Summary - 1 FLAT 2 FOUNTAIN BUILDINGS BATH BA1 5DU
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Charming one-bedroom listed apartment in central Bath with long lease and storage.
Beautifully presented ground-floor one-bedroom in Grade II listed Georgian building
990-year lease; low ground rent (£10) favourable for buyers
Service charge circa £2,205.72 per year
EPC rating E; heating via electric storage heaters
Listed status restricts alterations and may complicate renovations
Private basement storage cage and communal rear courtyard included
Very high local crime rate — consider security measures
This ground-floor one-bedroom apartment sits within a handsome Grade II listed Georgian building in Bath city centre, marrying period character with a recent, tasteful renovation. High sash windows and elegant wood panelling give the sitting/dining room a bright, airy feel, while bespoke bedroom wardrobes and a neat modern kitchen maximise the compact 461 sq ft layout.
Practical benefits include a long lease (990 years), low ground rent, a communal courtyard and a private basement storage cage. Heating is by electric storage heaters and main fuel is electricity; an EPC rating of E reflects efficiency limits typical of older city-centre buildings.
Important considerations: the listed status restricts alterations and may complicate future works or permissions. The service charge is approximately £2,205.72 per year and the local crime level is reported as very high — factors to weigh for buyers prioritising security and ongoing costs. Council tax band A and the exceptionally long lease are positives for affordability and mortgageability.
Well suited to a first-time buyer or investor seeking a central Bath pied-à-terre or rental in a cosmopolitan student and professional neighbourhood. The apartment offers a ready-to-move-in, characterful base with clear scope to personalise within the constraints of a listed property.
