DESCRIPTION
One of the Georgian city’s premier residential addresses. Enjoying a semi pastoral idyl (to both front and rear). This elegant apartment occupies the first floor of one of the Grade I Listed Eighteenth Century Townhouses that make up Bath’s only complete ‘residential’ square. Significantly occupying the whole of the first floor of this fine listed eighteenth century house, this charming two bedroom apartment is an exciting opportunity for any discerning purchaser looking for a proper piece of Georgian Bath of their own. The property enjoys a fabulous outlook over the Square and private gardens to the front and of the Golf Course and High Common from its balcony to its rear. In the same family ownership for nearly fifty years, this elegant and spacious apartment may well benefit from some minor updating and improvement, but it has been a much loved and cherished home and represents an exciting and rare opportunity for any new owner. Certainly not to be relegated to a cursory online inspection, an accompanied viewing of this delightful home comes highly recommended.

LOCATION
Situated behind the world famous Royal Crescent and built by John Palmer between 1790 and 1794, St James Square is an extremely well kept secret and enjoys the distinction of being Georgian Bath's only completed residential square. Whether you are enjoying well earned liquid refreshment in the legendary St James’s Wine Vaults, or a late breakfast in the café/delicatessen opposite or enjoying a more contemplative moment in the lovingly kept and exclusive residents gardens at its heart. this idyllic location has a serenity that is all its own. An ancient and long established Chemist and handy newsagent complete the picture
