    About this property

    • No.5 Brock Street is a rare and substantial whole house situated on the desirable south side of this famous picturesque street, which connects two of Bath's most iconic landmarks: the Royal Crescent and The Circus. This elegant family home offers approximately 5,000 square feet of meticulously presented living space spread over six floors.

      As a Grade II* Listed property, it underwent an extensive refurbishment in 2019, executed to the highest standards. The renovation seamlessly integrates modern infrastructure with the home's original architectural features, preserving its historical integrity while providing contemporary style and functionality.

      The house is rich in architectural details, including a beautifully crafted staircase, original fireplaces, intricate ceiling architraves, functional shutters, and a striking Venetian window on the front façade. A unique aspect of this property is its access to outdoor spaces on three levels. The drawing room features a balcony that spans all three floor-to-ceiling windows facing south over the garden and includes an overhead canopy. From the kitchen, a spacious decked terrace suitable for dining and leisure descends via steps to the garden. Additionally, the guest bedroom offers access to a large patio and the garden.

      Upon entering, you're immediately captivated by the impressive feeling of light and space, as well as the tranquillity afforded by the southerly aspect of the garden. All principal rooms overlook the gardens and provide views of the diverse trees in the parkland of Royal Victoria Park. It is not hard to see and appreciate the quality and the authenticity of this well-loved period family home. The house provides the perfect layout for a Georgian townhouse and an excellent balance of accommodation, with the kitchen on the much sought-after ground floor, with adjacent dining room, and the classic two room footplate of the first floor drawing room and withdrawing room. The principal bedroom is situated on the second floor with walk in dressing room and en suite bathroom. Three generous bedrooms and a family bathroom are located on the top floor. The garden floor provides a guest bedroom with en suite shower room and direct access to the garden. A cosy family room is also located on this floor, which could be utilised as a sixth bedroom, as well as a stylish shower room. The lower ground floor offers excellent storage including a generous utility room, boiler room, wine cellar and storeroom.

      Externally

      At the rear of the property is the most delightful, landscaped, walled garden with a magnificent specimen Robinia tree at its centre. Rare for Georgian houses, this wonderful garden can be accessed via a large terrace leading from the kitchen, as well as double doors from the lower ground floor. The garden has been carefully designed to create a large dining terrace perfect for al fresco dining, lawns, well stocked borders, and a screened play area. The backdrop of Royal Victoria Park and its many mature specimen trees provides a blanket of green which is rare to find in a city environment. There is also a large timber garden store at the rear of the garden and gated access on to the park behind.

      To the front of the property, steps lead down to a small courtyard and a separate entrance to the property.
