2 bed Flat For Sale £595,000
Exceptional attention to detail and a love of period properties are the backbone of this glorious refurbishment of the Second Floor Flat, 18 Royal York Crescent.
Purchased in a somewhat perilous state, the property has undergone a painstaking restoration and refurbishment programme; reinstating lost period features, refurbishing sash windows and repairing the original shutters. Coupled with the installation of a bespoke state of the art kitchen and two new bath / shower rooms the result is a stunning period apartment, with far-reaching views situated on the doorstep of Clifton village.
In line with the refurbishment of the apartment, the owners have begun refurbishment works of the glamourous communal entrance hall, with its wide entrance arch and elegant turned-balustrade staircase.
From here, an opaque part-glazed door leads into the apartment itself, and a welcoming light-filled entrance hall. With the second bedroom directly opposite, there is a framed picture window affording views towards Knoll Clump on the outskirts of Bath in the distance.
The entrance hall itself provides plenty of storage, with a fitted double cupboard offering a perfect repository for tidying away coats and shoes, along with additional under stair storage for those extra bits and bobs. An entry 'phone links down to the communal front-door, and the high ceilings are refreshed with a new ceiling rose and drop pendent lighting - a feature of much of the rest of the apartment.
The 26' open plan kitchen and sitting room is however the property's showstopper; with a bespoke wooden kitchen topped with a quartz work top providing an exquisite and social space to unwind or entertain, whilst looking down the room to the twin shuttered sash windows and those fabulous far-reaching views.
The kitchen itself is exquisite; a large sociable central island (complete with fitted wine-fridge and further storage) off-sets the kitchen from the sitting area and provides plenty of prep-space, as well as a state of the art Elicia ”Nikola Tesla” switch ceramic hob and downward extractor fan. Wrapped around two walls are a bank of hand-built oak finished floor and wall-mounted storage cupboards; housing a neff electric oven / grill and separate microwave / combi-oven, integrated full height Siemens fridge/ freezer, integrated Bosch washing machine and an AEG dishwasher, Franke stainless steel sink with ”Insinkerator” and beautifully detailed wooden cupboards and drawers.
The sitting room provides a lovely light-filled space with a period style fire surround and cast-iron hearth. Both of the shuttered sash windows are finished with hand-made cabinets beneath, providing a perfect window seat to take it in the views and useful storage underneath.
Adjacent to the sitting room is a versatile second bedroom, with plenty of space to double as a spare room or home office.
The master bedroom is a wonderful size, situated to the rear of the property and with a fabulous retained Georgian style cast-iron fire grate, and twin shuttered sash windows with views over Clifton roof-tops towards Leigh Woods. This en-suite shower room fitted with an enclosed shower cubicle, tiled floor and walls, wall mounted ”Laufen” wash basin and w.c, mirrored cupboard and feature heated towel pole.
The family bathroom is beautifully fitted too, with porcelain tiles, underfloor heating and a three piece white suite comprising a panelled bath with an overhead rose-bowl shower head and hand-held attachment, wall mounted w.c, feature washbasin and mirrored cupboard over, heated towel ladder and a fitted storage cupboard.
Outside:
Royal York Crescent has the benefit of a well-maintained communal garden stretching for almost the full-width of the crescent, and accessed via several gates leading into it. The communal garden is laid mostly to lawn, with richly planted mature borders, specimen trees and informal outdoor dining tables, chairs and benches dotted throughout.
