About this home
Stonefield presents a rare opportunity to acquire a spacious detached home in one of Bath's most desirable semi-rural settings, on the southern edge of the city.
Occupying a generous south sloping and secluded plot, the property offers almost 3,200 sq ft of accommodation and provides tremendous scope for modernisation and reconfiguration, subject to any necessary consents.
Please note, over the years there have been some moderate issues with movement which we have a report on hand showing the reasons and the remedies needed.
The principal accommodation is arranged across the upper level and is centred around a particularly impressive sitting room, enjoying large picture windows that frame attractive views over the gardens and surrounding woodland. Adjacent is a generous kitchen/ dining room, offering excellent potential to create a superb open-plan family living space. Three double bedrooms and a family bathroom complete the main living accommodation. A balcony spans the rear south facing elevation taking in the impressive views and giving access to the garden.
On the lower ground floor are extensive ancillary rooms including a large games room, store rooms, cellar and workshop space, presenting further opportunities for a variety of uses including a home office, studio, gym or additional accommodation.
A detached garage and ample driveway parking further enhance the property's appeal.
The grounds are a particular feature of Stonefield. Mature gardens wrap around the property and provide a wonderful sense of privacy and tranquillity, with expansive lawns, established shrubs, specimen trees and numerous secluded seating areas. The elevated position affords delightful leafy outlooks in every direction, creating a peaceful setting that feels wonderfully removed from the city, whilst remaining conveniently accessible.
Location Horsecombe Vale enjoys a picturesque setting surrounded by beautiful countryside whilst remaining within easy reach of Bath city centre, approximately 2.5 miles away. The property is in close range of local amenities, whilst excellent schooling options are available in both the state and independent sectors. Regular rail services from Bath Spa connect to London Paddington and Bristol, making the area highly convenient for commuters. There are excellent countryside walks down the valley and in nearby Southstoke with its popular local pub The Packhorse serving excellent food, as does Castle Farm, a local restaurant in a barn on an organic farm across the valley.
