Set amidst Bath’s rich history, both old and new, Sydney Place’s most famous resident was Jane Austen, who lived at number four. From the same period and just across the road is Sydney Gardens and the Holburne Museum, both of which have featured in the Netflix series Bridgerton. ‘A walk along Daniel Mews at the rear of the property, through Henrietta Park, will bring you onto Great Pulteney Street – the most famous, wide, and elegant street in Bath. From there, you can continue to Pulteney Bridge, which resembles the Rialto Bridge in Venice and overlooks the impressive weir.’ Perfect in setting, the apartment exudes great character, showcasing signs of its impressive age with several period features. ‘The main thing about the property that struck me was how quiet it is, despite being only a stone's throw from the city centre.’ ‘The sun shines into the living room in the morning and into the two rear bedrooms in the afternoon. The courtyard is the perfect place to enjoy a glass of wine, especially in the late afternoon on a sunny day.’ ‘It’s a wonderfully cosy and very private home.’ ‘The neighbours, mostly professionals, are friendly. We often get together for social occasions such as summer barbecues and Christmas parties.’ ‘For those with a more sporting nature, Bath Rugby ground is close by. The nearby Bath Spa Hotel offers spa and leisure facilities, and the Kennet & Avon Canal – ideal for walking and cycling out into the countryside is just a few minutes from the front door.’ ‘There is a bus stop at the top of Great Pulteney Street, and the train station – offering services to London Paddington and Bristol Temple Meads – is in walking distance.’ ‘I will miss my neighbours, the brilliant pharmacy on Argyle Street, Amtico (an excellent Italian restaurant), a walk in Henrietta Park or Sydney Gardens, and a visit to the local pub, the Pulteney Arms.’ Additional Information: Postcode: BA2 6NF Local Authority: BANES.
