Designed by Robert Adam (c. 1790) and located immediately adjacent to
the world-renowned Pulteney Bridge (Robert Adam c. 1790).
This beautifully restored, late-Georgian apartment is perfectly
situated in the heart of the city of Bath, overlooking the Avon River
and Pulteney Bridge.
This ideal location is visually stunning with views of the river, the
city, and the rolling countryside beyond. It has been lauded as the
best location in the city of Bath. This Robert Adam designed building
is featured in many Bath postcards and souvenirs.
The accommodation consists of a large reception room with dining
area,
an open-plan kitchen, two double bedrooms, a gallery/occasional
bedroom (which overlooks the reception room and has a spectacular
view
of the river), a large full bathroom and shower room, (en suite to
one
of the double bedrooms).
The reception room is magnificent with 14-foot ceilings and original
cornicing designed by Robert Adam. The furnishings are a beautiful
blend of antique and contemporary. A gas coal effect fireplace adds
warmth and beauty to this stately room. The colour scheme is in
neutral shades and therefore very soothing to the senses. The lulling
sounds from the river below make this a tranquil and relaxing
environment.
The kitchen has been designed to complement and add to the overall
appearance of the reception room. The cabinets are made of birch with
beautiful inlaid mahogany detailing. The appliances are of the
highest
calibre with the range and cook top designed by Smeg. Hidden behind
the cabinets are a full-sized refrigerator with freezer, microwave
oven, and full-sized washer and dryer.
The gallery, accessible by an enclosed staircase, was created to be
used as a comfortable lounge in which to enjoy music, television, a
good book, or pleasant conversation. It can also be used as an
additional bedroom since its furnishings include a double-sized sofa
bed.
This apartment is an exquisite retreat nestled in the centre of town.
The views are unsurpassed and the location could not be better for
those wanting to be in the heart of Bath and yet have the quiet
solitude of a country estate. This is an exceptional property for the
discerning traveler.
