Sydney Place, Bath, Somerset BA2

Georgian architecture is at its finest in number 102 Sydney Place, featuring elaborate ironwork, decorative windows and elegant proportions. Flat 2 shares its main front door with four other apartments - the communal entrance hall has flagstone flooring and huge double doors with a transom window that leads to this ground floor apartment's own entrance.
Inside, the apartment has been designed to maximise the architecture and incorporate additional storage. An inner hall has a lowered ceiling, intercom system and doors to each of the rooms. The main kitchen/dining/living room is impressive, with high ceilings, ornate coving and dado rail and two arched and panelled windows with views of The Holburne Museum and Sydney Gardens. Original wooden floorboards run the full length of the room. The contemporary kitchen, with sleek, minimal units and island, is at one end of the room and a fireplace with marble surround is a focal point along one wall.
The bedroom is at the rear of the property, its large, shuttered windows overlooking a walled garden. There's storage and shelving built into the alcove spaces, and further storage on a mezzanine level reached via a step ladder (this space is above the internal hall and bathroom).
