5 Bartholomew House is a stunning penthouse apartment within this imposing Edwardian building, and enjoys a prominent location on the northern side of the town with far reaching views from the reception room windows.
An oak door leads to an inviting reception hall with high ceilings, oak flooring and a door to a large storage cupboard housing the hot water cylinder. There is a stunning semi-open plan living/dining room with a fully vaulted ceiling, two Velux windows and the aforementioned dormer window providing views across the town landscape. There are interesting architectural features including cast iron frame work and steps rising to a lavishly appointed kitchen which has a vaulted ceiling and two Velux windows. It is extensively fitted with a range of floor and wall mounted contemporary units with oak effect work surfaces and integral appliances including a five ring Neff hob with extractor, a Bosch microwave, Neff oven and grill and an integral fridge freezer. There is also a Samsung washing machine and a one and a half bowl stainless steel sink.
From the entrance hall, an oak door accesses a lavishly appointed cloakroom with marble flooring, a WC and vanity unit. The principal bedroom is to the rear of the property with a dormer window giving further views across the town landscape, and it has a vaulted ceiling. An oak door leads to a particularly well-appointed en-suite shower room which has a wall mounted vanity unit with cupboard beneath and a rectangular sink, a large walk-in shower cubicle with marble tiling, a matching WC, marble tiling to the floor and a Velux window. The second bedroom is situated to the front of the property and has a dormer window, once again providing fabulous views, a fully vaulted ceiling, attractive iron frame work on display and an oak door leading to a well-appointed en-suite bathroom, with a fully tiled bath surround, an impressive vanity unit with an oak worktop, rectangular sink with storage beneath, a matching WC, and is finished with marble tiling to the floor.
