Located on the corner of prestigious Brock Street, Bath and the architecturally important King's Circus is this fully refurbished two double bedroom top floor apartment. Designed by John Wood the Elder and completed by John Wood the Younger between 1754 and 1759, this iconic Grade I listed building has an elaborate façade with superimposed orders of Roman Doric, Ionic and Corinthian paired columns and appropriate entablatures. A grand entrance hall with original stone flooring has stairs leading to the third floor apartment, which offers a beautifully appointed open plan sitting/kitchen/dining room, bathroom, two double bedrooms and views over the two hundred year old plane trees in the Circus and Bath.

The owners say: “The apartment has been completely redecorated throughout, with new kitchen, new bathroom, and new flooring benefiting from acoustic underlay which creates an airy, spacious and peaceful feel. We call it the sundial apartment as the sun moves around the flat all day, complementing lovely views from Bath Abbey over to Sion Hill. A skylight floods our hall with light where you’ll find a useful utility cupboard with washer/dryer and access to a substantial private loft. The open plan sitting room has a thoughtfully designed kitchen with quartz-worktop, built in oven with a steam feature, induction hob, dishwasher and fridge/freezer. This space is all south facing and has a double width window allowing the sunlight to stream in. Although the Circus is at the centre of the World heritage city of Bath we’re at the top of the building making this an incredibly peaceful property. We are also extremely lucky to share and hugely enjoy the largest courtyard in the Circus, a rare and valuable feature.”

“There are two double bedrooms both benefiting from stunning views across gardens and Sion Hill. The master bedroom has built in wardrobes all the way across the width of one wall comprising two double wardrobes with drawers and a useful single wardrobe. The bathroom has a quartz worktop with under mounted basin, an enamel bath with shower over, heritage tiles throughout and powerful inline extractor. We have tried to blend traditional and contemporary style throughout the whole apartment - respecting its heritage, but making it work for twenty first century life with USB points in sockets, a high efficiency gas central heating system, engineered oak flooring with acoustic underlay and low energy light fittings throughout.”

“We wanted an apartment in a Georgian town house right in the centre of Bath and you can’t really better this. The Circus, and Brock Street which links it to the Royal Crescent are two of the best known locations in Bath and it is great to be right in the heart of the city. Two doors away is the Circus restaurant, serving extremely good modern European food and around the corner is the pedestrianised Margaret’s Buildings with its unique jewellery shop, art galleries, antiquarian book shop, independent clothing stores, hairdresser’s and Green Bird Café, renowned for the best breakfast in Bath. The Royal Crescent leads into Victoria Park, the Excel tennis courts and the beautiful Botanical Gardens. It is a gentle stroll down the hill into Bath for shopping in Waitrose and for the other delights of Bath including theatres, art galleries, bars, restaurants and shops. Bath Spa station is 0.8 miles away with very frequent fast trains to London.”

“We have really enjoyed living in this historic building in such a peaceful, airy apartment with great views, right in the heart of Georgian Bath with literally everything on our doorstep.”
