House For Sale £1,350,000
Rivers Street, Bath BA1


Description
Arranged over five floors, this beautiful house was built in the 1770s by the plasterer responsible for the decorative plasterwork in the Bath Guildhall, Daniel Fowles. The house contains remarkable examples of his work, conserved by the former owner, a specialist historic buildings architect. There are attractive fireplaces in most rooms, Georgian glazed sash windows with working shutters, and high ceilings, all providing the period framework of the house.

The lower ground floor is an empty shell, which includes the Bath stone surround of the original Georgian kitchen. There is street access to the basement area.

The ground floor front reception room is delightful, with fine plasterwork, a marble chimneypiece with alcoves either side, and two tall Georgian sash windows with working shutters. The adjacent room currently houses the kitchen with handmade wooden units. There is access out to the walled courtyard garden from this floor.

The drawing room on the first floor is a stunning reception room, with an exceptional decorative ceiling, a handsome eighteenth-century fireplace and three sash windows. The library next door has also been used as a bedroom.

The two principal bedrooms are on the second floor. The large studio room on the attic floor benefits from views towards one of Bath’s most notable landmarks, Prior Park, and a further bedroom and bathroom on this floor complete the picture.

Outside
Accessed from the ground floor, the walled garden has high Bath stone walls with a central paved terrace, with mature specimen plants including an impressive Fig tree.
