Description
Positioned at the centre of this historic Grade I Listed Georgian terrace and designed by the renowned architect Thomas Baldwin this light and spacious townhouse was built between 1792-1796 of limestone elevations under a slate tile roof. The property has been extended to the rear and opens on to a west facing courtyard garden leading to substantial 26’ garaging and private parking.
The accommodation flows over five floors, filled with period character and boasting light and spacious rooms with high ceilings and a wealth of period features to include ornate plasterwork, open fireplaces with their original surrounds, huge sash windows with their wooden shutters and a cantilevered staircase.
An extension to the rear forms a large open plan kitchen/breakfast room on the ground floor, whilst above leads from the main bedroom into a huge en suite bathroom with a private integral staircase down to a large dressing room with built in cupboards – a privacy door opens onto the half landing below.
The upper floors provide five further bedrooms, one having and en suite bathroom and there is a further bathroom and a shower room.
The lower ground floor has been used as a self contained apartment with access from the front steps to the lower front courtyard and cellar vaults. The original stairs connect to the ground floor and there is a useful utility room and storage on this floor.

Situation
This is a truly excellent position in Bath. It is next to Sydney Gardens, The Holburne Museum with its acclaimed café, The Kennet and Avon Canal and tow path, and the historic St. Mary’s of Bathwick Church. Being a short level stroll into the centre of Bath at the other end of Great Pulteney Street, is a delightful feature. “The Rec”, home to Bath Rugby is 500 metres away and excellent shopping, cultural and leisure facilities are on your doorstep. Access to major transport links is equally easy with Bath Spa railway station providing a fast route to London Paddington and the A4/M4/A36 are near at hand. Excellent schooling is close by, the nearest being King Edwards School, St Mary’s, Bathwick Primary School, The Paragon and Prior Park.
Sydney Gardens has recently undergone a refurbishment from a lottery grant to improve and upkeep the tennis courts, beautiful grounds with direct access to the canal path, which make it a unique heritage asset.

The next steps...

Establish funds

How will you fund the purchase?

Before making an offer on a property you will want to consider your financial situation, your income and outgoings.

Will you finance the purchase of your next property from the sale of an existing property which can put you in a chain, arrange a mortgage through your bank or buy the property outright.

To help you finance your next property purchase, we have a long established relationship with an independent mortgage broker who can discuss your situation with you.

Remember that having a 'mortgage decision in principle' can make you a more attractive buyer when you make an offer on a property. Contact our mortgage advisers for free, no obligation and impartial advice.

Some advantages of a broker are:

They do all the legwork for you, working on your behalf with the lender
They compare wholesale mortgage rates from a large number of banks and lenders all at once
Their wholesale interest rates can be lower than retail (bank branch) interest rates
They offer more loan options because they work with numerous banks and lenders
They can finance tricky deals because of their knowledge and various lending partners
They are typically easier to get in contact with, and are less bureaucratic.

However advantages of working with your bank are:

You may be able to build off an existing relationship (and gain discounts if you have a checking or savings account)
You may already know the banker who will handle your mortgage
Banks may be more accountable than a smaller shop
They may offer lower interest rates in some cases
Their ability to add mortgage to existing banking profile and make automatic payments from linked account.
