Latest house prices for Peasedown St John, Bath

Set on a hilltop roughly six miles south of Bath, Peasedown St John grew significantly during the nineteenth century to serve the local Somerset coalfields. While the mines have long since closed, the village has evolved into a substantial community that avoids the ‘commuter suburb’ feel by retaining its own infrastructure and active local life. It sits just off the A367 - the old Roman Fosse Way - which provides a direct link into the city, though the village itself is surrounded by the steep valleys and plateaus of the North Somerset countryside. Most of the practicalities are handled along Bath Road, where you’ll find the primary school, doctors' surgery, and a handful of pubs and shops. It’s a place that feels functional and open, offering a bit more breathing space than the city below, with plenty of footpaths leading out toward Wellow and Shoscombe for those who prefer being outdoors.
