Description The Manse is a handsome Edwardian semi-detached house offering an exciting opportunity to create a truly exceptional home in a highly convenient and desirable Bath location. Constructed with attractive Bath Stone, the property boasts spacious accommodation with impressive 10ft high ceilings and elegant rooms spanning over two floors, measuring approximately 1,778 sq.ft.  While requiring modernisation, the house retains a host of features including traditional fireplaces, decorative coving, and ceiling roses, providing a wonderful foundation for restoration. Its unlisted status offers flexibility for further extension to rival some of the similar modernised and stylish homes in the area. The property has some areas showing internal cracking which will require attention or investigation, possibly due to ground heave from contrasting wet winters and dry summers.

A convenient downstairs WC is located beneath the stairs. Upstairs, there are five bedrooms, a family bathroom, and a separate WC.
