Land At Miles House, Bathwick Hill, Bath BA2

The planning consent permits (subject to conditions) the construction of a modern interpretation of a Georgian villa consisting of four apartments with the benefit of strong energy efficiency credentials due to the requirement for solar panels and air source heat pumps.

The original detached Georgian villa which occupies part of the site was converted into four apartments and sold to individual leaseholders in 2021/22. The new building is three storeys tall with a lower ground floor that gains natural light and ventilation from lightwells and the use of a private rear courtyard. The new development also benefits from lift access to all floors and parking at the front of the development.

The original detached Grade II listed Georgian building located on the site has now been converted into four apartments and sold to individual leaseholders who benefit from 999-year leases. The freehold of this building and the surrounding land is owned by the seller. The site consists of substantial private grounds bounded by the canal on its west side, the garden of No. 8 St Mary's Close along the northern boundary; and the garages for Dunsford Place that sit on the retaining wall forming the eastern boundary. The houses on St Mary's Close are a mixture of detached and semi-detached 1960s dwellings with long gardens running down to the canal. Along either side of Bathwick Hill, housing types vary between terraced Georgian townhouses, closely spaced detached houses in smaller garden plots and larger detached villas in larger grounds. Miles House itself was originally a rectory designed in a restrained Italianate style as a villa behind an imposing ashlar stone wall containing an arched pedestrian gateway with a carved stone bracketed cornice pediment and an open, gate-posted carriage entrance. Being on Bathwick Hill, the overall site slopes by just over 3 metres from the eastern boundary down to the western boundary.
