History
Argyle House occupies a site closely associated with Bath's rich Nonconformist heritage and the historic Argyle Chapel community, established in 1789. For generations, the surrounding buildings played an important role in the religious, educational and social life of the city, with Grove Street serving as the location of the Argyle Chapel Day School, founded in 1844. The chapel flourished under the renowned Rev. William Jay, whose ministry helped establish the congregation as one of Bath's most influential religious communities.

Today, following a careful and sympathetic restoration, Argyle House has been thoughtfully reimagined as an exclusive collection of luxury apartments. The conversion preserves the character and historical significance of the original building while introducing the highest standards of contemporary living. This sensitive blend of heritage architecture and modern design ensures that an important part of Bath's history continues to thrive.

Location
Argyle House is situated close to the banks of the River Avon on Grove Street, which is just off Pulteney Bridge and Argyle Street.

Argyle House is conveniently located for access to the Recreation Ground (home of Bath Rugby), Bath Spa station, and Sydney Gardens and the Holburne Museum, from where one can access the Kennet and Avon canal tow path for pleasant walks towards Bathampton and beyond.
