Battlefields, Bath

Battlefields House is an impressive Grade II Listed country apartment residence dating back to the early 19th century, set within picturesque parkland communal grounds with far reaching views over open countryside.

Positioned at the top of Lansdown, the property combines the tranquillity of a rural setting with the convenience of being only four miles from the historic city of Bath and within reach of Bristol. Nearby amenities include Lansdown Golf Course, Bath Racecourse, and a selection of excellent schools. Venture to Bristol for the city or the lovely village of Doynton for a pint and meal at The Cross House or enjoy a breakfast at Lilliput Farm Kitchen on route to Marshfield. The location is a gateway to the Cotswold Villages.

With its location on Bath's northern edge, the property is also perfectly placed for access to the M4 at Junction 18, making it ideal for commuting. The rural setting is perfect for those wanting a quieter environment and the Cotswold Way is almost on the doorstep.

The sweeping drive off Lansdown leads to the beautiful front facade and parking. A magnificent communal reception hall greets you, complete with a striking tessellated floor. The ground floor apartment itself is beautifully presented throughout. A welcoming entrance hall with storage leads into the elegant sitting room with floor to ceiling windows and stunning flooring. A door leads out to a terrace.

The kitchen, finished to the highest standard with Harvey Jones units and oak worktops, is complemented by Neff integrated appliances. There is ample room for a dining table, while large windows provide delightful views over the gardens. The inner hall leads to the bedrooms and shower room.

Bedroom one benefits from a dressing area with plenty of fitted wardrobe space. A generously sized second bedroom has plenty of room for a bed, desk and storage. The modern shower room completes the accommodation, tastefully fitted with a modern style.

The house has been carefully looked after by the share of freehold self-managing owners who all have long leases of 951 years. The roof and stone work on the building has been carefully refurbished and maintained. Pets are not allowed in the lease. The heating system is an oil fired communal system which was installed in 2020. The building benefits from a septic drainage system.
