Offered for sale with no onward chain, this attractive bay-fronted 1930s three-bedroom semi-detached home enjoys a discreet position on a tucked-away road in the heart of the city.
Combining period character with excellent potential, the property benefits from a level south-east facing rear garden, off-road driveway parking and a highly sought-after central location.
Many original features have been beautifully retained, including the terracotta tiled entrance porch and the original glazed front door with matching transom window leading into the welcoming entrance hall. The elegant bay-fronted sitting room features Crittall-style windows to the curved bay and an attractive tiled fireplace, while the adjoining dining room enjoys a delightful outlook over the rear garden and retains a working open fireplace with fitted alcove cupboards and shelving.
Running parallel to the dining room, the kitchen is fitted with a useful walk-in pantry and provides direct access to the garden via a deck and steps. Subject to the necessary building regulations, there is excellent scope to create a spacious open-plan kitchen/dining room.
On the first floor, a naturally light landing benefits from a side window and access to a generously proportioned loft, presenting further potential for conversion, subject to the necessary planning permissions and/or building regulations. The principal bedroom mirrors the bay-fronted sitting room below, while the second double bedroom overlooks the rear garden. Bedroom three is a comfortable smaller double, and the accommodation is completed by a front-facing bathroom with an airing cupboard housing a modern Vaillant combination gas boiler.
A particularly useful feature of the property is the lower ground 'cellar' level, accessed externally from the rear garden. This versatile space comprises a utility cellar with plumbing for a washing machine and power, a separate store room and a WC, all with standing headroom, together with two additional undercroft storage areas offering excellent storage despite their restricted head height.
The established south-east facing rear garden extends to approximately 75ft by 25ft and provides an attractive, level outdoor space. Approached via a decked terrace and steps from the kitchen, the garden features a paved patio, lawn, ornamental pond, mature shrubs and well-maintained trees, creating a wonderful and idyllic setting. A garden shed is positioned at the rear, while gated side access leads to the front garden and driveway.
To the front, the property offers private off-road driveway parking, with additional residents' parking available through Residents' Parking Zone 1 (RPZ1).
Perfectly positioned for city living, the property enjoys a short, level walk to the shops, cafés and restaurants of Argyle Street and the iconic Pulteney Bridge. Bath Spa railway station is also within easy reach, while the nearby Henrietta Park and Sydney Gardens provide beautiful green spaces close to home.
The magnificent Great Pulteney Street, renowned for its impressive Georgian architecture and broad tree-lined pavements, lies within half a mile. At its eastern end, the Holburne Museum offers an acclaimed art gallery, contemporary café and direct access to the Kennet & Avon Canal, providing picturesque walks along the towpath.
St John's Road is particularly popular with families seeking both convenience and outstanding educational opportunities and for those who value level access to the city centre. The area is home to Bathwick St Mary Church School, formerly recognised as The Sunday Times Primary School of the Year, while King Edward's School and Little Willows Nursery are also within easy reach.
Offered with no onward chain, viewings commence from Saturday 15th August.
