Rockliffe Avenue is a peaceful location situated in the popular residential area of Bathwick and would suit anyone looking for city centre living. Located between the parks at Sydney and Henrietta Gardens, Sydney Gardens re-opened in 2022 with stunning tennis courts and play parks adjacent to the modern coffee shop at the Holburne Museum, Bath's first public art gallery, and easy access to the River Avon and Kennet & Avon Canal. From here, a short walk down the wide pavements of Great Pulteney Street leads to the city centre.

Bath Spa train station is just over a mile away and the area also offers great schooling options including Bathwick St Mary and King Edwards, both within half a mile. The local Boating Station has a popular restaurant with local convenience shops on Bathwick Street for day to day requirements. Both The Curfew and the Pulteney Arms are quality public houses offering a great atmosphere on rugby matchdays.

A small entrance porch leads into a welcoming hallway with pine floorboards and staircase to the first floor. To the front, there is a bayed sitting room with gas fireplace and marble hearth with a second reception room to the rear presented with a pretty cast iron period fireplace and double glazed French doors to the garden. The kitchen has been extended beyond the dining room with a wide aperture between these two rooms creating an L-shaped open plan kitchen dining room arrangement. The extended kitchen with its velux and clerestory windows is naturally light. Upgraded in 2018, the kitchen includes high quality silestone worktops with undermount stainless steel sinks, glossy off white kitchen units and integrated appliances. A door from the kitchen leads outside to the patio garden terrace with steps down to a lawn and raised shrub and plant bed. There is also a very handy cellar floor accessed from the ground floor hallway with plenty of storage.

Upstairs, the first floor landing has a fixed roof lantern window allowing light from above to fill the space. This floor includes three double bedrooms, a single fourth bedroom / work from home office and a nice bathroom.

The property has been granted full planning permission for a rear extension and loft conversion to create a large dining space and superb master bedroom. See BANES planning portal for full details using reference 25/04157/FUL.

To the front, a pretty front garden has been landscaped with plant and shrub beds with brick borders, a central bay tree, garden path with rosemary bush and an established wisteria to the front wall of the house. The rear garden is accessed from both the kitchen and rear reception room. This terraced garden includes a full width patio seating terrace with steps down to a lawn with raised shrub bed. The rear garden enjoys a pleasant and peaceful outlook towards the grounds of the boating station, green trees and a glimpse of the river.

The property benefits from residents parking and sits within the Residents Parking Zone (RPZ) 10.
