Residential Sales

Description

19 Lansdown Crescent one of twenty terrace houses, part of a serpentine terrace that follows contours of hillside built c1789-93 and designed by John Palmer the Bath City Architect. It was bought by Beckford in 1836 and linked to his main house #20 along with 1 Lansdown Place West via a linking bridge over the mews carriageway to form an entire residence.

Once inside the grand hall, a gentle staircase with barrelled ceiling leads to the first floor where the apartment entrance is located. A further internal staircase brings you to the welcoming landing where one can continue through to both the kitchen/dining room, drawing room, cloakroom and the top floor bedroom level.

A walnut floor runs nearly throughout the living space and is accompanied by retained period features as well as all the usual mod cons.

The main drawing room is extremely impressive, with a large fireplace, 3 front aspect Georgian sash windows with the most panoramic view over the city of Bath. The kitchen can also be accessed from the drawing room and has ample space for dining and entertaining.

Upstairs the 3 double bedrooms also enjoy fine vistas with the larger two having ensuite facilities. A separate shower room services the third bedroom.

Parking is easily available on the crescent via the residents permit scheme.
