An attractive detached double fronted cottage, which has been recently transformed. The unique location overlooking the beautiful Avon Valley, provides a rare combination of rural retreat with a country garden full of wild flowers and wildlife, whilst having the World Heritage City of Bath just 4 miles away. The kitchen has been fitted with contemporary units and an integrated electric fan oven, all complemented by an oak worktop. From the kitchen are French doors leading to the south-facing deck; perfect for summer dining. The sitting room is a charming, cosy space with an exposed Bath stone wall and a central fireplace. On the first floor are the three bedrooms. The family bathroom has been upgraded with floor to ceiling travertine tiles and white fittings. There are wooden floors, with underfloor heating throughout.
Outside
This charming cottage stands in just under a third of an acre. The garden contains exotic Burdock, old fruit trees, bluebells and primroses and a bank of wild garlic. The garden is partly mown and partly rewilded to encourage animal and insect life. The Kennet and Avon canal towpaths leads to miles of fabulous country walks.
Situation
The cottage is located at the end of a no-through road with easy access into Bath. Bath is a World Heritage site and attracts an extensive range of restaurants, bars, pubs and retail outlets, in addition to the notable historical buildings for which the city is so well known. With a choice of routes by road, train or canal this is truly a wonderful opportunity to enjoy the rural position with the convenience of the city nearby. You can cycle into the heart of Bath along the towpath, so no need to use the car; for the adventurous you could paddleboard or canoe into town! Mill Cottage was originally known as ‘Engineman’s Cottage’, where for over two centuries, generations of dedicated Engine men kept the water-powered Claverton Pump running, to take water from the River Avon below, to the Kennet and Avon canal above – a real treat for historians or those interested in Victorian Technology.
