Bengrove, Camerton, Bath, Somerset, BA2

Bengrove House, a detached home built in 1845 between Carlingcott and Camerton, is nestled on delightful land once thriving as a hopyard and boasts connections to the Somerset Coal Canal, exuding historical charm. Adding to its rich tapestry of history, the railway line from the nearby Camerton Colliery once ran directly in front of the property, making it a site of significant local interest. Rurally located yet within striking distance of the villages of Timsbury and Peasedown St John with their excellent amenities and the centre of Bath, the position of this charming home offers tranquillity and convenience in equal measure. Laid out over two floors and featuring three bedrooms, the current owners have fully renovated the first floor. This includes a complete bathroom rework, boarding the bedrooms to improve thermal efficiency, plastering throughout, and electrical rewiring. Additionally, the property has planning permission for a two-story side extension to add a principal suite with an ensuite bathroom and additional living or kitchen space below, along with new windows to the back of the property and a parking area. The owners remark, 'the downstairs space has lots of potential and opportunity to change the layout to create the perfect living/entertaining space; otherwise, it works very well in its current layout for us as a family.' Set within well-established gardens, the country location along a quiet tree-lined lane shared by two other properties and surrounded by open fields and woodland behind guarantees that this home offers a genuine feeling of sanctuary. ‘When we first viewed Bengrove House, we were won over by its attractive 'chocolate box' appearance – a peaceful in the country with an air or romance about it.’ ‘The south facing garden enjoys all day sun and has been a fantastic place for family get togethers and barbeques with friends.’ ‘The privacy here is excellent. In fact, the previous owner said to us, “only the squirrels and the birds can see in,” and they were right!’ ‘A favourite spot is under the cherry blossom tree during sunset with a gin and tonic!’ ‘The driveway and double garage ensure there is plenty of parking for all.’ ‘As a green belt area there are lovely walks and abundant wildlife.’ ‘The community along Wick Lane is great, with everyone looking out for each other. Our son plays with the other children in the area, enjoying the freedom afforded by the fields, woods and garden.’ Additional Information: Postcode: BA2 0PH Local Authority: BANES Council Tax Band: F Services: Mains water and electric.
