An exquisite Grade II* listed Italianate Regency Villa of considerable architectural merit

About this property

  • 10 Bathwick Hill stands as one of the most distinguished properties to enter the market in recent years. This Italianate villa, dating back to 1810 and attributed to John Pinch, showcases the elegance of later Georgian architecture in Bath, particularly in the prestigious area of Bathwick. The rear façade, facing southwest towards National Trust land, is especially noteworthy with its pillared portico framed by twin Ionic columns. The central doorway, accentuated by a splendid fanlight within a perfectly symmetrical design, underscores the unique character of this residence. Having been meticulously refurbished by the current owners, the house offers exquisite accommodation across three floors, with truly exceptional views to the rear.

    Upon entering, you are greeted by a magnificent reception hall adorned with beautiful stone flooring and a grand stone staircase ascending to the upper floor. To the right, the house features a through drawing room, graced by two elegant fireplaces. A door, crowned with a striking fanlight, opens directly to the garden. Adjacent to this is a dining room that seamlessly connects to a beautifully designed kitchen with its own garden access. Completing this level are a utility room and a cloakroom.

    The lower floor offers versatile living spaces, including a double bedroom, a shower room, an office, a TV room, a gym, and ample storage. The upper floor comprises four generously sized double bedrooms, two at the front and two enjoying the glorious vistas over the National Trust land and beyond. A spacious family bathroom is conveniently located on the half landing.

    The gardens are particularly enchanting, featuring a large terrace that spans the width of the house, a well-sized lawn, and borders lush with herbaceous plants. A gate provides direct access to the National Trust land, ideal for scenic walks and dog walking.To the side of the house, there is a shed and a rear door leading to an attached double garage with an electric door. Vehicular access to the garage is conveniently provided via an electric sliding gate from Bathwick Hill.

Local information

  • Situated on the southern lower slopes of Bathwick Hill, 10 Bathwick Hill is located in one of Bath's premier residential areas. It is within half a mile of the Guildhall in the City Centre and adjoins National Trust land at the rear.
  • Nearby amenities include a Tesco Express and a local florist, located conveniently down the hill. The City Centre offers a diverse array of recreational, cultural, and culinary experiences. An excellent selection of schools, both private and state, are within close proximity, including King Edward's School, Prior Park College, The Paragon, Bathwick St Mary's Primary School, and Ralph Allen School.

Additional information

  • The historical importance of 10 Bathwick Hill is profound. The villa, part of the grand procession of villas along Bathwick Hill Road, adds significant historic and townscape value to the Bath Conservation Area. The strategic positioning and modest garden settings, overlooking the city to the west, reflect a conscious aesthetic influenced by Palladian landscape villas. The principal, Neo-Classically styled elevation facing west towards Bathwick fields, rather than the road, is a key element of its architectural significance. This design choice is highlighted by the comparatively ordinary street frontages intended for service access, with an elderly sign on the boundary wall reinforcing its historical role as a tradesman entrance.
