"VIEWING DAY: Saturday 9th March (By Appointment Only)

This 5-bedroom home, situated in the beautiful Lyncombe Vale in Bath, is a fine example of a 1960s architect-designed house that has been recently refurbished by CaSA (Contemporary and Sustainable Architecture). With south-facing sun terraces and a garden overlooking meadowland and forests, it is an idyllic setting, yet only a 10 - 15 minute walk to Bath Spa railway station and the city centre beyond.

Accommodation includes a spectacular living room with a full-width window giving wonderful views across the valley. There is also an open plan kitchen / dining / breakfast room, five bedrooms, two bathrooms and a utility room. There is a sloping rear garden that has been landscaped to incorporate a series of levels with an area of lawn at the bottom. There is a detached double garage with a driveway that could provide parking for up to four cars at the bottom of the garden . At the front of the property is an off-street parking area.

The exciting design of the house allows for a series of light, open spaces that make the most of the property's wonderful position overlooking the valley. CaSA's exemplary refurbishment is sympathetic to the original vision, yet has added further appeal thanks to careful detailing and the addition of extra space.

The house is located in one of Bath's most privileged locations - it is close to the centre centre and to Widcombe yet retains a rural feel thanks to the leafy surroundings, historic architecture and winding lanes. The house is very close to the highly-regarded Paragon School. It is also in the catchment area of a number of excellent secondary schools, most notably the Ralph Allen and Prior Park School. Bath Spa railway station is less than half a mile away and can be reached on foot in approximately 10 - 15 minutes. Beside the station is the SouthGate shopping area which leads into the city centre. A 10 minute walk from the house also takes you to the shops, pubs and restaurants of Widcombe. A notable new addition to the area is the new Two Tunnels Greenway walking and cycling route which is accessed very close to the property. The Greenway is a revitalised former railway line that includes a mile-long tunnel and offers an opportunity for walkers and cyclists to travel on level ground from the city centre to the outlying villages of Somerset.

Bath is well-known as being one of the world's most beautiful cities and has been designated as a World Heritage Site thanks to its historic architecture. It has a broad range of well-regarded shops, restaurants, museums, galleries and sports facilities. The city is surrounded by countryside and is on the edge of the Cotswolds.
