Stunning three bedroom apartment in one of Bath's landmark buildings situated in the very heart of the World heritage city of Bath, with spectacular dual aspect views. Adjacent to Bath Abbey, the River Avon, Pulteney Bridge and Weir, within a stone’s throw of Waitrose and a short flat walk to Bath Spa railway station, the location is ideal.

The fourth floor apartment is one of the largest and best positioned in the Empire* and it also benefits from an underground parking space, a great rarity in central Bath (indeed most Empire apartments are without).

There is a large double aspect reception room which is bright and sunny, and an adjacent dining room, or third bedroom. There is a flexible layout, as there are two further double bedrooms with ample wardrobe space, an en-suite shower room, a spa bathroom, separate kitchen, internal hall and internal storage.

There are spectacular panoramic views from all principal rooms – South to Bath Abbey and over Parade gardens, the Bath Recreation Ground and up to Prior Park and East over the Avon, Pulteney Bridge and Weir and out to countryside beyond.

Extensive communal facilities include an administrator on-site, two lifts, impressive lounge and dining rooms, three guest suites, cinema room, laundrette, billiard room, craft room, exercise room, sauna, library and award winning roof garden. There are also many communal activities including regular Sunday lunches if you want to take part.

This spacious apartment in the Empire will appeal to those seeking the very best secure base in the heart of the city, with excellent entertaining space and glorious panoramic views – with Bath’s fashionable shopping areas on the door step.

The apartment would be perfect either as a principal residence or as a second home because it is secure, with a concierge and underground parking and is located close to Bath Spa railway station and with easy access to Bristol airport.

This apartment is just one of eight in the Empire designated as 3 bedroom and just one of five apartments with the most favoured dual aspect views. The last time such an apartment was on offered for sale was in 2001. So probably the finest apartment in the Empire to be offered for sale for a least a decade.

Viewing highly advised.

*The Empire was originally built as a luxury hotel in 1901, commissioned by the Admiralty in 1939, and, in the mid-1990s converted into exclusive apartments for the over 50s. The service charge is the same for all apartments, regardless of size.
