Property Details:

As you walk through the impressive Georgian doors at the prestigious address of Blakes at The Circus in central Bath, you have a glimpse of its history. An elegant arched hallway leads you up a lovely staircase with cupolas, strewn with flower garlands and musical cupids, all original 17th century decorative plasterwork. The flat itself is spacious, serene and refined, and all the rooms have wonderful vistas. It was awarded 5 stars by the Tourist Board for quality and service.

The generous Georgian living room overlooks the world famous Circular Bath stone terrace and magnificent central plane trees, as does the smart and well equipped kitchen. There is an intimate dining area with seating for two by the window to enjoy street vignettes over a leisurely meal and a folding table that seats 4-6 for further entertaining. Both rooms are well equipped with all the mod-cons.

The bedroom is spacious and quiet with a king size bed (converting into twin beds as required), plenty of fitted storage and a floor to ceiling window overlooking beautiful stone-walled gardens and Victoria Park which spreads out in front of the Royal Crescent.

There is a Victorian styled bathroom with a romantic freestanding bath, set on marble tiles. Underfloor heating here adds to your comfort and well-being. This is placed by huge shuttered windows looking out onto the surrounding park and gardens. There is also a generous hand-basin with luxury toiletries.

It is the original hub of Bath with the Royal Crescent and Assembly rooms only a stroll away and all of Bath`s cultural heritage, its wonderful museum, galleries, shopping and fine-dining, surrounding you like the Bath stone Circus itself. Nearby St. James Square has an Italian deli, a coffee shop with free wi-fi, newsagents, florist and organic grocery store for all the little luxuries.
