PROPERTY DESCRIPTION

The Property: This beautiful Edwardian family home offers over 2000 square feet of space and occupies the coveted 'view side' of desirable Shelley Road. In the current owners' possession for almost 20 years, the property has been extensively refurbished and extended.

Ground Floor: The entrance vestibule (with stained glass) leads to the long hallway. Here, stairs lead to upper floors and the cellar.

The generous and elegant sitting room is fitted with a cast iron fireplace, ceiling plasterwork and wooden sash windows, whilst alongside, a useful extra reception room can be used as a dining room or space for hobbies.
Further down the hall, a most useful utility room has been added by the owners, with a sink unit, plumbing for washing machine, cloakroom and door to the side.

At the back of the house, the lovely kitchen/dining room has been remodelled to create a wonderful communal space. It comprises a selection of free-standing painted wood Habitat units and island. A 6-ring range-cooker and dishwasher are included. There is also slate flooring, recessed spotlights and a cosy gas-fired, coal-effect stove. There is also a rear splayed bay of double-glazed sash windows and French doors to the garden, with incredible views of the Royal Crescent.

Lower Ground Floor: from the hallway, steps lead down to a most useful cellar comprising a small, tanked and painted storeroom and larger dry-lined workshop area with power and light, workbench, window and built-in dehumidifier.
First Floor: Upstairs, the long landing leads to 3 double bedrooms, bathroom and shower room.
Bedroom 1 is a lovely large front room (currently used as a second sitting room). It features double glazed sash windows, built-in Sharps book casing and a marble fireplace with log-burner.

Bedroom 3 to the rear, is a pretty, double room with French doors to the rear balcony, with crescent views and the 4th bedroom is another double adjacent to bedroom 1.

There is the bonus of both a bathroom and shower room (with cupboard housing the Gas CH boiler), both fitted with modern white suites.

Second Floor: In 2011, the attic was converted to create a very generous bedroom, study and bathroom. The bedroom is an attractive and large double with Velux windows and eaves storage whilst a useful rear study room leads on to the spacious bathroom which is fitted with a bath, WC, hand-basin and shower cubicle.

Outside: There are attractive and well-stocked gardens to the front and rear. At the front, there is a shingled area surrounded by mature and well-kept shrubbery and pathway to the door.

The rear garden features 2 patio seating areas and views to the Royal Crescent. There is a lawn with further beautifully planted shrubbed flower beds. The gardens are easy to manage, and buyers will inherit a number of thriving and attractive plants. A rear pedestrian lane provides a shortcut through Beechen Cliff to the city of Bath.
