Full Description: After 29 happy years, the owner of Coldharbour Cottage is ready to pass on a home rich in history, character, and quiet beauty. ‘This is a very special house, and despite its name, it has always felt warm and inviting,’ they say. ‘It is secluded and peaceful – a place to escape the outside world.’ Believed to have originated as three one-up, one-down farm workers’ cottages, the property carries a fascinating past. From its early days, through ownership by coal miner brothers, to its reinvention in the 1960s, traces of its history remain throughout while the old outbuilding still bears the original wash-house fireplace, before it was used as a pig shelter.<br /><br />Today, the cottage has evolved into a warm and welcoming detached home, set within generous, beautifully curated grounds. Inside, the two-storey house offers five bedrooms, along with flexible living spaces designed for both family life and relaxation. The drawing room is a particular highlight: ‘In winter it’s cosy and calm, perfect for sitting by the wood burner, while in summer it opens to the garden with the scent of roses drifting in.’<br />The kitchen, complete with an Everhot, forms the heart of the home – ideal for cooking, gathering, and conversation – while a practical boot room provides the perfect space for dogs and country living.<br /><br />Outside, the gardens are a true labour of love. Extensively developed over the years, they now represent a classic English cottage garden and have earned Bath in Bloom Gold Awards for three consecutive years. ‘Each seating area has been carefully positioned to catch the sun throughout the day.’ The grounds offer complete privacy, with no passing traffic and minimal light pollution, creating uninterrupted views of the night sky. A sun house affectionately known as the ‘martini shed’ catches the evening light perfectly, while the swimming pool area becomes a suntrap in warmer months. ‘On a hot day, it could easily pass for a Mediterranean retreat.’<br /><br />‘Despite its tranquil setting, the property remains well connected, with nearby towns, schools, and amenities all within easy reach, as well as excellent access to Bath.’<br /><br />‘This is a perfect house for guests and a growing family, with lots of indoor and outside living space.’<br /><br />‘Wildlife thrives here, from deer and hares to owls and red kites. It’s like having a front row seat to nature.’ <br /><br />‘It’s a home that balances history, nature, and comfort in a truly unique way.’<br /><br />Additional Information:<br />Please see Key Facts For Buyers on video link/media tab.<br /><br />The comments provided herein represent the personal views of the current owner and are intended solely as an insight into life at the property.
