5 bedroom detached house

A beautiful and exceptionally well presented five-bedroom detached property in a prime location on the northern slopes of Bath.

Description

Cedar Grange is a very special five bedroom detached property with wonderful, elevated southerly views over Bath. Built in the 1970s in a beautiful Georgian style and extended in the 1990s, Cedar Grange is situated on one of Bath’s most desirable roads close to popular local schools and benefits from an enclosed rear garden, a garage and ample gated parking.

The beautifully presented accommodation is arranged over three storeys and can be used in a multitude of different ways. The property has the benefit of double glazing and due to the south/south-westerly aspect gets the best of the British weather.

You enter the property at ground floor level into a spacious entrance hall. There is a modern kitchen/breakfast room with granite work surfaces with a generous breakfast area with French doors out to the terrace. Adjacent is the light and airy drawing room with a feature fireplace. The drawing room also has French doors opening onto the raised terrace that runs across the whole of the back of the property, from where there are lovely views over the garden and beyond. A glazed wrought iron canopy runs above these doors, providing a degree of shelter to the terrace. The dining room also has double doors that open onto an enclosed courtyard garden, ideal for dining or sitting in some shade, and light pours in through the ceiling atrium. Also on the ground floor is a cloakroom and a spacious utility room.

The principal bedroom on the first floor incorporates a contemporary en suite bathroom and a wide bay window provides wonderful views over the garden and far-reaching views over Bath. There are two further bedrooms and a shower room on the first floor and an additional two bedrooms on the second floor, one of which the owner uses as a terrific study.

Outside
Cedar Grange is discreetly situated behind an original Georgian retaining wall that borders one side of the garden. Running across the back of the property is a raised terrace with an area close to the kitchen/breakfast room ideal for al fresco dining. The garden is enclosed by the wall, hedges and fencing and is laid mainly to lawn with mature flower beds, shrubs and bushes. Steps lead down to a path that runs down one side of the garden to the garage and gated parking area which opens onto Sion Hill.
