Belgrave Crescent Walcot, Bath
£850,000

Description

Belgrave Crescent were originally listed as a particularly elaborate High Victorian terrace, fusing the Georgian tradition with the contemporary taste for decoration and variety. Today the terrace provides comfortable family homes over three/four floors with almost all providing stunning far reaching views over the city. The desirability of the location is further warranted by the fact that the current owners have made this their home for over 30+ years. A much loved family home, well kept and evidently well maintained through the years. The property is now sold with no onward chain.

Ground Floor

You enter the property into the hallway which provides access to two reception rooms on this floor and stairs to both lower and upper floors. The room to the front aspect is currently used as a double bedroom and has stripped wooden floors, feature period fireplace, cupboards to the alcove, picture rail and cornice with a 2-pane sash window to the front aspect. The room to the rear aspect spans the width of the house and is currently used as a sitting room but has previously been used as a principal bedroom. The room offers stunning far reaching views across the city through two large 2-pane sash windows, stripped wooden flooring, feature period fireplace and shelves to the alcoves, decorative cornice and ceiling rose.

First Floor

To the first floor you find a large double bedroom to the rear again with two large 2-pane sash windows providing even more glorious elevated and far reaching views across the city. The room is carpeted with fitted wooden wardrobes to the alcoves, feature period fireplace, picture rail and loft access. You also find a large family bathroom at this level with tiled flooring, bath, washbasin, walk-in shower and WC with linen cupboard. There are options at this level to create a separate WC, split the bedroom to provide a bathroom and create a further bedroom, as others have done in the terrace.

Lower Ground Floor

You descend the stairs from the hallway and enter into the kitchen diner which whilst being below ground level is a lovely light room. It has stripped wooden flooring throughout with bespoke fitted wooden cupboards and shelving with space for appliances. There is a central Range oven with extractor above.
