Set on Abbey Street with direct views towards Bath Abbey, this well‑proportioned one‑bedroom apartment offers a rare central city‑centre location ideal for buy‑to‑let, short‑stay letting or a compact pied‑à‑terre. The building’s Georgian character is evident throughout with high ceilings, sash windows and a feature fireplace that give strong period appeal.
The flat measures about 575 ft² and provides a large reception room, double bedroom, separate narrow kitchen and bathroom. Chain free and offered on a long lease (approximately 960 years remaining) with a modest service charge and low ground rent, it presents straightforward ownership costs for a central Bath property.
Buyers should note there is no private outdoor space and likely no dedicated parking beyond on‑street options. The property sits in a very busy, tourist‑heavy city‑centre area with a very high local crime indicator; this is material for full‑time residents and investors planning short‑let or student tenancies. Internal condition may require modest refurbishment to maximise rental returns or holiday‑let appeal.
Overall, this is a characterful, centrally located one‑bed that offers strong visual amenity and rental potential, balanced by city‑centre constraints and the need to plan for security and possible internal updates.
