Life at Number One Dafford’s Buildings

There is a sense of individuality to this house.

Set within a peaceful residential street in the heart of Larkhall, it carries the story of its past, but has been shaped over time into something far more practical for modern living. Originally an 1800s cottage, and once serving the workers who built the surrounding homes, its history is still present. Today, it presents as a comfortable and highly adaptable family house.

Traces of its origins remain - original floorboards underfoot, elements of the façade and small, unexpected details that reveal themselves gradually. In places, earlier layers sit quietly underneath more recent ones, including a hidden staircase tucked beneath the current structure.

From the moment you arrive, there is a sense of ease. A private driveway, finished with sustainable permeable tarmac provides convenient parking for a standard size car, with provision already in place for electric vehicle charging.

From here, the house opens naturally. The kitchen-dining space connects easily to a sunny patio, a simple, well-placed spot for morning coffee or a moment in the sun before the day begins.

At its centre sits a kitchen that is entirely its own. Built by English Rose, a brand known for its mid-century designs and enduring craftsmanship, it brings a distinctive personality to the house. The rich red cabinetry, inspired by the iconic style seen in Call the Midwife is both nostalgic and robust, built with a quality that stands apart from modern equivalents.

Set against this, bespoke stainless steel worktops introduce a more contemporary, almost professional edge. Formed as a single continuous surface, with the sink seamlessly integrated and the upstand cast as one piece, they offer both a striking visual contrast and a level of practicality rarely found in domestic kitchens; durable, hygienic and exceptionally easy to maintain.

A Smeg Opera range cooker with induction hob, double oven, rotisserie and pyrolytic self-cleaning function anchors the kitchen, combining everyday practicality with a more design-led feel.

The space opens into a generous dining area, creating a sociable setting for everyday living and gathering, while a separate sitting room offers a quieter place to retreat.

Throughout, the house has been significantly improved, with a focus on making everyday living straightforward and comfortable. Fully rewired and with a new central heating system, alongside upgraded insulation, it is a home that feels warm, efficient and easy to run.

Triple glazing to the kitchen and extension enhances that sense of comfort, keeping the house quiet and well insulated throughout the seasons.

The bathrooms have been carefully renovated and the house has recently been redecorated and recarpeted. It is ready to move straight into, with the freedom to refine and shape it further over time.

The Extension

The rear extension adds a particularly flexible dimension to the house.

Well finished and thoughtfully arranged, it offers the potential for multi-generational living, guest accommodation, or even a separate income stream through short or long-term letting.

Engineered walnut flooring runs throughout, with solid walnut used for the steps and integrated storage, adding warmth and continuity to the space. A utility area has been carefully incorporated, alongside space for a home office, creating a highly functional and adaptable part of the house.

Upstairs

Upstairs, the rooms are bright and well proportioned, with two generous doubles and a smaller room currently arranged as a home office, easily suited as a single bedroom.

The Garden

To the front, the garden is a standout feature. Flat, expansive and enjoying sunlight throughout the day, it has been carefully landscaped and lovingly maintained. Thoughtfully landscaped borders frame the space, reflecting the current owner’s passion for gardening, while a generous lawn provides a safe and inviting setting for families.

It is a garden that feels established, private and easy to enjoy.

Life in Larkhall

Living here, you quickly become part of one of Bath’s most cherished communities.

The street itself has a rare sense of neighbourliness - a place where people look out for one another with a gentle cul-de-sac feel that makes it particularly well suited to families.

A short walk brings you to Larkhall’s thriving high street. Independent shops, cafés and everyday essentials are all close at hand, from fresh bread at the bakery and seasonal produce from the farm shop to coffee at The Village Café & Bar.

Excellent schools are nearby and Bath city centre is easily accessible, whether on foot, by regular bus routes or by car. For those needing to travel further afield, there is straightforward access to the M4.

This is a house with a story - a home that has adapted over time to become practical, comfortable and full of quiet character.

A place to move straight into, and, over time, to make entirely your own
