Situation
Sydney Buildings is a quiet tributary off Bathwick Hill with a select number of properties backing onto the Kennet and Avon Canal. It is also very close to the local amenities on Bathwick Hill which include a Tesco Metro, lovely Emma the florist, and a great little coffee shop. The City Centre is within walking distance and has an abundance of culture, restaurants, shops, educational and leisure facilities. Furthermore, Bath Spa mainline railway station is easily accessed from Sydney Buildings and has direct links to London Paddington, Bristol and the South West.
Description
No. 2 Sydney Buildings is a fine Grade II listed mid-terraced Regency townhouse with versatile accommodation spanning four floors.
The house has been much-loved by the current owners and is now ready for its next phase of ownership. Full of character and charm and with some retained period features. The west facing garden provides views over the canal which are of particular note. The front of the house faces east and overlooks the stunning walled gardens of George Street.
Entering the house via the front door, you are welcomed into a light and spacious entrance hall. Straight ahead, you find a super double reception room spanning the whole of the ground floor. Large sash windows with original shutters give delightful views across the canal. A marbel corbel fireplace is a fine centrepiece with a gas fire (not tested). The adjoining with-drawing room is also charming and has a black stone Regency bull’s eye fireplace, flanked either side by bookcases.
Downstairs there is an attractive lobby that leads to the back door and onto the garden. Here you find a very handy cloakroom.
A door leads you into the open plan kitchen/breakfast room which is a very comfortable place to be. The kitchen has a comprehensive range of maple units, a cream aga and a large Fisher and Paykel fridge freezer. The kitchen opens to a lovely dining area with French doors out to the garden. There is another fireplace with double cupboards and glass shelves to either side.
To the rear of the kitchen is a very handy utility area and two vaults, one which is a great little workshop and the other racked out for storage. There is a cupboard that houses one of two hot water cylinders. Back in the hall there is also a good sized understairs cupboard.
Upstairs
On the first floor there are two wonderful bedrooms; the first, to the front, has views over the charming gardens of George Street. It is currently utilised by our client as a study with built-in desking units and bookshelves, but could easily be used as a bedroom. A marble fireplace has two period built-in cupboards to either side.
To the rear of the house and enjoying wonderful views over the city is the master bedroom. There are built-in wardrobes and an ensuite shower room.
On the top floor are two good-sized double bedrooms and a family bathroom. Dual loft access allows for some useful extra storage space, equipped with work surfaces, full light and power, and double insulation under the floor and in the joists. The front loft also gives door access to the roof valley. On the landing a cupboard houses the boiler and a second hot water cylinder.
Externally
The gardens have been very thoughtfully laid out, predominantly paved with various planted areas which include herbaceous and perennial plants and a magnificent white magnolia tree. To the far end, attractive iron art railings lead you down to a lower level of garden and to a section which is owned by the Canal and River Trust which is rented to the owners on an annual rent.
