Description
Forming the northern end of the south western quadrant of The Circus, 1 Brock Street is a superb example of Bath's Georgian architecture designed by Bath's most renowned architect John Wood the Elder and built by his son, John Wood the Younger. The property benefits from a rare triple aspect with views onto the Circus from both the front and the side of the house and the delightful western views across Gravel Walk and to Victoria Park from the rear.
The interior architectural detail includes a wide reception hall with a working fireplace and a spectacular fully cantilevered staircase spanning three floors. There are wide panelled doors with fluted architraves and the tall sash windows have working shutters. A triumph of Wood design rarely found, is the splendid oval drawing room on the first floor.
The property was fully restored by the present owners to a single family home in 2007 which has greatly enhanced the original architectural integrity of the house. The property benefits from great rooms throughout including, The Music Room, with full views of the Circus, has a marble fireplace, ceiling mouldings which have been restored to their original condition using 22 carat gold leaf and hardwood parquet floor. The dining room, with view of the Circus, has an American walnut parquet floor, wallpaper by Ralph Lauren and the original marble fireplace. Adjacent to the dining room and also on the ground floor there is an elegant and spacious handmade kitchen/breakfast room build and fitted by Thomas and Thomas.
