Description

Allenby House is a substantial, detached Victorian building converted into six apartments, situated within the Conservation Area on the northern slopes of Bath. Flat 5 has recently been renovated throughout, but still retains all its original features such as 11 ft. high ceilings with original cornicing, sash windows with working shutters and cast-iron fireplaces. The property is surrounded by extensive, level, mature communal gardens with parking.

An external door to the side of the building opens into a lobby providing access to apartments 5 and 6.

Once through the front door to Flat 5, you are greeted by an impressive hallway finished with parquet flooring and a good-sized storage cupboard. To the front of the property there is a spacious sitting room featuring a cast iron fireplace and a large bay window overlooking the communal gardens.

The property has two spacious double bedrooms. The master bedroom is finished with fitted wardrobes and an internal en-suite shower room. It benefits from a bay window with views to the rear over the communal gardens.

The second double bedroom, currently being used a study, is situated to the front of the property with three superb sash windows, allowing ample light to flood in.

To the rear of the property is a good-sized kitchen/dining room with a newly fitted, well-appointed Neptune kitchen in place with ample space for a dining table.

Additionally, there is a family bathroom finished with a bath with shower over, hand basin, WC and heated towel rail.
