property is ideally positioned close to the River Avon, the National Cycle Network, and an extensive network of riverside, countryside and Cotswold walks. Nearby National Trust land provides further opportunities to explore the surrounding countryside, making this an excellent location for walking, cycling and enjoying the outdoors.</p><p><strong>The Property</strong></p><p>Steeped in history and full of character, The Coach House at Bailbrook Lane is a beautifully presented former coach house associated with the Grade II listed Bailbrook Villa. While not individually listed, it is recognised as a curtilage listed property, meaning it forms part of the historic setting of the original villa and benefits from the same heritage protection. This preserves the unique architectural features and historic character that make the home so special.</p><p>Believed to date from the 18th and 19th centuries, the property seamlessly combines period charm with modern living. Distinctive features include oversized oak double doors, elegant arched sash windows, high ceilings, original stable doors, stone flooring, dark walnut parquet flooring, stripped wooden floors, and a wealth of original architectural detailing throughout.</p><p>At the heart of the home is a stunning reception room overlooking the beautifully established south-facing gardens, complemented by a contemporary galley kitchen with integrated appliances. The accommodation includes two generous double bedrooms, a stylish family bathroom, a versatile first-floor study or landing with potential to create a third bedroom (subject to the necessary consents), and a ground floor shower room.</p><p>Outside, the gardens are a true highlight. The landscaped south-facing rear garden has been thoughtfully designed with flagstone terraces, established planting, lawned areas, a greenhouse, a fully powered garden room and multiple seating areas, all centred around a magnificent protected horse chestnut tree. A separate cobbled courtyard, once part of the original stables and now used as a productive vegetable and herb garden, further enhances the property's unique history and charm.</p><p>Rarely does a home of this character become available, offering a wonderful balance of heritage, practical living and beautifully maintained outdoor space in one of Bath's most sought-after locations.</p>
