A large two-bedroom first floor apartment situated on Bath’s grandest street, Great Pulteney Street. The property is in need of renovation and is being sold with no onward chain.

Communal hall • Reception hall • Sitting room • Kitchen • Two bedrooms • Bathroom

This is an excellent opportunity to acquire a two-bedroom apartment in need of renovation situated on the first floor within a Grade I listed Georgian townhouse. Situated on the much sought after Great Pulteney Street, leading from Sydney Gardens and the Holburne Museum to the city centre.
The sitting room and kitchen are currently separated by a stud wall which subject to consents could be removed to provide an open-plan space. A bedroom sits adjacent, also looking out to the front. To the rear of the property is the principal bedroom with an ensuite bathroom to the side, also separated by stud wall. We think there is an opportunity to re-work the layout of this property to provide a main bathroom to the apartment. The property is located on the favoured Henrietta Park side of the street with leafy park views to the rear.

Situation
Great Pulteney Street was built in 1789 and is one of the best addresses in Bath. It is crowned at both ends, to the East by the Holburne Art Museum and to the West by the Robert Adam designed Pulteney Bridge and the picturesque fountain of Laura Place. This street is a historic place to live, having been home to William Wilberforce, among others.
A short, level walk from the building leads to the eclectic collection of shops and restaurants that the city has to offer, as well as a nearby Waitrose supermarket. Behind Great Pulteney Street is Bath Recreation Ground, home to Bath Rugby, whilst the picturesque canal path leading to Bradford on Avon is 300m away, just behind the Holburne Museum.
Bath is a UK world heritage city famous for its Roman origins and Georgian architecture and its cosmopolitan lifestyle with good communications. It is served by a mainline railway service providing easy access to London and Bristol. The M4 motorway is accessed at junction 18 approximately 10 miles to the north.

The next steps...

Before making an offer on a property you will want to consider your financial situation, your income and outgoings.

Will you finance the purchase of your next property from the sale of an existing property which can put you in a chain, arrange a mortgage through your bank or buy the property outright.

To help you finance your next property purchase, we have a long established relationship with an independent mortgage broker who can discuss your situation with you.

Remember that having a 'mortgage decision in principle' can make you a more attractive buyer when you make an offer on a property. Contact our mortgage advisers for free, no obligation and impartial advice.

Some advantages of a broker are:

  • They do all the legwork for you, working on your behalf with the lender
  • They compare wholesale mortgage rates from a large number of banks and lenders all at once
  • Their wholesale interest rates can be lower than retail (bank branch) interest rates
  • They offer more loan options because they work with numerous banks and lenders
  • They can finance tricky deals because of their knowledge and various lending partners
  • They are typically easier to get in contact with, and are less bureaucratic.

However advantages of working with your bank are:

  • You may be able to build off an existing relationship (and gain discounts if you have a checking or savings account)
  • You may already know the banker who will handle your mortgage
  • Banks may be more accountable than a smaller shop
  • They may offer lower interest rates in some cases
  • Their ability to add mortgage to existing banking profile and make automatic payments from linked account.

When you see a property you are interested in on our website, call us 24/7 to arrange a viewing. Or if you prefer, get in touch via our website and we will call you back to find a time to view the property that suits you.

Once you’ve found a property you want to buy, it’s time to make an offer. A bit of negotiation is to be expected, however don't offer so little that you end up in a lengthy negotiation process, as you might lose the property altogether if someone else makes a higher bid.

If other offers have been made on a property we aren't legally able to tell you what they are, but we may indicate if they were close to the asking price.

If you have a property to sell, why not see how we can help you.
