<p>On the market for a cool £1.5 million (just under $2 million USD), this Victorian Turkish Bath House features 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, 2 reception rooms, a home theatre, sea views&#8230;and a bowling lane! What more could you possibly want?</p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;">THE HISTORY OF THE OLD TURKISH BATH HOUSE</h2>
<p>Built in 1871, this Grade II Listed property was originally a Victorian Turkish Bath House. However, the Bath House only lasted six years before it was bought by Uplands Girls&#8217; School and used as a saltwater swimming pool for the students.</p>
<p>It was later used as a community hall, then during WW2 the property was used as a church. In later years it became a glass factory before finally being left derelict in the early 2000s.</p>

<p>When the current owners bought the property it was falling into disrepair, having been left derelict for quite some time. The building was starting to look a sorry state, however, this didn&#8217;t put off the current owners who were determined to restore it.</p>

<p>The owner says <em>&#8220;we fell in love with the building as soon as we saw it and knew we had to save it. It was a massive project and took over 3 years to complete. We were determined to keep any existing features that remained but knew that in order to convert it into a family home, we needed to be creative as well as sympathetic to the original building.&#8221;</em></p>
