Description
A fine example of a renovated duplex apartment. A 3-bedroom upper Maisonette with exceptional interiors, in a prime Bath location.
Number eight is a Grade II listed Georgian townhouse in a convex crescent of nine terrace houses – the ‘west wing’ to the prestigious Lansdown Crescent. Built in the early 1790s, Lansdown Place West was designed by John Palmer and features beautiful architectural details from the period.
The upper maisonette is one of three residencies in property; two sharing the communal access through the front door and entrance hall. Stairs up lead to the private entrance and onto a half landing where there’s a utility room and WC, then to the first floor landing to the main accommodation. Here, light oak Trunk flooring seamlessly transitions from one room to another, creating a luxe flow through the whole of this floor. The elegant living room and dining room are connected with an archway for an open-plan feel and benefit from the light that dual-aspect windows provides. Views to the front are across Bath and to the hills beyond; at the rear, they overlook the attractive gardens. There’s a calmness created by the interior designer decor: breathable, natural Venetian plaster covers the walls and bespoke fireplaces are furnished in ribbed Walnut and Calacatta and Travertine marble. Original cabinetry is inset either side of the fireplaces, there are 4-panel iron radiators and alabaster wall lights (all light fittings have been updated throughout).
The quality fixtures and fittings - and designer touches - continue into the kitchen, where there’s Shaker solid oak in-frame cabinetry, Calcutta Viola marble worktops and breakfast bar, and an aged brass extractor fan/hood over a range cooker with double ovens. A deep ceramic sink in front of a large Georgian window features a Quooker tap and a walk-in larder provides extra storage.
Stairs up to the second floor are carpeted, as are the three bedrooms here. The principal bedroom suite has views to the rear gardens, an ensuite shower room and dressing area. The second bedroom has a fireplace, built-in wardrobe and views to the front, while the third bedroom is smaller and currently set up as a useful study. The main bathroom has exceptional furniture and fixtures including Waterworks aged brass taps, a Water Monopoly bath tub and a custom Walnut vanity with Arabescato marble top.
