A substantial, semi-detached Victorian family home in a desirable location with views.
Number 7, The Tyning is an attractive, semi-detached Victorian home packed with period features and recently updated with a new kitchen with underfloor heating and double-glazed windows, as well as newly fitted double glazed windows on the first floor. Inside, the charm of this elegant property is immediate: a spacious and light- filled hall is a welcoming entrance with its high ceilings, leaded glass windows and original switchback staircase. There's a cloakroom and WC here too. Steps down lead to the lower ground floor with a surprisingly large footprint, including a utility room, games/workshop room, office and several storage areas - all dry and useful. The ground floor spaces have been opened up to enhance the light and views to the garden and beyond. The new kitchen has a central island with breakfast bar, painted wooden cabinetry and Silestone worktops. There's a gasrange oven, ceramic sink and space for an American-style fridge-freezer. Adjoining the kitchen are both the dining and living spaces - one large room with triple bay windows either end, the dining room with double glazed doors opening onto the garden terrace. There are two period fireplaces featuring working gas fires; this house is warm and well insulated. The expansive views continue on the first floor where the principal bedroom suite has generous proportions, its en suite featuring a bath and shower. There's a second bedroom and shower room on this floor too. Up to the second floor, the ceiling heights remain high in two goodsized bedrooms and a shower room.This property has real kerbside appeal, its front door tucked away behind Bath stone pillars, a wrought iron gate and evergreen hedging. The front garden is mostly paved, with some planting in beds next to the house and a mature Wisteria framing the canopy and entrance. A wooden gate to one side allows access to the rear garden. At the rear, a few steps down from the dining room 'French' doors lead to a paved terrace. Additional steps remain where there once was access directly into the kitchen, afeature changed when this room was recently modernised and improved. There are several areas to sit and take in the wonderful views this West-facing garden offers. A level lawn fills the rest of the garden with curved beds full of mature shrubs, trees and a shed at the very end.
The Tyning is a pretty and quiet residential road just off Widcombe Hill, its elevated position providing wonderful views across Bath. Widcombe is a popular area with a thriving community and high street packed with cafes, a butcher, florist, pharmacy, supermarket and several pubs. There's a local church, social club and schools.
