High Street, Bath, BA2

Lyndhurst is the most charming family home, nestled in the heart of the ever popular village of Norton St.Philip. Being just seven miles from Bath and yet surrounded by open countryside, this home will appeal to families looking for the perfect blend of countryside living and cultural appeal. Built in 1886, Lyndhurst was the village Post Office and remained so until the 1950’s. There are four reception rooms and six bedrooms, all lending themselves to a multitude of purposes to suit every need. The original sash windows and flooring remain throughout the house, as do many fireplaces. The warm and welcoming entrance hall retains the original quarry tiles and opens into the reception rooms with original parquet flooring. Upstairs boasts a galleried landing with views over open countryside to the rear and opens onto six bedrooms. The south/west facing rear garden and back windows command magnificent views of the church, community open spaces and the surrounding countryside. The garden is filled with a variety of plants, trees and shrubs and is the perfect place to catch the afternoon and evening sun. Norton St.Philip has a strong sense of community offering a local primary school and easy access in to Bath for the many excellent schools in the area. The Newt and Babington House are within easy reach. The 14th century George Inn, one of Britains oldest taverns, was awarded Pub of the year this year and has charming hotel accommodation for guests and visitors should you manage to fill those six bedrooms!
