House For Sale £1,150,000
Ralph Allen Drive, Bath, Somerset, BA2


Description
Built in 1928, this detached family home sits in the centre of its plot, surrounded by enclosed gardens. The main entrance is at the side of the house and opens into a light hallway. There's an archway into the kitchen/dining room - a generous space with engineered oak flooring, double aspect windows and a kitchen island/breakfast bar separating the rooms' functions. A useful larder and WC fit into the understairs space.
Adjacent to the kitchen is the family room - an extension to the original house - with windows on all sides, French-style doors onto a rear garden terrace and a door into the utility on one side.
The ground floor accommodation also includes a living room with stone fireplace, woodburner and double aspect windows.

Upstairs, the banisters wrap around a light-filled landing, leading to all four bedrooms and the family bathroom. Each of the bedrooms have attractive views onto the gardens and neighbours beyond. Plans for extending this house further, to create large bedrooms and additional bathrooms, are a long way through planning and are expected to be approved.
Recent improvements include new double-glazed windows and a new boiler.

Gardens and Grounds
The garden wraps around the whole house, enclosed by a mix of hedging and fencing. At the front, wooden gates open onto a paved driveway, with parking for three cars to the side as well as plenty of turning space.
New, wooden bin and bike stores are neatly tucked into the corner on one side; on the other a lawn, which continues around the side, is surrounded by deep border with shrubs and small trees. At the rear and the other side, the garden is mostly lawn, with a few apple and cherry trees, a beech tree and beech hedging.

The paved terrace continues around the house, with space for dining, and leading to the rear entrance to the garage (it has double doors at the front). Currently used for storage and as an office, the garage has built-in cupboards, laminate flooring and electric/internet power sockets (there's Truespeed fibre optic cabling in the area).


Situated at the top of Ralph Allen Drive, opposite Prior Park College and Gardens, Hadley Cottage is in a semi-rural location. It's close to countryside, woodland and walks, yet just 1.2 miles from Bath Spa railway station which has a mainline rail link to London Paddington and Bristol Temple Meads. There are local shops, doctors/pharmacy and a pub nearby.

Bath's city centre has an exemplary range of restaurants, bars and entertainment facilities, as well as numerous cultural attractions. There are many sporting opportunities in and around Bath including golf, cricket, horse racing and rugby. A number of good state and independent schools are within easy reach, including Prior Park, Ralph Allen and King Edwards.
