- A substantial 4-bedroom detached property requiring complete modernisation
- Wonderful south-facing plot
- Approximately 0.367 of an acre
Situated in an outstanding position, well away from main road traffic on the eastern outskirts of Bath, close to Batheaston, where there are facilities for every day needs and from which regular bus services run to the city centre. There is also extremely good access to the M4 (Junction 18) and the surrounding countryside provides endless countryside walks. Both Bath Spa and Chippenham railway stations provide direct links to London Paddington and Bristol Temple Meads.
Locally, there are various excellent private and state schools including Batheaston and Bathford primary schools, The Royal High, Kingswood, King Edwards and Stonar. The City Centre provides a wealth of cultural, culinary and recreational facilities.

Wychwood is a substantial property sitting within a wonderful Southerly facing plot of 0.367 of an acre. Having not been on the open market for circa 50 years, the property requires complete modernisation throughout. Please read the agent’s note for further details.

The good-sized grounds which measure 0.367 of an acre and the overall setting and views from Wychwood are truly the crowning glory of the property. Our clients’ children and their friends had many adventures tree climbing and running about within them. Combined with the nearby walking around Bannerdown, this location is a great opportunity for those who want countryside living but not isolation. Wrap-around established gardens mainly laid to grass, many mature trees, fruit trees, herbaceous and flower borders. A good-sized terrace runs along the front elevation beside the garden with an area for a table and chairs.
Store room with potential as a home office.
Double garage - with power and light. Sliding access doors on a track. Off-street parking for several cars.

Agent’s Note
Wychwood requires significant modernisation and as such an independent surveyor condition report has been commissioned for review by prospective buyers to read prior to any viewing being conducted. This purchase is either for a buyer looking to undertake a major property refurbishment or potentially utilise the impressive plot for a newly built replacement dwelling, subject to the necessary planning and consents required. We are seeking cash purchasers, as we have been given professional opinion that the property is likely unmortgageable.
