Fountain House, Bath

A unique open-plan city centre apartment with lift access within a stunning ‘Mansion House‘ Georgian building.

There are very few Georgian apartments that are genuinely breathtaking due to their formulaic design and proportions, However Fountain House is not a typical Georgian townhouse divided into 5 apartments. Built in c.1730 this double fronted Palladian house was substantial even by Georgian standards. Latterly it was a hotel and one of the few buildings with a lift.

This remarkable flat has a spacious open feel with a 14‘ ceiling and a stunning gothic style bay window providing an abundance of natural light. The principal open space has an elegant stone fireplace and detailed plaster cornice. The bedroom is located on the mezzanine level and is generous in size with a large built in wardrobe. The kitchen is well appointed with a gas hob and electric ovens, with plentiful cupboard storage and spacious worktops. There is a modern shower room with a spacious shower and floor to ceiling tiles.

The flat is located on the first floor approach via and elegant entrance hall and stone cantilevered staircase. The windows look out to the rear of the building away from the hustle and bustle of city noise.

Situation

Fountain House is towards the bottom of Lansdown Road opposite Alfred Street famous for the Assembly Rooms and a short walk to the wide variety of cultural, retail and high quality restaurants and pubs. The property is a 15 minute walk to Bath Spa mainline railway station (London Paddington 75 minutes direct link).
