This substantial Grade II listed Georgian home spans over four main floors of living accommodation with a separate one-bedroom apartment below enjoying a prime position on Lyncombe Hill, just over half a mile south of Bath.

To the far end of the entrance hall is a most impressive cantilever stone staircase paired with stone landing. The ground floor is occupied by kitchen/breakfast room, and a more formal dining room is positioned across the reception hall. The first floor hosts an expansive wrap around living space with plenty of light from the wide sash windows. The kitchen is sizable with a central island, perfect for entertaining. To the rear, the kitchen has a window looking out onto a patioed north-east facing garden with wonderful views over Bath towards Bath Skyline and Bathwick Meadows. The dining room has a fireplace, sash windows as well as cornicing and an intricate ceiling rose.
Ascending the stairs to the first floor, is a drawing room with adjoining partition into a striking withdrawing room benefitting from traditional fireplaces. The bedrooms are situated on the second and third floors with two double bedrooms, a single bedroom or study along with family bathroom. The main bedroom suite occupies the third floor with en suite, including both bath and shower.
The principal room enjoys the benefit of three windows guaranteeing ample light throughout and a further bedroom is adjacent.
The lower ground floor is a self-contained apartment from the main house, and is accessed via an external staircase directly from street level. It has sufficient kitchen space and connects to a dining and living room, following through to the entrance hallway off to the bedroom with a bathroom. A perfect rental investment opportunity or prospect to open and rejoin this into additional living accommodation.

The next steps...

Before making an offer on a property you will want to consider your financial situation, your income and outgoings.

Will you finance the purchase of your next property from the sale of an existing property which can put you in a chain, arrange a mortgage through your bank or buy the property outright.

To help you finance your next property purchase, we have a long established relationship with an independent mortgage broker who can discuss your situation with you.

Remember that having a 'mortgage decision in principle' can make you a more attractive buyer when you make an offer on a property. Contact our mortgage advisers for free, no obligation and impartial advice.

Some advantages of a broker are:

  • They do all the legwork for you, working on your behalf with the lender
  • They compare wholesale mortgage rates from a large number of banks and lenders all at once
  • Their wholesale interest rates can be lower than retail (bank branch) interest rates
  • They offer more loan options because they work with numerous banks and lenders
  • They can finance tricky deals because of their knowledge and various lending partners
  • They are typically easier to get in contact with, and are less bureaucratic.

However advantages of working with your bank are:

  • You may be able to build off an existing relationship (and gain discounts if you have a checking or savings account)
  • You may already know the banker who will handle your mortgage
  • Banks may be more accountable than a smaller shop
  • They may offer lower interest rates in some cases
  • Their ability to add mortgage to existing banking profile and make automatic payments from linked account.

If other offers have been made on a property we aren't legally able to tell you what they are, but we may indicate if they were close to the asking price.

If you have a property to sell, why not see how we can help you.
