Bathwick Street, Bath, BA2

This Grade II Listed townhouse is arranged over the classic five floors providing versatile accommodation, currently laid out as four bedrooms and three reception rooms. It was restored by the current owners nearly twenty years ago where they concentrated on highlighting the wonderful period features, it now is ready to be decorated and enhanced again. The two reception rooms on the ground floor provide the perfect study and TV room, whilst the first floor drawing room is a stunning room with a high corniced ceiling, period fireplace and three full height Georgian sash windows with working shutters. The bedroom suite above also replicas the spacious square footage. The lower ground floor kitchen is a charming ‘live-in kitchen with the Bath stone surround housing the cast iron range believed to date from 1790 still in working as an open fire. With a free-standing style and plenty of room for a large central dining table this is a charming room for family suppers, a charming period home full of character and features.

Outside

The garden to the rear is level and enclosed by stone walling, a wonderful addition to a home so close to the city centre. A central path is flanked by deep herbaceous borders plus mature shrubs. At the far end of the garden is a shepherd’s hut, with mains electricity, re-built in situ and including a wood burning stove to keep you cosy. A fun addition to the garden.

Situation

This townhouse is located within a Grade II Listed Georgian terrace and will be very popular due to its level walk via handsome Georgian terraces or through Henrietta Park to the famous Pulteney Bridge. Bath offers excellent shopping, restaurants, museums, and theatres, so this convenient location allows you to walk to everything. National Trust open countryside is just up the road from the house. Lovely strolls can be enjoyed around Sydney Gardens, and the Kennet & Avon canal towpath. The contrast with the closeness of the city centre to surrounding countryside, is in our opinion, one of the major attractions of this area. Also nearby are The Cleveland Pools, Britain's oldest lido dating back over 200 years which has just re-opened after a magnificent refurbishment. Bathwick is also close to Bath University just at the top of Bathwick Hill and just around the corner is Bathwick St Mary Church Primary School, arguably one of the most well-regarded schools in the city. Communication links are excellent with a mainline rail link to London Paddington.
