Edward Street, Bathwick, Bath BA2


Description
Two bedroom second floor, light and airy apartment in an exceptional double bow fronted Grade II* listed building in the heart of Bath, just off Great Pulteney Street, with fine views over Georgian Bath. Kirkness House, dating from circa 1800, was a school for young ladies until 1936. This elegant apartment retains many period features including tall sash windows, and ornate cornicing.

Steps from the street lead up to a projecting porch and grand Doric columns supporting a guttae frieze cornice. The entrance hall is equally impressive with tessellated floor, and stained glass inserts to the inner door. A Bath stone staircase leads up to the apartment which has an inner hall opening onto the grand drawing room which with high ceilings, sash windows and views up Bathwick Hill, make it a very imposing space. There are stripped wooden floors and a period fireplace with useful shelved alcoves on either side of the chimney breast. The light hall also opens out onto the first bedroom which has three windows, two of which are in the bowed elevation, a unique architectural feature, and offering views over Bath Recreation Ground. The second bedroom is equally impressive with two bay windows flooding the room with sunlight. There is a fitted kitchen with maple units and wooden floor and the bathroom is fully tiled and has a washing machine. Accessed from the communal hallway, there is also an additional private storeroom. This space could be used as it is at present or as a small study with a window providing natural light.

Edward Street is located just east of the river Avon, and very close to the well-known Great Pulteney Street, Henrietta Park and Laura Place. Within walking distance is the Bath Recreation Ground, home of the Bath Rugby team, Waitrose and all the unique shops, bars and restaurants that Bath is famous for, as well as 0.7 miles’ walk from Bath Spa station with a journey time to London Paddington in 84 minutes. Bath is a World Heritage Site famed for its Georgian architecture and Roman heritage and provides an extensive range of business, entertainment and cultural facilities along with two universities. There are many well regarded state and independent schools. Junction 18 of the M4 motorway is about 10 miles to the north and Bristol International airport is approximately 20 miles to the northwest.
