Royal Crescent, Bath, BA1

Your own private steps from the iconic Royal Crescent descend to the sunny front courtyard garden. This spacious flagstone terrace is a wonderful space for a potted garden and seating area. There is access to the two vaults which are private to the apartment. The generous entrance hall includes tall built-in cupboards and to the right is a practical utility room. The sitting room is well-proportioned with good height ceilings and two tall sash windows intact with Georgian style glazing bars and working shutters. A decorative Bath stone fireplace provides a central focus with shelving either side. With the south facing courtyard allowing the sun to filter in, this is a wonderful reception area. The inner hall provides several built-in storage cupboards and access to the remaining rooms of this large apartment. The kitchen has well planned shaker style units in the perfect ‘U’ design with a polished work surface. There is a decorative fireplace and plenty of space for a dining table. Along the hallway there is an internal patio area providing another spot for planting, with the main bedroom having a window overlooking it. Opposite is a smart recently refurbished bathroom, plus there is also a second shower room. The two further double bedrooms both have windows overlooking a further lightwell. This beautifully presented apartment is a wonderful opportunity to live in this exceptional location which has so much more space than many city homes.

Situation

Bath has a wonderful mixture of architecture from over the centuries, with Georgian properties being the most prominent. It is the stunning sweeping crescents and beautiful squares that add to the appeal of this gorgeous Georgian city. The allure of Georgian homes attracts both international and domestic buyers. Many Londoners who no longer need to live there but enjoy city culture and would like the capital to be in easy reach (London Paddington is less than 90 minutes away by train). The Royal Crescent is an architectural masterpiece by any standards and is the centrepiece of Bath’s Georgian heritage. It is one of the city's most desirable and prestigious locations. An excellent range of shopping, restaurants, museums and theatres plus literature, music and comedy festivals are within walking distance in the city centre. Closer to hand is the charming pedestrian street of Margaret's Buildings with highly regarded restaurants, boutiques, bookshops, and art galleries. There is also good access to Junction 18 of the M4. Just opposite is the private lawn of the Royal Crescent for the exclusive use of the residents. Below the ha-ha is the Royal Victoria Park providing a wonderful green expanse which is home to the revered Botanical Gardens.
