2 bed flat for sale

Lansdown Crescent, Bath BA1

The courtyard apartment, number 6 was refurbished some 20 years ago which can be accessed from the main hallway with steps directly into the apartment or through the pretty front courtyard which leads solely to the front door of the property.

Once inside the lower ground floor, one of the first striking features is the southerly aspect seen through tall Georgian windows and therefore giving light and an airy feel.

The main sitting room is open to the dining area and the fitted kitchen and leads to the inner hall where there is access to both bedrooms and shower room. From the larger of the two bedrooms there are steps up to an ensuite bathroom overlooking the rear mini courtyard.

The entrance hall itself not only leads to the sitting room but to the study and in turn the utility vault which offers plumbing for appliances, heating and ample storage.

Lansdown Crescent was built by John Palmer between 1789 and 1793 and is situated in a fine elevated position enjoying majestic views over the city and beyond, along with a beautiful aspect overlooking open farmland and grazing sheep.

The unesco World Heritage City of Bath is only a short walk away and provides easy access to an extensive range of chain and independent retail outlets together with a fine selection of restaurants, cafes and wine bars. There are many cultural activities available in Bath, such as the Number One Royal Crescent and Holbourne Museums, many pre-London shows at The Theatre Royal and a world-renowned music and literary festival. In addition, there are world class sporting facilities available at Bath Rugby and Cricket Clubs and at Bath University.

Nearby there is the charming, pedestrianised Margaret’s Building which has a selection of wonderful art galleries, boutique shops and restaurants.
