228 Trowbridge Road, Bradford-on-Avon BA15 1EY

Life here is centred around simplicity rather than excess. A home that feels comfortable, manageable and easy to settle into from day one. This two bedroom end terrace cottage sits within easy reach of both Bath and Bradford on Avon, offering a balance between everyday convenience and access to open countryside. It is a home that has appealed to first-time buyers, long-term owners and tenants alike, with many enjoying the nearby field walks and dog friendly surroundings. The day often begins in the kitchen, where there is space for a small table and chairs, making it a natural spot for a morning coffee before the day gets underway. With just two principal reception spaces, the living room becomes the heart of the home. It is somewhere to work, relax and spend time throughout the year, helped by a wood burning stove that brings warmth and atmosphere during the colder months. The cottage performs surprisingly well through the seasons. Even during recent summer temperatures of around 29°C outside, the interior remained noticeably cooler at around 24°C. In winter, the gas fired central heating system and wood burner create a comfortable and welcoming environment without feeling oversized or difficult to manage. One of the property’s greatest strengths lies at the rear. Away from the road, the atmosphere changes completely. The south-facing garden enjoys the best of the day’s sunlight and feels remarkably private, enclosed by established high hedging. It is a space that naturally lends itself to outdoor dining, gardening or simply sitting quietly with a book as the sun moves across the garden. With access only through the house, it also feels secure and sheltered. Upstairs, the two bedrooms provide practical and flexible accommodation. Whether used as a main bedroom and guest room, a home office, or space for a young family, the layout offers options without unnecessary complexity. The location works particularly well for buyers who enjoy an active outdoor lifestyle. Countryside walks are close by, with nearby fields frequently used by local dog owners. A coffee stop is within easy reach, while the wider range of independent cafés, pubs and amenities in Bradford on Avon can be reached in little over a kilometre. What stands out most is the contrast between the front and rear of the property. From the road, it feels conveniently connected. Step into the garden and the pace slows considerably. The owners have particularly enjoyed the privacy, the south facing aspect and the feeling of being able to retreat into a peaceful space at the end of the day.
