5 bedroom semi-detached house for sale

At number 5 The Batch, Prospect Place is a handsome semi-detached home offering beautifully light and spacious accommodation arranged over three floors.

Steps lead from the road to a canopied porch and a charming paved sun terrace. The entrance hall features painted wooden flooring which continues throughout the ground floor, enhancing the sense of flow.

To the front, the inviting sitting room is fitted with extensive bookshelves and retains two original fireplaces, complemented by a large Georgian sash window which frames delightful views across Batheaston. A useful downstairs bathroom lies to the rear of the room, together with discreet under-stairs storage. Beyond, the spacious kitchen is finished with tiled flooring, a hand-made solid oak shaker kitchen, complemented by quality appliances including a gas Aga. Recently extended into the garden, it now incorporates a wonderful dining area flooded with natural light, a solid oak floor, French doors and a concertina window which al open onto the pretty west-facing garden. A separate utility room and a snug – once used as a historic pottery room – are also found on this floor. The latter has been beautifully redesigned in birch plywood to provide an atmospheric and peaceful space.

A wooden staircase ascends to the first floor, where Bedroom 1 is a delightful double with a period fireplace, fitted cupboards, and far-reaching views over the village. Bedroom 2 is a cosy single, over-looking the garden, with fitted wardrobes, and bedroom 3 has uninterrupted views to the rear. A stylish family bathroom with shower completes this level. The top floor comprises two further bedrooms, including a spacious principal room with painted floorboards and fitted storage, and a fifth bedroom—currently arranged with bunks—overlooking the rear garden. There is plumbing at this level to create a stylish en suite bathroom.

French doors from the kitchen open onto a beautifully landscaped west-facing garden punctuated by mature mulberry and yew, laid to two lawns with a stone terrace perfect for outdoor entertaining, all enclosed by traditional stone walling. Stone steps lead to an elevated section with raised vegetable beds, a greenhouse, and a variety of established shrubs and mature fruit trees.
