Situated on one of Bath's most famous streets, this stunning, spacious Grade I-listed Georgian townhouse has the wow factor and then some. The highlight for us has to be the outdoor space. Step out through French doors in the living room to the upper balcony with wrap-around glass balustrades offering panoramic views across this elegant city's skyline to Bath Abbey and the wooded hills beyond. We love this spot – watch the world go by in the artisan quarter of Walcot Street below as you sip a glass of Champagne. There's also a roof terrace – this wonderful suntrap is perfect for alfresco dining. Inside, you really do feel like you're in a Jane Austen novel, with the high ceilings, sash windows and candelabras in the grand dining room. We particularly adore the original house kitchen, which has been converted into a second living space but retains its original period features, from bread ovens to Belfast sinks and open fireplaces – it makes a charming snug. That's not to say this home is like a museum, though – the old has been skillfully blended with the new – think modern chandeliers, a comfy u-shaped sofa, and a contemporary freestanding bath. There's...Read more a hidden surprise at this house, too – a vast 550 square-foot function room with a polished concrete floor, which can be rented for an additional fee. This was previously used as an artist's studio, event space and workshop, so it has a range of uses. The location is fabulous too – it’s a five-minute walk from the High Street, while attractions such as The Roman Baths, Victoria Art Gallery, Bath Abbey and the Thermae Spa are all within an easy ten-minute stroll.Read less
