About this property

  • 5 Mount Beacon is a substantial family home with an adjoining two storey annexe with bedroom and shower room, situated in one of Bath's most desirable locations on the northern side of the city.

    Internally, the property has been renovated and extended by the current owners creating superb open plan living and exceptionally well-proportioned rooms. 5 Mount Beacon is presented in excellent decorative order and has accommodation arranged over four floors. All improvements have been implemented with considerable style and attention to detail.

    Upon entering, you are greeted by an inviting reception hall with library/study to the left and separate cloakroom to the right. Double doors open out into the incredible open plan living/kitchen/dining room split over two floors which is of particular note. There is a double height glass extension to the rear elevation, with stairs that lead down from the living area to the double height drawing room. The light afforded by the glass elevation is breath-taking and there are superb views over the west facing walled garden and beyond.

    The kitchen/breakfast area comprises an extensive range of base and wall units incorporating a Miele induction hob, two ovens and various other integrated appliances with a large walk in larder. The open plan aspect provides excellent entertaining and living space with an open fireplace as the central focus point in the upstairs living area. Sliding doors open out onto the west facing terrace and gardens. There is also a utility/boot room leading from the kitchen. American Walnut stairs with a glass balustrade lead to the double height drawing room and further versatile living space with sliding doors opening out onto the garden. There is also a media room and gym. There is under floor heating on the ground and lower ground floors.

    On the first floor are three double bedrooms. Bedroom two is complete with a study or dressing room and shares a Jack and Jill bathroom with bedroom four. The third double bedroom has an ensuite bathroom. All of which are very well appointed.

    On the second floor is the principal bedroom suite with a dressing room, bedroom and luxurious Villeroy and Boch bathroom with separate shower and separate WC. The main bedroom has superb views of the garden, St. Stephens church, the city of Bath and the countryside beyond. There is also a further double bedroom with an ensuite bathroom on this floor.

    In addition there is a large attic space that is fully boarded and insulated with two large Velux windows.

    Adjoining the property is a newly refurbished one bedroom annexe with shower room, which could also be used as a separate office space.


    Exterior

    The property is approached via a well maintained front garden with herbaceous borders and off street parking for 2 cars with EV charging point.

    To the rear of the house is the stunning west facing terrace and mature gardens which have a country house feel, and all set in approximately 0.2 acres with the total plot measuring about 0.28 acres. The gardens are enclosed by a high garden wall made of natural Bath stone spanning a beautifully maintained lawned garden with well-stocked herbaceous borders. A variety of different Magnolias, Jacquemontii Birch, fruit and Olive trees sit alongside well-tended shrubs that help to provide privacy and seclusion. There is also a large kitchen garden. At the end of the garden is a pretty gate opening out onto Richmond Lane
