Service charge approximately £2,400 per year

Local area records very high crime levels
Set on the top floor of a handsome Georgian terrace opposite Henrietta Park, this one-bedroom apartment offers an attractive city-centre base with park views. The layout includes a living room, modern kitchen-diner, bedroom, bathroom and separate cloakroom — comfortable proportions for a single buyer or couple.
Practical strengths include a share of freehold, very long lease term recorded, mains gas central heating, and permit parking for the zone. The flat is a short 0.3-mile flat walk to Pulteney Bridge and Bath city centre, ideal for commuting, culture and everyday errands.
Buyers should note material considerations: the building is historic (pre-1900) with assumed uninsulated stone walls and single-glazed windows, which can mean higher heating costs and potential retrofit expense. Service charges average £2,400pa and there is a small ground rent (£20). The local area records very high crime levels — an important factor for those prioritising security.
Overall this property suits a first-time buyer or investor seeking a characterful Bath address with good central access and park outlook. It presents straightforward cosmetic and energy-efficiency improvement potential but requires acceptance of higher service charges and the neighbourhood crime profile.
