A beautifully presented former coach house in a superb location on the outskirts of the city.
Formerly the coach house to the adjacent property and dating back to Georgian times, Stable Cottage has been the subject of a tasteful and dramatic transformation over the last 12 years. The quality of fittings, workmanship and attention to detail is exemplary with the clever and well-planned layout being of particular note in this quiet, gem of a house.
The L-shaped design of the cottage and its south and westerly aspects means that the sun is enjoyed throughout the day and the property is warm and light.
The property is entered through an entrance porch with oak flooring which leads through to the large main reception hall. The kitchen/dining room has been recently refurbished to a very high standard with a bespoke base and wall units, high-end appliances and a waterfall island, complemented by a beautiful parque oak floor. Bi-fold doors lead out to a sheltered patio and the upper garden. In addition, on the ground floor benefits from a home office or dining room with oriel window, the third, double bedroom/study and a terrific garden room with large doors leading out to a second terrace. On a practical note there is a good-sized utility room and an adjacent WC.
The first floor offers an impressive, spacious, triple- aspect sitting room overlooking western Bath through a large oriel window. The large master bedroom has French doors leading to its own balcony and an en- suite shower room. There is a further, tasteful double bedroom and a family bathroom. The curved landing is light and provides additional, excellent storage space.
The cottage also benefits from underfloor heating throughout.
Outside
There is a delightful, landscaped garden with pretty ornamental pond and paved sun terrace, all taking full advantage of the southerly and westerly aspects. There is also a kitchen garden/ vegetable patch. Approached via electric double gates, a gravelled driveway providing ample parking leads to a block paved area in the upper garden.

This is the perfect house for a downsizer being tucked away behind gates and of a very manageable size.
