Description
Westfield House is a stunning Grade II listed Georgian Manor House set off Bloomfield Road with an impressive approach between stone pillars to the driveway and parking area. The well-maintained grounds surround the property with a classic in-out driveway.
The ground floor apartment has an impressive bay window with secondary glazing in the drawing room providing an abundance of natural light with breathtaking views across Bath towards Wales and on a clear day the Severn Bridge can be seen. The property has an abundance of original features including the detailed plaster cornice and working window shutters. There are two bedrooms and one is currently used as a dressing room with extensive built-in wardrobes. The kitchen has generous unit storage and worktop preparation space. The bathroom features a white suite with a shower.
Externally Westfield House has well-tended communal gardens and each apartment has a garage and an off-street parking space.
There is no onward chain.
The property would benefit from some upgrading and modernisation.
