Home description
Situated between Bath's famous Royal Crescent and the Kings' Circus, this lovely maisonette has been thoughtfully and tastefully renovated to provide a most attractive and spacious apartment occupying the first and second floors of a Grade 11 listed building located in a pedestrian street.The main door into the building leads to a communal hallway, with the apartment entrance door on the first floor. Once inside the apartment's private hallway, a door leads off to a spacious and tastefully furnished dining/sitting room, from which the well-equipped kitchen opens off. The two bedrooms and bathroom are reached by an open staircase. The maisonette is carpeted throughout and retains much period charm in its retained Georgian features, furnishings and ambiance. All the rooms are light and airy and the overall effect is one of charm and character.
