Description
3 Dunsford Place exudes charm and has been thoughtfully enhanced by its current owners. It beautifully balances a host of period features with the needs of modern family living, making it a wonderful home.
Upon entering through the front door, you are welcomed by a classic hallway adorned with original cornicing, a beautiful stone floor, and a direct view of the garden alongside the staircase leading to the upper levels. The kitchen, overlooking the garden, is elegantly fitted with wall and floor units topped with granite, and features a dual-fuel AGA range cooker flanked by two spacious full-height storage cupboards. An archway connects to the dining/family room, creating a seamless flow for family gatherings. The family area boasts a striking period fireplace, fitted cupboards with shelving above, original shutters, and large sash windows that fill the space with light and offer delightful views. At the end of the hallway, a cloakroom and separate WC are conveniently located next to a glazed door that opens to the garden.
A door leads down to the lower ground floor, showcasing a beautiful wall of exposed ashlar stone. This level features two versatile rooms: one currently serves as an office with garden access and views, while the other is a generously sized snug/guest bedroom. A door at the front of the lower hall leads to a charming courtyard and two unconverted vaults that provide ample storage. At the back, the utility room is equipped with base cupboards, a ceramic sink, and space for a washing machine and dryer, as well as a shower.
On the first floor landing, you’ll find a well-appointed shower room complete with a walk-in shower, WC, and wash hand basin, which conveniently doubles as a cloakroom for guests in the drawing room. The drawing room itself is beautifully proportioned, featuring lovely views, period cornicing, shutters, and a fireplace. This floor also includes bedroom 2, which has fitted cupboards and a large sash window that overlooks the gardens.
Ascending to the second floor, the spacious principal bedroom is equipped with fitted wardrobes, an attractive fireplace, and stunning views toward the Abbey, south and west of Bath, and the surrounding hills. The adjacent bathroom is thoughtfully designed with a bath, walk-in shower, WC, and wash hand basin, and also enjoys views of the garden. The top floor features two additional bedrooms, both with city views, along with an attic store room for extra storage.
Garden
The property is approached via a wrought iron gate from Bathwick Hill, with the house set back from the road behind a large ornamental patio garden.
The rear garden is accessible from both the ground and lower ground floors, featuring a paved terrace perfect for entertaining. The majority of the garden is lawned and surrounded by mature shrubs, with a path leading to a generously sized garage at the end of the garden, offering parking and plenty of additional storage space.
The garage is accessible by vehicles via a private road entered to the south of Dunsford Place on Bathwick Hill.
Location
Bathwick Hill is one of the most prominent residential areas within the City of Bath. Situated on the lower slopes of Bathwick Hill, this property enjoys convenient access to a selection of local shops and various nearby schools including King Edwards, Prior Park and Monkton Combe.
The World Heritage site of Bath, famed for its Georgian architecture and Roman heritage, is within close proximity, providing a full range of retail outlets together with many amenities including an excellent selection of restaurants, Bath Sports Centre, the Theatre Royal and the Thermae Spa. Complementing this is the open countryside nearby with many beautiful walks. This, contrasting with the closeness of the city centre is, in our opinion, one of the major attractions to this property.
The property enjoys incredible City views including of The Recreation Ground – home of Bath Rugby. There is a bus service from Bathwick Hill and Bath Spa Railway Station is approximately 1 mile distant. Bath University is at the top of the hill offering excellent sporting facilities. Junction 18 of the M4 is approximately 10 miles north whilst Bath Spa Station offers high speed rail links to London Paddington (journey time from approx. 75 mins) and Bristol Temple Meads (journey time from approx. 15 mins). The nearby Kennet and Avon Canal offers delightful walks as does the nearby National Trust land.
