Location - Situated on the south side of the City of Bath, St Matthews Place is within easy level walking distance of Bath Spa train station and local amenities within Widcombe High Street and a wider range of shopping facilities in the nearby City Centre. Widcombe is a highly sought after location within close proximity to some of Bath’s finest schools which include both excellent state and private primary and secondary schools, namely Widcombe Infants & Widcombe Juniors (both Ofsted Outstanding State Primary Schools), King Edwards, Prior Park College and The Paragon. The University of Bath is situated on the south side of the city. Pleasant walks may be enjoyed along the Kennet and Avon Canal towpath to the rear of the property and nearby National Trust owned land surrounding Prior Park. The World Heritage City of Bath itself offers a vast array of cultural, leisure, shopping and sporting facilities. There is an excellent selection of restaurants to suit all tastes. Bath is well supported by commuter links to both Bristol and London (some 10 miles approximately from Junction 18 of the M4 at Tormarton). Bath Spa railway station (less than 5 minutes walk) provides high speed links to London Paddington (90 minutes approximately), Bristol Temple Meads and West Country rail network. Trains depart from Paddington on a half hour basis throughout the day.

BUYER’S PREMIUM
Please be aware all purchasers are subject to a £1,500 + VAT (£1,800 inc VAT) buyer's premium which is ALWAYS payable upon exchange of contracts whether the sale is concluded before, during or after the auction date.
GUIDE PRICE
An indication of the seller's current minimum acceptable price at auction. The guide price or range of guide prices is given to assist consumers in deciding whether to pursue a purchase. It is usual, but not always the case, that a provisional reserve range is agreed between the seller and the auctioneer at the start of marketing. As the reserve is not fixed at this stage and can be adjusted by the seller at any time up to the day of the auction in the light of interest shown during the marketing period, a guide price is issued. This guide price can be shown in the form of a minimum and maximum price range within which an acceptable sale price (reserve) would fall, or as a single price figure within 10% of which the minimum acceptable price (reserve) would fall. A guide price is different to a reserve price (see separate definition). Both the guide price and the reserve price can be subject to change up to and including the day of the auction.
RESERVE PRICE
The seller's minimum acceptable price at auction and the figure below which the auctioneer cannot sell. The reserve price is not disclosed and remains confidential between the seller and the auctioneer. Both the guide price and the reserve price can be subject to change up to and including the day of the auction.
