Flat for sale in St James Square, Bath BA1

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.
