House For Sale £450,000
A rare opportunity to purchase a unique former Chapel in the popular village of Bathford. This charming period property (dated 1839), has been converted into a spacious open plan one bedroom home, with scope to transform the space into a family home subject to planning approval, previously granted, but which has now lapsed. This is the first time the property has been to the open market, having been a chapel and then a studio. The garden is mainly laid to lawn with several mature trees. The front of the chapel opens onto Bathford High Street and there are fantastic walks up to Browns Folly Nature Reserve, into wide open countryside or down to the River Avon or into Bath along the canal. For paddle boarding and kayaks, you can access the water just a short distance away at Batheaston.
Situation
The property is located on Bathford High Street and Chapel Row, with views over Bannerdown and the hills beyond. Bathford Primary School (rated outstanding by ofsted) is only meters down the road and Bathford itself has a busy village life with local shops including a community run village shop, a pub and is only three miles east of the City of Bath. The setting is ideal for those looking for commuting access to Bath and Bristol, (there is a regular bus service to Bath city centre only meters away from the property) and is well placed for access to the M4, either via the A46 or Junction 17 at Chippenham. Both Bath Spa and Chippenham railway stations offer regular services to London Paddington (90 minutes approximately from Bath Spa) and to the West Country.
