Summary - 18a, Portland Place BA1 2RZ
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Characterful two‑bedroom Bath flat with private garden and long lease.
Grade II listed Georgian lower‑ground apartment
A handsome lower‑ground Georgian apartment on Portland Place, offering classic Bath proportions and a private entrance. The generous sitting/dining room features oak flooring and a Bath‑stone fireplace that give immediate period character, while two double bedrooms provide flexible living for a couple, small family or buy‑to‑let tenant.
Practical benefits include a long lease (965 years remaining, share of freehold), permit parking nearby, and useful cellar and vault storage. The compact private courtyard garden with bespoke Ironart balustrade is a rare outside space in a central terrace setting, ideal for morning coffee or small gatherings.
Important points to note: the building is Grade II listed, which brings planning and maintenance restrictions and may complicate alterations. The basement vaults are not tanked, so they can be prone to damp and will need careful use or future waterproofing. The property carries an annual service charge (circa £2,400) and has average broadband speeds.
Overall, this is a well‑proportioned, characterful city apartment in a coveted Bath location, suited to those who value period charm, strong transport links to Bath Spa station, and long‑term ownership security via a long lease/share of freehold. Buyers seeking large private gardens or unrestricted modernisation should factor in the listed‑building constraints and cellar maintenance needs.
